The Eternal City & Ancient Rome
Situated on the River Tiber, Rome, the Eternal City, is very much defined by its extraordinary history and timeless atmosphere. Much of its appeal lies in simply wandering through its streets, where ancient landmarks such as the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and the Pantheon speak for themselves.
Piazza Navona & Baroque Grandeur
Piazza Navona is a striking example of the city’s Baroque elegance. At its centre are three magnificent fountains, including Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers, while opposite stands the Sant’Agnese in Agone Church, with its celebrated façade by Borromini. Surrounded by cafés and restaurants, the piazza offers a lively atmosphere at all hours thanks to its many artists, musicians, and performers.
The Vatican, Trastevere & Local Roman Life
Across the River Tiber lies St Peter’s Square in Vatican City, one of the most impressive and recognisable spaces in Rome. Nearby lies the quaint neighbourhood of Trastevere, a contrasting perspective, known for its cobbled streets and medieval buildings. With its traditional restaurants, bars, and charming squares such as Piazza Santa Maria, Trastevere represents local Roman life at its finest.
