“Rome Baroque Private Tour: Squares and Fountains” itinerary
This unique tour will show you Rome's Baroque beauty. Throughout the capital, the beauty of its spectacular fountains renders the city a worldwide emblem of magnificence.
The tour takes you on a stroll to explore Rome's most beautiful squares and fountains.
Let's start with the squares: we will tour the Piazza Navona, Piazza di Spagna, Piazza di Fontana di Trevi, and Piazza della Rotonda, where the Pantheon stands. At least one Baroque fountain can be admired in each of these iconic Roman squares.
Each sculptural composition has its own history, framing the historical events of the popes, sculptures, and personages who made Rome's history unique. Let's start from Piazza di Spagna, also known as the Spanish Steps.
Your licensed guide will tell you about the fascinating story involving the Barcaccia Fountain, made by Pietro and Gian Lorenzo Bernini. This is also where you can appreciate one of Rome's best-known symbols: the Spanish Steps.
The guided tour continues to Trevi Fountain, made the world's most famous fountain by Fellini's film, “La Dolce Vita.”
Another fountain that you can't miss is in Piazza Navona, the Fountain of the Four Rivers. Bernini's fountain is the finest representative of Baroque style. Its large-scale iconography of rivers, animals, and plants speak to its importance.
The guided tour ends with a tour of the Pantheon, which may well be Rome's most unique monument. Built as a Roman temple dedicated to all gods, the dome is one the largest in the world, and the oculus in its center lights the inside, making for a surreal atmosphere.
The Baroque Rome tour is perfect for those looking for something new to appreciate all the open-air marvels that Rome has to offer. A wonderful blend of fascinating facts and art history will show you Rome's Baroque side!
