Visiting the Fontana di Trevi in Detail

The Fontana di Trevi is the first stop on this tour. Standing 26.3 meters high and 49.15 meters wide, it’s the largest Baroque fountain in Rome and one of the most photographed fountains worldwide. Designed by Nicola Salvi and completed by Giuseppe Pannini, this iconic fountain has appeared in many films and is a must-see for visitors.

The tour allocates about 20 minutes here, giving enough time to admire the intricate sculptures and capture photos. Since admission is free, you can spend time soaking in the atmosphere before moving on. The driver’s commentary enriches the experience, explaining the fountain’s symbolism and history, making it more meaningful than simply taking photos.

Exploring the Spanish Steps

Next, the Spanish Steps form a dramatic staircase connecting Piazza di Spagna to Piazza Trinità dei Monti. Comprising 135 steps, this monument is a favorite gathering place for both locals and travelers. Built with French diplomat Étienne Gueffier’s funding, the steps are a lively spot for people-watching.

The tour allows about 15 minutes here, and you can take in the baroque architecture and the Trinità dei Monti church at the top. The steps have no admission fee, and your driver shares context about their construction and significance, ensuring you appreciate their role in Roman daily life.

Piazza Navona’s Artistic Atmosphere

The third stop is Piazza Navona, a vibrant square built on the site of the Stadium of Domitian. Known for its fountains, cafes, and street performers, this piazza offers a lively glimpse into Rome’s past and present. Over centuries, it transitioned from a Roman racecourse to one of the city’s most scenic public spaces.

Spending about 15 minutes here, you can admire Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers and soak up the atmosphere of local life. The history of the site as an arena for Roman “agones” (games) adds depth to your visit, which the driver highlights during commentary.

The Comforts of Private Transportation and Added Amenities

The air-conditioned vehicle ensures a comfortable ride throughout your tour, while WiFi on board keeps you connected.

What’s Not Included: Entrance Tickets and Additional Planning

While the sights are iconic, it’s important to note that entrance tickets are not included in the price.
