What to expect
Your guide meets you and charts a course through central Rome on foot, weaving between major sights and neighbourhood details most visitors miss. Expect stops at significant piazzas where fountains and facades anchor centuries of history. The guide brings humour and depth to each location, giving context without overwhelming you with facts. If you're travelling with small children, prams work well on the city's main routes. You'll cover good ground in two hours, though the pace is entirely yours—there's no racing between sites or keeping up with a larger group.
