OVERVIEW

See the most iconic high-profile attractions in Rome, some in greater depth than others, and spend free time exploring the area around the Trevi Fountain. While driving through the Eternal City – a sobriquet first attributed to the poet Tibullus in the 1st century B.C. – you will pass most every ancient landmark, including the Colosseum, Circus Maximus and Palatine Hill, where Rome was founded. Stops will be made for deeper explorations at St. Peter’s Square within Vatican City and at the Galleria Borghese, a revered museum whose collection includes exceptional paintings by the likes of Titian, Raphael and Caravaggio. Be sure to see Bernini’s masterful sculpture “David,” which unlike Michelangelo’s earlier version, shows the hero about to release the fatal stone from his slingshot. Afterwards, you will have time to explore independently in the Trevi District, home to the famed fountain and the Spanish Steps. If you wish to dine, options are abundant.
