Rome in a single day
Private Full-Day Tour of Rome
Six hours of Rome turnkey — antiquity, the baroque and lunch, unhurried
Twenty-eight centuries in a single day — without the rush and the dash between sights. Six hours of Rome turnkey: morning light on the Colosseum, ruins and basilicas, baroque squares and fountains, quiet lanes and panoramas. Not a survey of sights but a day lived at the city’s pace: a stop at an artisan’s, coffee in an old café, lunch in the right restaurant. On foot or with a private driver, the pace is yours. With an art historian, in English, Italian and Russian.
Programme
- Ancient Rome The Colosseum and forums in the morning light, before the crowds.
- The baroque centre The Pantheon, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona.
- Hidden spots Places the guidebooks miss, and living quarters — Trastevere.
- The day’s pauses Coffee in a historic café, lunch in a restaurant with tradition (table booked).
In a day you can either gallop through ten sights or live Rome. I build the day as a story: the empire in the morning, the baroque by day, and between them coffee and lunch where Romans eat. The private format gives you the luxury of lingering where the city speaks loudest.
