Full description
Meet your guide and fellow travelers at Piazza del Popolo, home to the Fontana dei Leoni. From here, follow your guide along one of the city’s typical narrow streets to reach Piazza di Spagna, famous for its boutiques and high-end stores. Listen to your guide share fascinating stories about the origins of the street, and the impressive fountain you’ll see along the way. Arrive at the famous Spanish Steps and admire the beauty of the Bernini's Barcaccia Fountain. Continue onto the Trevi Fountain, passing by the ruins of the Aqueduct of the Acqua Vergine which dates back to the 1st century B.C. At the fountain, toss a coin in and learn how water put the Ancient Romans so far ahead of other civilizations at the time. Visit the Virus Caprarius next, also known as the City of Water, an imperial structure used as a passageway for the Acqua Vergine. Find out about how the Ancient Roman waterways ran underground, making them masterminds of urban life. By the end of the tour, you’ll have a better understanding of life during the Ancient Roman era, and plenty of sightseeing photographs for your vacation album.
