Things To Do
IN ROME
All roads lead to Rome, because Rome has it all – history, culture, romance – not to mention the best gelato you’ll ever eat. Walk amongst the ancient ruins, pop into boutique shops and savour the city’s art, old and modern. Rome has enough to satisfy anyone with a thirst for world culture, and after a day of sightseeing, The Pavilions, The First Dolce, Roma, is your restful refuge.
FONTANA DI TREVI
There is more to the Trevi Fountain than throwing in a coin in the hope of returning to Rome. The fountain is a true wonder, a masterpiece of water and stone nestled between the palaces of the historic city centre.
The sculpture itself is a triumphant example of baroque art with its soft, natural lines and fantasy creatures masterfully brought to life. Discover the backdrop to this work of art, other hidden treasures and a surprising view of the fountain from a unique perspective, available only for a few, on this special tour.
