| BEST
OF ROME
Experience Rome at its best: full of sensual delights, opulence, and Italian pageantry. In this focused tour, we touch "mandatory" sites--and revisit a few to witness the magic of different light and the romance of night. From our quiet, comfortable hotel we either walk or take the Metro to the following:
The
Roman Forum, Colosseum, Palatine Hill, Trajan's Markets
- sense the debauchery and spectacle from Rome's early
palaces to arenas.
Enter
the Pantheon, first dome and place of diverse worship,
and imagine early followers of all faiths giving sacrifices
at the altar.
Choose
your favorite among Rome's myriad of glorious churches,
decorated by Michelangelo and Bernini, Caravaggio and
Lippi....
Cruise
famous piazzas and sample Rome's gourmet delights, from
Tartuffo ice cream in Navona to authentic roman feasts
in Trastevere.
Spend
a day in St. Peter's Square and the Vatican Museums,
home to a fabulous collection of Classical and Renaissance
art.
We
also leave time to simply wander the neighborhoods,
palaces, parks, gardens, ruins and--most importantly--fountains
of Rome!
