Piazza del Popolo

(Pass by)

The Piazza del Popolo (meaning The People’s Square) is located inside the northern gate of the city, which was once called Porta Flaminia. The square is situated at the beginning of Via Flaminia and was the main entrance to the city during the Roman Empire.

Piazza Navona

You will arrive at Piazza Navona, one of the most beautiful squares in the city. The square is built on the site of the ancient Domitian stadium, and it's filled with history and culture. You will be immediately strucked by the stunning Fountain of the Four Rivers, which takes center stage in the middle of the square. The fountain was designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, one of the most famous artists in Italian history, and it's a true masterpiece of Baroque art.

Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo

The Castel Sant’Angelo Rome was originally built as the tomb of Roman Emperor Hadrian in 135 AD. This mausoleum was eventually converted into a military fortress that protected Rome during the Middle Ages. Since then, it has served as the Papal Residence, a prison during the Renaissance era and now, as one of Rome’s museums. Other than serving as a repository of historical information, it is a site of immense cultural value that houses many sculptures, architecture, frescoes, and more.

Nice tour, good view of the historic part of the city. Touring with a Vespa gives you the change to see a lot in 3 hours time. The explanation can be more in detail and the Vespa in better condition, rest was good!

Vikram_K

Amazing experience getting to drive in Rome. Definitely not for those that aren’t ready to drive through crowds and don’t know how to navigate on 2 wheels. Francesco was an awesome and very educated tour guide and the spots we saw were amazing. He is “a very nice! And great success!” The best parts were being able to drive through the city and seeing so much in such little time. Highly recommend.
