Settle in for a panoramic drive through Rome in the evening when the city is aglow and then spend hours exploring further on your own. Rome’s landmarks look even more magnificent at night when they are beautifully lighted for dramatic effect. From the comfort of your seat, you will see many of the most iconic attractions, including the Colosseum, St. Peter’s Basilica and Circus Maximus, an ancient chariot racetrack that was also used for gladiator fights and other barbaric public spectacles. Commentary will enhance your understanding of Roman life through the centuries. In time, you will arrive at Navona Square, an atmospheric plaza built over a stadium from the 1st century. The square exudes history through its trio of baroque fountains and architectural treasures such as the Sant’Agnese in Agone church. Being centrally located, the square offers all sorts of options for you to shop and dine on your own.
