Come for a virtual tour of Rome to lighten dark January days.
Join professional Rome tourist guide Stuart Harvey for a virtual stroll through the heart of Rome to discover some of the most iconic monuments of the Eternal City. 28 centuries of history can be divided into three periods - Rome of the Ancient Romans, Rome under the rule of the Popes, and Rome as the capital of a united Italy, and in an area less than a square mile we can admire monuments from all three periods. Ancient Roman temples and other archeological remains rub shoulders with baroque churches. Splendid fountains adorn magnificent piazzas, and the 20th century monumentalism of united Italy adds a modern touch to this beautiful city.
The Zoom link will be sent out a few days before.
