Three coins in the fountain, Each one seeking happiness. Thrown by three hopeful lovers, Which one will the fountain bless? Three hearts in the fountain, Each heart longing for its home. There they lie in the fountain Somewhere in the heart of Rome. Which one will the fountain bless?
Do you know the song? Well if you don’t, you will find out what it is about in this Twilight Rome walking tour!
This 2 hour walking tour at the sunset will make you step into beauty and history!! Your guide will take you to the most famous squares of Rome: Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps! while you admire the monuments, you will be captivated by the stories behind them…tales you won’t find in books! All illuminated by the best light of the day: sunset light
Fun, knowledge, beauty and no stress with a licensed, expert Roman guide! We’ll show you the best of our city and all you have to do is relax and enjoy the sites in the best temperature and the less heat possible!
We will start the Twilight Rome walking tour with a glimpse of the real Rome: PIAZZA NAVONA – the largest of the XVII Century squares -“Piazze” in Italian.
Here you will admire Bernini’s baroque masterpiece: the FOUNTAIN OF THE FOUR RIVERS. Piazza Navona is also where you can find street artists and painters but above all…it’s here that you can get one of the best Gelato in Rome, promise!
The vibrant square will be showed at its best in the relaxed afternoon atmosphere, Walking a few blocks further along you’ll then discover the palace of the SENATE of Rome with the famous lions heads at the windows…
After this our favorite stop of the sunset city stroll in Rome is …The mighty Pantheon!* You will enter the temple and feel as though you walk on air! This magnificent temple to all gods became a Church in the VII Century … You might not be able to believe how well preserved and how large the dome is …did you know it was build in one solid piece? Look up through the hole in the dome’s centre, did you know Romans believe that no drops of water will not fall inside… even if it rains!
The next stop on our twilight walking tour through this enchanting heart of Rome will wind and weave through the narrow alleys to surprise you with – the TREVI FOUNTAIN…be ready with your coin! You will understand the meaning of the song and we’ll make sure you come back to Rome someday by having you throw a coin into the fountain but…make sure you’re not looking to see where it lands!
*PLEASE NOTE: Due to the new regulations for visiting the Pantheon, which separate time slots for visitors with or without licensed guides, access to the monument may take place independently. In these cases, your guide will tell you all about the Pantheon from the outside, and then you’ll go inside to explore at your own pace before meeting up again with your guide afterwards. If this arrangement applies to your tour, you will be informed at the time of booking.
We will then take the short walk to the SPANISH STEPS, the last stop on our walking tour and the last view the Romantic poet John Keats saw before dying in 1821. This is, above all, one of the most beautiful squares in the city! it’s hard to believe that some centuries ago this was a place where wealthy refused to visit here and broke artists once lived!
What more could you ask?! Maybe a glass of wine? Well.. You are right! We’ll toast together with a glass of wine at the end of the tour if you like!
(The cost of the wine is not included in the tour and wine stop is not compulsory)
THE Twilight Rome WALKING TOUR: TREVI, PANTHEON & Co., in 2 hours you will fall in deeply in love with our city, just like us!

EXCELLENT Based on 300 reviews Posted on Carla Buhl-de VriesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We made 2 private tours with Nicole: the baths of Caracalla and the Aqueducts. We were very happy with this friendly young woman, who knows a lot about ancient history. We will certainly join again, with Nicole, whenever we get back to Rome again!Posted on Gregg JacobTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Francesca was OUTSTANDING! Her energy and enthusiasm were palpable and contagious. Her knowledge of both art and history had all of us (aged 14-82) engaged for the entire tour. I highly recommend Joy of Rome and without question would request Francesca!!!Posted on Caroline Harding-EdgarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked the Coliseum tour and the Rome Highlights tour for our family of 4 (girls aged 8 and 5), and would thoroughly recommend. Our guides (Francesca and Grace) were energetic, engaging and informative, and tailored the tours perfectly to our girls' interests and energy levels. The girls loved it and learned a lot - and so did we!Posted on Deepti AvasthiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice tourPosted on Steven BalitTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic private tour of the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel with our guide, Sarah from Joy of Rome. She clearly knew her way around this remarkable part of Rome and shared her deep knowledge with enthusiasm and clarity. Thanks to her insights, we gained a much better understanding of Vatican City and its significance to the Eternal City. Though it was only a two hour tour, it was incredibly rewarding, absolutely worth it and highly recommended.Posted on Jerek PetrousTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joy of Rome is an exceptional tour company. We had great experiences, but Serena was seriously the best guide we’ve ever had in all the countries we’ve been to. Can’t recommend her enough!Posted on Andrea McCormickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fabulous tour with Francesca - she was great with kids, kept them engaged for 2 hours, we all learnt lots and had a really great time. Thanks for making our trip to the Colosseum so memorable!Posted on Noelle BrennanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Angela gave us a fabulous tour of the Forum, Palatine Hill and the Pantheon. It was fantastic! Her knowledge and enthusiasm was far beyond our expectations! I would highly recommend her!Posted on Carolyn GiererTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joy of Rome and our tour guide Nicole made our Colosseum experience a great one. I couldn’t have imagined taking a 4 and 5 year old into the colosseum without her. She brought a cute book, had print outs that my kids loved (and she let us take home) and completely curated the experience for families with young kids. 10/10 recommend if you are traveling with kiddos.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
