Learn the secrets of the center of Rome and how the ancient city ended up being underground the modern one. Discover the hidden gems of the center of Rome, for example: What’s the story of the elephant statue behind the Pantheon? That was a prank of an artist to a friar! And what about the optical illusion in the church where people queue to look in the mirror? That was a “marketing” campaign in the 1600s!

Itinerary
While admiring the gigantic columns of the Temple of Hadrian, you'll learn of some ancient gossip. You'll be surprised of the love triangle of the emperor Hadrian and the tragic end of the love of his life
This church hides some of the most incredible optical illusions of the city. Most travelers tough stop at the first one, and very few (like us!) will discover the other illusions of this building.
You'll enter the Pantheon and discover the secrets of the biggest solid concrete dome in the world, including an incredible light effect happening only few days per year, which was only discovered in recent years!
In this cute little square where kids play soccer after school, you'll learn the story of two artists that didn't like each other.. and showed that through sculptures!
Have you ever heard of Caravaggio? If you haven't, after this tour you will never forget him. He's one of the most famous painters of the past, loved by everyone for his very realistic and dramatic paintings, that almost look like photographs
One of the most famous and beautiful squares of Rome. But we won't just stop at the surface like most tourists do..
(from outside) Many travelers visit Piazza Navona, but very few know what's beneath it! We'll get a glimpse from the street level of the ancient Roman stadium of Domitian, where the athletic games were taking place 2000 years ago!

About Rome
Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.
Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
