Baroque Rome: Pantheon, Navona and Trevi

Free · no booking Loop route

Duration

Stops
10 stops

A circular walk through the heart of Rome, from the Pantheon to the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps, by way of Navona, Campo de' Fiori and the hidden squares in between. An elephant carrying an obelisk, a dome that does not exist, a temple turned customs house and an artists' rivalry that perhaps never happened the way it is told. About two hours and some four kilometres, not counting time inside the buildings.

  • It is a loop: you finish where you started.
  • Stop whenever you like. Your progress is saved on this phone.
  • The route and the texts load when you start, so it keeps working with patchy coverage.
  • The walk stays outdoors. The time does not include going inside the buildings.
  • Available in Spanish and English.
