Frequently asked questions
Can a car reach the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon and Piazza Navona?
They are in streets closed to cars. On our tours the driver leaves you at the nearest point where a car may stop and waits there: each is a few minutes on foot.
Is there a dress code in Rome's basilicas?
Yes: shoulders and knees covered, for men and women.
Does the driver guide the visits?
No: the driver takes you from one stop to the next and waits. A licensed guide can be asked for before you book.
