Overview

This is a small and intimate group walking tour of no more than 12 people. We'll start by the Spanish steps, where you'll learn everything about them and why they're called like this (you'll be surprised!). By the Spanish steps we'll meet the first fountain of the tour. This is where we'll begin a journey through the aqueducts of Rome! In fact this fountain is still fed today by an ancient Roman aqueduct built in 19BC! From here we'll follow the aqueduct which is, for the most part, underground. And by casually walking through this itinerary we’ll find parts of the aqueduct appearing between the modern buildings. We'll follow the aqueduct until its monumental end: the Trevi fountain. But we won't stop here. We'll get away from the crowds, turn the corner and discover the underground water reservoir that the ancient Romans built over 2000 years ago! During this walking tour you won't just see the specific site, but learn also how modern Rome was built around the ancient ruins.
