Rome Christmas Day Walking Tour
You'll then proceed to the Spanish Steps, with its lively atmosphere and stunning views down into the alleys that wind into the heart of Rome's historic center. Take a walk along Rome's most famous up-scale shopping street, Via dei Condotti - all done up in Christmas lights in honor of the holiday season before encounter one of Rome's most dramatic monuments, the Trevi Fountain.
Your stroll through Rome continues with a stop at Piazza Colonna, which contains the column erected by Marcus Aurelius and is considered by Romans to be the very center of the city. Stop at the Pantheon (exterior visit), with its impressive concrete dome and open oculus, which never fails to impress. Next, enter the colourful Christmas wonderland at Piazza Navona which hosts a local Christmas Market, where you'll hear all about the Italian Christmas Witch "la Befana".
Finally, no Christmas tour of Rome would be complete without a visit to St. Peter's Square at Vatican City where you’ll admire the impressive Nativity Scene and Christmas Tree.
Numbers are limited to a maximum of 25 people on this small group walking tour, ensuring you'll receive personalized attention from your guide.

Our tour guide was Maximus who was excellent! If you can get him, you must do so. Was lovely to walk all around Rome during Christmas to see the sites and feel the joy of the season. We had 3 kids with us who did very well. Would highly recommend this tour without hesitation.
