Full description

Discover a different side to Rome on this guided evening tour. This darker, more mysterious Rome is one where facts and legends are intertwined to stimulate the imagination as much as the eye. Your guide will bring the Eternal City’s most enthralling historical and supernatural mysteries to life in a highly entertaining and informative tour. You will stroll along winding lanes in the city's historic center and hear ghostly tales that form part of a lesser-known history of Rome. Walk in the shadows of sights such as the Campo de Fiori, Corso Vittorio Emanuele II, Via del Governo Vecchio, Via Giulia, Piazza Farnese, and Castel Sant'Angelo.

Alethea was an amazing tour guide!!! She kept it fun, and very educational, throughout our stroll through the Roman streets. She had knowledge about locations that I had seen on previous tours that the other guides didn't offer. If you're lucky enough to have her, you're in for a treat! 10/10 would do another tour with her any day!

REALLY interesting activity. I believe the only TRUE way to really know about a City history. Not very deep cause only lasts for 90 minutes but much more interesting, exciting and rewarding than the traditional tourist tours. Look for similar activities as this one and do as many as possible once is the only true way to really know about a City such as Rome.

A great tour with Cristiano, he explained everything well, was happy to answer as many questions as the group had, and tried to make it friendly for everyone from the older ones who couldn't walk as fast to the kids that came along. Recommended if you have a couple of hours in the evening to view a different side of Rome's history
