Next, drive along the Tiber River to reach Castel Sant’Angelo, once a Roman mausoleum and later a papal fortress. This striking circular structure is a testament to Rome’s layered history.
From there, enter Rome’s historic centre with a visit to Piazza Navona, home to Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers and surrounded by vibrant cafes and street artists.

Continue your route to the Trevi Fountain, where legend says tossing in a coin ensures your return to Rome. From here, it’s just a few minutes’ drive to the Spanish Steps, ideal for a quick walk, photo stop, or a coffee break.
Next, explore Piazza Venezia, a lively square at the foot of the Capitoline Hill, and take in the grandeur of the Altare della Patria monument.

After this full day of exploration, your driver will return you comfortably to Port of Civitavecchia.
