Join us on this cultural tour to discover a hidden gem in the very centre of Rome, the beautiful Palazzo Altemps. This elegant 15th-century palace near Piazza Navona was built over the remains of a medieval tower and a Roman villa, and now houses part of the stunning collection of the National Roman Museum. In the company of your personal guide you’ll explore the beautiful courtyard and frescoed rooms of Palazzo Altemps and discover masterpieces of Greek, Roman and Egyptian art, including graceful statues of gods and dramatic battle scenes. A visit to Palazzo Altemps is a journey through 4,000 years of history, religion and mythology, in one of the most beautiful buildings in central Rome.
After a stroll through the streets of the centro storico, your tour will continue at Castel Sant’Angelo, an imperial mausoleum that was transformed into a fortress, prison, and even a papal palace. Although it’s one of the most iconic monuments in Rome, many are unaware of the treasures inside. Visiting Castel Sant’Angelo with our expert guide will give you a new perspective on Roman history, and allow you to discover some of the most spectacular rooms - and views - in the Eternal City.
