Welcome to Passeggiate Romane

There is no better way to explore the Eternal City than with a Roman guide!
Your professional guide will allow you to experience Rome through the centuries - past and present, the pagan and the Christian, art and everyday life - and understand how all are inextricably combined.

Your guide can be with you for a half or a full day; your tour can be walking or by limo, minibus or public transport. In addition to tour and sightseeing services, your guide can help you with the language, the food and the shopping. Our guides are Romans who can show you typical aspects of local life. Guides know, and will show you, the real dimension of a city you will love and never forget. Our tours in Rome and our excursions out of the city are designed for the first time visitor, as well as the returning traveler who seeks a deeper understanding of Rome.

Most of the tours within the historical center of Rome are walking tours; however, we will provide our clients with transportation by limo, minibus, or bus if the service is needed or requested.

All tours are private - for your party only!

No queues to get into the Vatican or Coliseum!

 Tips for tourists
Pick pocketing is the most common problem. Men should keep their wallets in their front pocket or inside jacket pockets. Purse snatching is also commonplace, with young men on Vespas who will ride past you and grab your purse. To avoid trouble, women should stay away from the curb, and keep their purse on the wall side of their body and the strap over both shoulders across their chest. In general, don't lay anything valuable on tablets or chairs where it can be grabbed easily.

(Paolo Caliari, Verona 1528-Venice 1588)

With Titian and Tintoretto, Veronese is the third outstanding personality in the panorama of sixteenth century Venetian painting. The son of a stone-cutter, Paolo took his pseudonym from the name of his native city, where he worked in the shop of Antonio Badile. Trained in the Mannerist style of Parma's figurative culture (Correggio and Parmigianino), he very early abandoned  them for a style that was less tormented and more radiant. The effect was undoubtedly heightened by the lowered viewpoint utilized with great skill in the paintings for the Hall of the Council of Ten at Palazzo Ducale (1553-54). This was to be a highly successful stylistic approach, later emulated by Tiepolo. One of the painter's great masterpieces is the Marriage in Cana, a work of costume, as well as of religious subject.

 Monuments
The church was built in 1662-1679 on the site of the other church, which belonged to Carmelites from Monte Santo in Sicily. It has an elliptical plan with three chapels on each side and a dome. On the high altar is a painting of Vergine di Montesanto (15th century). In presbytery are bronze busts of Alexander VII, Clement IX, Clement X and Innocent XII, all by Girolamo Lucenti. The vault of sacristy has frescoes by Baciccia. The facade was modified by G.L.Bernini and C.Fontana in 1671-1678, after C.Rainaldi. The convent construction was erected by G.Theodoli. At present the church is entrusted to the Community of Messa degli Artisti, which enriched it by the works of modern art. From www.italycyberguide.com
