one-day tour of Santa Maria Victorious + Castel Sant'Angelo + Piazza Navona in Rome, Italy

Day Tour of Santa Maria Vittoria, Castel Sant'Angelo and Piazza Navona in Rome, Italy Discover Rome - The Eternal City - in a whole new light on this tour organized around the sights featured in Dan Brown's sensational international bestseller. Explore Rome's beautiful churches, charming piazzas and timeless cobblestone alleys while taking in their underlying mysterious atmosphere that inspired the author. Rome in the 1600s, a land of Inquisition trials and political intrigue, is the birthplace of the Illuminati, one of the most influential secret societies of all time. The leaders of the society - Galileo Galilei and Gian Lorenzo Bernini - placed clues around the City to create a path to light. Important clues were cryptic texts by the poet John Milton and the Four Altars of Science, which represent the four elements of earth, air, fire and water. Once solved, these clues revealed ways to enter secret locations. Sights we’ll visit include the Church of Santa Maria del Popolo, St. Peter’s Square, Santa Maria Victorious Church, Piazza Navona, and the towering, columned Castel Sant’Angelo. We’ll also see the Pope’s secret elevated passage, Il Passetto, from the outside. If that sounds like a lot of walking, don’t worry, we’ll provide transportation by air-conditioned Bus!
