WHAT WE’LL DO
- Bring your torches and keep your eyes open, this is not an ordinary ghost tour of Rome! We will walk together in the evening through the creepiest and darkest secrets of Rome. Because this is the Eternal city.. as eternal as the ghosts and dark legends that live in it!
- Don’t wander off, let’s stay close while we go through piazza Farnese, via Giulia and Ponte Sisto, homes to the most famous ghosts of the city! In fact, you’ll be surprised to find out that many of these ghosts populate some of the most lively areas of the city.. Where you least expect to find them!
- Don’t worry if you’ll feel a swish next to your ear while on Ponte Sisto, that’s just Donna Olimpia frantically running away from the city with her chariot full of gold
- And if you get a weird feeling as if someone is watching you while walking through via Giulia.. That’s normal, because you’re surrounded by the ghosts which live around Palazzo Farnese and the Church of Santa Maria dell’Orazione e Morte
- We’ll walk through Campo de Fiori and Piazza Navona, while the crowds beside us continue their lives unaware of all the ghosts we’ll get to meet on the way: the girl with the most beautiful hands of Rome, the innkeeper that talked too much and more..
- Then we’ll end up on Sant’Angelo bridge, where the fierce capital executions took place for centuries in front of the population
- The ghosts of Rome can be scary.. If you don’t know them! But after you’ll get to meet them during this experience, you’ll be able to confidently walk the streets of Rome without fear!
