Institutional and Secret Rome Tour

About this activity

Discover the hidden face of Rome through the places where Italian history is decided. A unique and exclusive itinerary through the palaces of power, monumental squares, and institutional curiosities that escape most visitors.

From the majesty of Piazza del Quirinale to the solemnity of Palazzo Chigi and Palazzo Madama, to seeing the Chamber of Deputies in Montecitorio and the timeless beauty of Piazza Navona, I will accompany you on a cultural walk rich in details, anecdotes, and historical background.

Who will accompany you:

I am a certified tour guide, with a degree in History, with experience gained at the Quirinal Palace and a background in Physiotherapy. My training allows me to combine the rigor of historical storytelling with a pleasant walking pace, attentive to the well-being and needs of every participant.

A fascinating, accessible, and rigorous journey to experience Rome with the eyes of someone who studies and knows it up close.
