Rome is synonymous to history. In the hustle bustle of the modern Rome, that ancient feel of the city is somewhat lost. This is exactly why many people will advice you to opt for a walking tour of the city. Well, with the amazing packages that are available, they are far from being wrong that a walking tour of Rome is the best way to experience the ancient city of Rome. The city has a lot of hidden treasures that are not possible to be experienced in the conventional bus tours. The best possible Rome tour on foot is the tour that is held at night. There is a difference in mood and feel when the sun begins to set and romance eventually fills the air.

 There are amazing guides who specialise in these tours and breathe the ancient history of Rome. It is these people who make the modern Rome a place to go back in time and experience the true colours of the city. Churches and basilicas are the heart of the city but there are also a lot of Jewish ghettos that score high in terms of architectural brilliance. These are places that are available only on a walk around the city. One thing to be remembered while deciding to go on a tour across Rome is the fact that ALL places cannot be covered. Generally, these walking tours are three hour long and cover the most important places such as the Colosseum, the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Roman Forum, Capitoline Hill and Trevi Fountain.

 There are also other interesting walking tour packages that curtail to the interest of very selective tourists. There is a walking tour that is called the wine tasting tour. This is one tour that has found a lot of prominence today. Rome is a place known for its exquisite vineyards and delicious wines. This tour promises a walk across all these places and the fragrance of the tastiest wines in Rome. The obvious tour is that of the compact Christian capital of the world- the Vatican City. There is a limitation is terms of dress code though with a compulsion to keep the shoulders and knees covered. Men are to wear full length trousers on these tours. The most exciting tour is the one that takes you below the present day roads into an ancient underground city.

 All the walking tours are not available throughout the year and that is why it is best to book in advance because when in season, people flock on these tours to enjoy the serenity of the historical city of Rome.
