The 10 Best Things to do in Trevi, Lazio

October 4, 2021 Margarita Chappel

Rome wasn't built in a day--and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites. Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, contemplate the Colosseum and the Pantheon, and sample a perfect espresso or gelato before spending an afternoon shopping at the Campo de’Fiori or Via Veneto. Enjoy some of the most memorable meals of your life here, too, from fresh pasta to succulent fried artichokes or a tender oxtail stew.

Palazzo Colonna - Galleria Colonna

Right in the center of Rome, close to Piazza Venezia, Palazzo Colonna is one of the greatest Barocco Palaces of the eternal city. The impressive Colonna's Collections of paintings, sculptures and furniture from the 14th to the 18th century are unique and part of the roman history. The Colonna Gallery is open to the public every Saturday morning from 9 am to 1,15 pm (last entrance) from Via della Pilotta 17. All other days, including Saturday afternoon, private visits by appointment. Free guided tour (every Saturday): - in Italian at 10.00 And 11.00 Am - in French at 10.30 Am - in English at 12 am Private visits on request are available every day of the year. We also recommend a visit to the stunning Princess Isabelle Apartment with its incredible Van Wittel and Flemish Collections and the Pinturicchio frescoes.

Recommended for the ones who have visited all the major attractions in Rome and are looking for THE insider tip. Not a cheap attraction but every euro worth (EUR 25). For a full-mind-blowing experience, do it with the guided tour IT-EN named “Isotta”. This is a privately owned palace of the Roman aristocracy that turned into a gallery opened for visiting on Saturdays only (or private tours). Impressive main gallery with frescos, paintings, sculptures, mirrors and many other beautiful decorating objects. Resembles Versailles without the mass-tourists. The Palace looks good on pictures but live it is definitively much better. The apartments contain many other impressive rooms, with centuries of history and other curious remarks, just like in a fairy tale or children book. The palace itself was beautiful, but the guide turned the experience mind-blowing. Our guide, Isotta, an English-fluent local, impeccably guided us through the marvelous palace and the private apartment rooms, cherry-picking the most important and astonishing art pieces. She also informed dates, styles, artists and commissioners that let me jaw-dropped, specially baring in mind that the whole tour took more than 1h30min. Five star gallery with a five star guide! Highly recommended.

San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane

Reviewed By Noraatc - Sudbury, United States

I tried to see the interior of the Chiesa San Carlo al Quattro Fontane at least three times during my twelve days in Rome. Finally, the allusive church was opened before noon and I had a chance to admire simplicity and perfect geometric perspective of the Borromini’s white oval interior. No elaborate decorations, no gilded statues... just the flawless harmony and immaculate precision of Borromini’s design. How elegant it is... The facade neighboring the famous Quattro Fontane is absolutely stunning, but it needs to be cleaned...

Le Domus Romane di Palazzo Valentini

Reviewed By B3075TRpauls - Hauts-de-France, France

The price of this attraction is included in the Roma pass (two free attractions for the 72 hour pass). It is a bit hidden away, not far from the colosseum and not as famous as the other attractions in the area. However, it is definitely worth the visit, when we first got to the reception desk we didn’t expect much, the visit takes the form of a virtual guided history of a roman villa in the foundations of the existing villa ( we are French / English speakers ) we had the guide in French. The animations bring to life how the villa was in roman times. People who are afraid of the dark be aware that some parts of the visit start with little light available but there is always a member of the museum on hand to help. I would recommend going to this museum as it gives an fascinating insight into roman villa life.

Scuderie del Quirinale

The building covers approximately 3000 square meters, over several floors. Wide-open spaces on the second and third floors house the exhibitions. A cafeteria is situated on the mezzanine level and a bookstore, a giftshop and special areas dedicated to exhibition-related initiatives are all on the ground floor.

Reviewed By KXLingle - Sioux Falls, United States

Every time I've gone to Rome I've gone to the Scuderie. I have never been disappointed. In fact, I've been disappointed on multiple occasions when I have not been able to get to Rome to experience one of their excellent exhibitions. In any event, the current Pompeii and Santorini is extremely well done and successfully blends modern art with artifacts/casts from the two ancient cities. It is mind boggling to look at the minute artifacts from Pompeii, including gold chain and pigments that were intended for fresco painting. The frescoes that are presented are of the utmost quality and are displayed in a fashion that allows you to consider them intimately. There are a couple plaster casts from the voids left by human remains in the ash; these are always heartbreaking to see, but are presented respectfully. On each occasion that I have visited the Scuderie (Vermeer, Corregio/Parmigianino, and this current exhibition), I have never felt hurried or jostled as one sometimes can in the Vatican Museums or even areas of the Capitoline. Moreover, the staff are extremely friendly.
