About this tour
Vintage 1979 Fiat van tour through Rome's iconic landmarks, combining sightseeing with Roman flavours. Over 2.5 hours, you'll travel with a small group in Nando (yes, the van has a name) stopping at major monuments whilst a guide shares local lore and family histories. A curated aperitif of pecorino, white pizza with mortadella, and Castelli wine punctuates the route. End at dusk having discovered Rome through a distinctly retro lens.

- Major Rome monuments with insider anecdotes and historical context

What to expect
You'll board a properly aged Fiat van—expect narrow seats, vintage charm, and proximity to fellow travellers. The 2.5-hour loop covers Rome's essential sights: the driver pauses at each stop long enough for photos and storytelling about the aristocratic families and quirks that shaped the city. Midway through, you'll gather on board or nearby for the aperitif spread. It's unhurried and conversational rather than rushed.
Good to know
Not suitable for pregnant travellers or those with mobility concerns; van capacity is limited. Service animals welcome. Narrow aisles and vintage suspension mean this isn't a smooth ride. Public transport alternatives exist nearby if needed.
