RomePass-by Only
Rome is a city of layers — ancient, spiritual, mysterious. With this immersive self-guided experience, you’ll uncover its most iconic landmarks and its most hidden secrets, all at your own pace. Far from standard routes, this tour lets you discover underground chapels, pagan altars hidden beneath churches, faded frescoes in forgotten courtyards, and food stories that live on in Trastevere’s winding alleys. Stroll along silent ruins and stumble upon fountains that whisper legends from the past. Hear tales of emperors, saints, martyrs, and ghosts, and feel how centuries overlap beneath your feet. With your smartphone as your companion, you choose where to go, how long to stay, and what to uncover — whether it's following the shadow of the Colosseum, tracing symbols etched in stone, or escaping the crowds to find quiet piazzas known only to locals. This is not just a tour. It’s a journey into the hidden heart of Rome, where every corner holds a story waiting to be heard.
