You step from your hotel into an air-conditioned vehicle and the city opens like a map under glass—cobblestone streets, tramlines, and the Tiber cutting a slow line through the city. In three compact hours a private driver threads you past the Colosseum’s stone bulk, pauses at the Trevi Fountain’s marble swirl, rolls up the Spanish Steps and lets you taste the open-air geometry of Piazza Navona before a drive toward the Vatican.
