More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A warm evening hums through Rome as the city lights flick on and the driver steers you away from the crowded squares. Your private night drive threads quiet lanes and broad avenues, pausing where cars can only watch: a keyed peephole that frames St. Peter's dome like a cinematic lens, a hilltop terrace where the rooftops fold away into the dark, and the wide steps of the Fontana dell'Acqua Paola catching light like a marble stage.
