Description

Good to Know

This group tour begins in the morning with pick-up by our professional English-speaking driver of a minivan. The first stop is the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, for a guided visit including the Upper Areas, Dome, and Archaeological site. Guests will then enjoy an exclusive concert inside the Basilica, featuring a pianist and pop-lyric singer performing Italian classics and Andrea Bocelli’s most iconic songs. For lunch, savor a “Food & Bocelli Wine Experience”, with Roman specialties paired with fine wines from the Bocelli family estate. In the afternoon, enjoy a panoramic 2-hour city tour, then return to your hotel to prepare for the celebrations. In the evening, your driver will take you to the Terrazza dei Papi restaurant for a glamorous New Year’s Eve dinner, with live music, gourmet dishes, and sparkling wine — the perfect way to welcome the New Year in true Italian style. After the celebration, you’ll be comfortably escorted back to your accommodation.
