What you'll do

Automatic translation ·

A fascinating walking journey into the beating heart of 17th-century Rome, following the trail of the most tormented painter in the history of art. This exclusive itinerary combines a biographical account of Caravaggio's daily life—taverns, brawls, passions, and crimes—with a firsthand look at his greatest masterpieces. Strolling among the vehicles of Campo Marzio, you'll discover where he lived and the three famous churches that house his revolutionary paintings. We'll admire the Madonna dei Pellegrini in the Basilica of Sant'Agostino, the Contarelli Chapel in San Luigi di Francesi, and the Cerasi Chapel in the Basilica of Santa Maria del Popolo. An intimate experience for a small group, allowing you to experience Baroque Rome through the eyes of a genius on the run.
