Rome is the heart of Baroque art and architecture. Through this carefully crafted Bernini and Borromini tour, you will experience it in its full glory. You will start with the Church of Santa Maria della Vittoria. Hidden behind its elegant façade, this church features a mind-boggling explosion of painting, sculpture, stuccoes, marbles, and Baroque architecture. You will marvel at Bernini’s Ecstasy of Saint Theresa, as your guide explains the history behind the most scandalous artwork of the Baroque.
Ascend the gentle slopes of the Quirinal hill. Your tour then takes you up one of the Seven Hills of Rome to compare Borromini’s Church of San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane with Bernini’s Church of Sant’Andrea al Quirinale.
Behold their monumental legacy on Piazza Navona. Piazza Navona is quite simply an unmissable stop on any tour to Rome. Here, you will admire Bernini’s Fountain of the Four Rivers and learn about the legends and stories which surround its construction. Opposite the fountain, you will see Borromini’s majestic Church of Sant’Agnese and discover how this building represented the culmination of his career. These two competing buildings stand as an eternal testament to the lives, rivalry, and genius of the two great masters of the Baroque.
