**AirBnB Award Winning Tour** Every city has a dark side, and Rome is no different. We have ghosts, gruesome executions, and murders, and they can be fascinating. Join us for an after-dark stroll to explore these tales of Rome. For every grand palazzo and opulent church, there can be a darker tale hidden behind the stones. Come along on a night-time stroll with our award winning storytelling guides to discover a history of Rome that could leave you chilled or amused, but definitely fascinated. Hear tales that include the execution of one of history’s best scientific minds, try and spot the ghost of a Count who cavorted with Marie Antoinette, and learn the incredible story of a woman known as ‘the female Pope’, who is said to haunt the bridge you’ll stand on. From the house of a notorious poisoner to a church with a rather macabre story to go with its grim decoration, explore the backstreets of the city, where you will discover the stories of a completely different side of Rome.
