The experience

We’d barely closed the hotel door before our driver, Paolo, waved from his little electric tuktuk: big grin, sunglasses perched on his head. He asked if we wanted music or just “the real Roman soundtrack” (which turned out to be scooters zipping past and someone shouting “Attenzione!” from a bakery window). I liked that. The first stop was the Spanish Steps: crowds everywhere but somehow still peaceful up close, maybe because Paolo pointed out how locals sit on the lower steps for shade in summer. I tried to say ‘Trinità dei Monti’ right. He laughed and said my accent was better than his English. Not sure about that.

The city felt different from inside the tuktuk, closer somehow. We zipped through Via Veneto (Paolo called it “La Dolce Vita street”, he did a little movie star wave), then stopped at Piazza del Popolo where a kid was chasing pigeons in circles. The air smelled like espresso and car exhaust, which sounds odd but honestly felt right for Rome. At Rione Monti we slowed down so I could peek into shop windows full of handmade leather bags and old postcards. Somewhere between Quirinal Palace and the Colosseum, Paolo started telling stories about gladiators. He swore one of his ancestors fought there but winked as he said it.

I didn’t expect the best part to be Janiculum Hill. Up there, Paolo popped open a bottle of Prosecco (included in the tour, nice touch) and handed us glasses while we looked out over all those rooftops. The wind was warm and everything seemed golden for a minute: the kind of light you only get late afternoon in Italy. I still think about that view sometimes when I hear traffic back home. On the way back we paused at the Orange Garden. You could smell citrus in the air if you stood still long enough. We didn’t go inside St Peter’s Basilica but saw its dome glowing in the distance. A good ending without being too neat.
