If you wish to visit Rome, but you are tired of traditional guided tours to the historic monuments and buildings of the city, and you prefer to discover the sights of the eternal city in a different way, perhaps combining the explanations of the guide with a special treasure hunt and with your passion for literature and cinema, the guided tours inspired from Angels and Demons are the right choice for you.
Angels and Demons, a bestseller written by Dan Brown, the author of the famous The Da Vinci Code, and a successful film directed by Ron Howard featuring Tom Hanks, has inspired various alternative tours in Rome, which lead tourists through the locations described by the book and the film. This is not a brand new idea: the so-called cinema tourism, indeed, is an ever-growing phenomenon that attracts a number of fans in the places that served as sets for films or TV series, and which are then seen as the destination of a sort of secular pilgrimage.
This ever-growing phenomenon affects many cities, but try to imagine what happens if you combine a city like Rome, one of the most longed-for travel destinations for travelers from all over the world, and one of the most outstanding editorial and cinematographic successes of the last few years, which has caught the attention of both public and media, and which has also aroused bitter controversy, increasing the popularity of the work and the curiosity of the public about it: it is not difficult to understand that a tour inspired from Angels and Demons cannot but be welcomed in a warm way.
For this reason many associations, but also Rome hotels, have organized visits inspired from the book, and there is also an official tour that was offered even before the movie release, and that the director and screenwriter of the film have used to realize their work. The tour is intended as an interactive experience, which lets tourists visit some of the most beautiful sights in Rome and identify with the characters of the book and of the film: participants, indeed, have the opportunity to personally retrace the steps of their favorite actors, and the tour can be considered as a sort of treasure hunt that leads visitors to interpret a series of clues and to solve the enigmas introduced by Dan Brown in his book, just as happens to Robert Langdon, the main character of Angels and Demons.
Tourists, above all the foreign ones, who are spending their holiday in Rome are very enthusiastic about this tour, which lets them look at one of the best-known cities of the world from a new perspective. Tourists are led in the city’s historic centre to discover some masterpieces of art and architecture, such as St Maria del Popolo Church, St Peter’s Square, St Maria della Vittoria Church, the Pantheon, Navona Square, Castel Sant’Angelo and “Il Passetto”, which are all described in Angels and Demons, and can then go back to their holiday apartments, happy as they lived a magic experience between reality and imagination.
