No music, no voice over is so Wonderful! Its as if one is just on a walk by themselves hearing all the local noise. Thank You for being more 'advanced' than most travel videos
I can't praise this virtual walking tour too highly. My wife and I are old now and unable to revisit the country and its cities we love - especially Rome. To go around many of the areas we had ourselves walked was marvellous, it really was. Thank you so much. (5/5 stars)
We watched all 6 hours of this walking tour over several days. We've been all over the city and LOVED revisiting it. We long to return to Roma. So this will do for now.
Picture quality + choice of places to be shown + walk that almost allowed me to feel like I was there = SUBLIME VIDEO! Once again, thanks for your wonderful walks
I have to say, I really enjoy your videos. What I really appreciate is that you are so quiet and let us absorb the sounds of the street and hussle and bussle of the people. I am going to subscribe to your channel. I can't stand the videos where they just talk and talk and talk. Great job!!
Hey, thanks for the feedback. Yeah, as much as possible I want people to watch my videos and feel like it is their tour, not mine. Thanks for subscribing! It really helps me out.
Agreed. The worst videos are the ones where the young girls have their face glued to the camera trying to explain everything to you and saying "I hope you can see this amazing place, blah, blah, blah...." and then the annoying dumb music. I like to hear what the place sounds like and I don't even mind music in the background and even well-informed narration. So tired of the "look at me" I'm in Rome, Venice, Honk Kong, Singapore, Amsterdam videos that are in all essence, useless, unimaginative, uninformative, and mostly irritating. Thank God for people who post videos like this. BTW, nobody wants to see somebody's plane trip from and to a destination (even in timelapse). We get the point! LMAO.
I have been four times to Rome, and spent six weeks there in year 2000, but I have never seen it so well as on the shoulders of this marvelous videographer! A Thousand Thanks!
I lived and worked in Rome for a short while and fell in love with every part of the city. I’ve never been anywhere else that makes my heart swell like Roma. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing video and so quietly walking the streets. You truly captured what it is like to walk the streets of the city and soak up every sight and sound. ❤️
Norman Monico. You forget that Rome was the first metropolis in the world. Paris and London were little villages and New York didn't even exist. The art treasures and monuments of the "Urbs" are unparalleled. What I am saying is that they are two different leagues.
@@normanmonico208 for visiting Paris you need three days, for Rome a life isn't enough, each corner, each street is a monument, 37 seconds for visit Notre Dame, 20 for Tour Eiffel, and 20 meters of champes elisees are enough, study history and art before speak...Michelangelo, Raffaello, the Reinassence, the ancient Rome...Vatican...
I cant thank you enough for this walk... I have not been home for over 6 years - the longest I have been away from Rome. This video is what I needed today. Grazie mille!
When we went to Rome I remember that Via del Corso wasn´t pedestrian street. Once more this Walking Tour is fantastic, I can remember perfectly well when we spent 3 days at Hotel Santa Chiara behind the Pantheon. I just love it. Thank you !!!
Hi Vivian, you're very welcome. Thanks for watching! I've been there when the Via del Corso was open to traffic and again when it was closed. I'm not sure of the timing of it all.
Me, my wife & our 14 year old daughter will be visiting Rome for 5 days in May 2019. Watching this video has really helped us to plan our trip as we want to walk to all the sights so we don’t miss anything.
That's great to hear. I'm glad it's helped. Every street has something on it and you can easily not turn down one street and miss something amazing. The only main site I think my walk is missing.........I know there are many...but at least one that I wish I would have included...are the Baths of Caracalla....and from there you are pretty close to the Appian Way. I'm going to make a separate video of the Appian Way though. Thanks for watching! If you have any questions about your trip feel free to ask...I'm not an expert but I've been to Rome quite a few times now.
We spent a week wandering around Rome every day for about 8 hours and you captured everything we saw and more. On the big screen it's almost like being back there(without the pickpockets).
These are great and informative videos. The combination of no narration or music to interfere with the virtual experience of walking through your destinations with the nice captioning to explain what is being seen is perfect. I appreciate your work! The downside of these videos is it really makes me hungry to go to (or back to) your destinations and give them a fuller exploration!
@@ProWalks I left a piece of my heart in Villa Torlonia and its surroundings... I would love to see a video of yours placed there.. :') I'm honored by the way
You made my adopted city look great. I have lived here for almost 11 years and with all of her problems, Roma is one of my favorite places on earth. I am Roman now, being the wife of a Roman and mother of 4 little Romans (hand gestures and all). I was born in the Bronx to a Cuban and a Puerto Rican and my heart is part Roman too.
This has to be the best walking tour that we've ever seen. It's just like walking the streets as well as as in structures ourselves. Thanks for periodically panning the camera to see the other streets. Thanks also for the very informative historical comments. Keep up the excellent work! Thanks.
Hey, thanks. I'll have a similar one up soon of Venice. I just got back from Egypt today and I'll be posting up a walk around Cairo. Thanks for watching! I appreciate the support.
Hey Shawn, I have a question for you. DId you watch the entire walk and if so, about how much time did you watch per view? I am working on a Venice video that is about the same length and I can't decide if I should upload in 30 minute segments, 1 hour segments or just upload the entire 5 hour walk. Did you watch this on your smart TV? Did you find it easy to skip ahead, or back, if you needed? Thanks in advance!
We are in total lock down with curfew, and l am watching my beloved Roma, where l lived in an apartment on Via del Corso once, could pass my door. I was moved to tears. Thank you❣️❤️ I have been so many times in my beloved Roma it is the most interesting beautiful place to me. ⛲️🏛
Hey, you're welcome. I'm heading to Rome this weekend to film the Feast of the Epiphany celebration. I've never been to it but it looks like a big deal.
Since we are now considering a few days in Rome when we do eventually get to Italy, I'm rediscovering your Rome walks! Looks fantastic. Can't wait to watch every minute to build my own itinerary.
Hey Ken, I have a new Rome walk but I just haven't got around to posting it up yet..and now it is several months old. It is over 6 hours though...which keeps me from wanting to finish it. :)
@@ProWalks can't wait to see it! Come on, you can do it!! We started to think about Rome, but we would have to drop Civita to do it. So we are torn, but oh the Colosseum! And the Roman forum!
I am addicted to your videos...they are by far the best online. We get to enjoy the sights and sounds, the inserted info is awesome, and your movements don't make me dizzy. LOL Well done!! :) Will be in Italy for 3 weeks May 2020. Can't wait!
Hi, I've been to Italy and saw the eternal city and the rest of the country in its entirety. Your videos transport me back in time so Thank you and pls keep posting🙏🏼
I really love how there's no music playing or talking and don't have to hear anything annoying silly narrations just a gorgeous walk through its wonderful thank you
I live in northern Italy and I love Rome a lot. The tour is beautiful, even the audio part, very impressive when passing from the street noise to the silence of the interior of the churches. You were lucky not to find too much traffic and garbage in the streets, I saw only a vagabond asking for alms, no papers on the ground, or holes on the asphalt. Last time i was in Rome a few years ago, i saw a homeless woman who was washing herself completely naked at a fountain near Piazza della Repubblica ... Unfortunately you have lost a lot of interesting things that you have passed by, for those who wish to know more, for example: 33:37 on the right, the Chigi Palace, seat of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers 35:59 behind the obelisk the Palazzo di Montecitorio, the seat of the Chamber of Deputies, one of the two parts of the Italian Parliament 1:24:25 if you put yourself near one of the fountains (which are in the fires of the ellipse) you could see all the columns lined up 2:08:00 on the left you can see the memorial plaque of one of the most tragic events of contemporary Italian history: here was found the corpse of Aldo Moro, the kidnapped prime minister, imprisoned and killed by the Red Brigades in 1978, symbolic event of the darker period of terrorism in Italy 2:59:56 on the right, under the staircase, you can see the rare remains of a Roman popular house ("Insula") of the second century. 3:03:45 on the left, Palazzo Venezia, with the balcony from which Mussolini were used to speak to the crowd 4:37:40 detail to the left of the beautiful square with the wonderful fountain of the Naiads (no water for maintenance) 4:53:59 the beautiful intersection of the Four Fountains, which can be seen at the four corners 5:31:29 in front of Bulgari, you can see on the right the historic Caffè Greco, founded in 1760, a café-museum with over 300 works on display, a meeting point for all the past artists in Rome 5:47:35 The Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, one of the most important and ancient in Italy In the video is missing a very beautiful piece of Rome: the Gianicolo hill and Trastevere and the wonderful Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano, with its breathtaking ceiling !!! Here is a site full of strange curiosities about Rome: www.romasegreta.it
I was in Rome a year ago this week. I stayed in an apartment in the Pizza di Pietra and had the view of Hadrian's Temple (37:39) at the window of my apartment. Our favorite restaurant was between the apartment and the Pantheon, Er Faciolaro (39:46). This video is fantastic and makes me want to go back to Roma so very much!
I like Rome. The streets are excellent for pedestrians. Clean and large. I like the Saint Andrew Garden. It reminds me of heaven. Also Fountain de Trevi and many others that I saw in your excellent video. Thank you so much for your great work!
Yes, rome is definitely a perfect city for walking. Every street is unique and interesting. It has been fun. There is still more in Rome i want to go walk. Thanks for watching!
Hi Sonia, thanks for watching! I have a question for you. Would you find it helpful if I were to introduce the walk at the beginning of the video? Basically, do you want to me at the beginning saying "Welcome to Prowalks. Today we're going to be taking a walking tour of _________. During this walk you will see this, this and this. Click on a timestamp in the video description to skip ahead to specific part of the walk." Would this improve the video....or do you just want to jump right into the walk? Thanks!!
Thanks for asking! In my opinion it would be a nice addition, specially if you provide the opt-out option. Really a good job, almost 6 hours walking in Rome!! ♥♥
here is absolutely the city in the center .. the slow approach allows you to get a good overview of the city .. the map material and the text complement meaningful.
Had a holiday in Rome a long time ago (1992), lovely to see it again, uninterrupted by commentary or superfluous background music, perfect walking pace...feel I'm visiting it again and this time seeing all the sights etc in peace and in comfort of my own living room! Thanks so much, excellent vid.
Hey, thanks. It has taken a bit of practice to realized what will look good on a TV screen. I'm still working on it but I think the videos are getting better as I go. Thanks for watching!
i was in Rome cca 15 years ago, but i was kinda lost all the way....you made it so simple and beautiful that i'm almost ashamed to admit my total confusion at the TREVI FOUNTAIN, that i found out lately that i was there already....silly me, but one thing i remember clearly. it was the PANTHEON, which fitted me the most...i prayed in front of COLLOSEUM, while others did it at St PETERS BASILICA, which is colossal in its own right, BUT NOTHING CAN COMPARE TO YOUR PROWALKS WHICH ARE STUNNING AND MARVELLOUSLY EXPLAINED WITH CAPTIONS AND TITLES (from Sorrento to Sasseto Forest), you are my only tourist guide, so thank you, man!!!!!!!
Wow! That is quite the complement! Yeah i imagine traveling 15 years ago was a much different experience. It is hard to get lost now and pretty easy to plan the trip especially with google earth. Well i have a lot more walks planned..... Hopefully florence, Venice, matera and cairo will all happen in the early fall. I am back in the states for a few weeks now visiting family. I just did a 9 mile walk at mt. St. Helens that I'll get posted up at some point. Thanks for watching!
Our first night in Rome it was raining lightly and we were a little jet-lagged but we went out for a walk anyway to get some air. It was well after dark and the rain had mostly stopped when we walked through the Porto del Popolo and into the piazza. The lights in the piazza reflects in each of the rain-wet cobblestones and it was like walking across a field of stars. I'll remember that for the rest of my days.
That's great. Would you be interested in longer tripod takes at a single location? Say, 5-10 minutes of just the hustle and bustle at the Trevi fountain? If it is something you leave on for background ambient noise, do you have any requests or suggestions?
@@ProWalks Hi there! Yes that'd be great! There are a few places that you visited in which I'd love to see a tripod take, like the Mercato Centrale in Florence, and the fish Market in Venice (or any other market in fact). Also it'd be great if you do a bus/train stations, especially the smaller outdoor platforms in Cinque Terre region overlooking the sea. Thank you again for the amazing tours!
GREAT way to relive our 2 weeks in Roma June 2019 while hiding at home from Wuhan virus and riding stationary bike. Great memories are made of this. Thank you very much.
Congratulations for that awesome video. Amazing picture quality and text. Rome is really really a place where all of us should go and feel. Once feel the history beneath its legs.
@@ProWalks Oh, thank you very much for your kindness. I was looking for real videos about my city because I'm out in this period and I miss Rome so much! Well, you can only find standard videos on RUclips, with annoying music or too much talking, all the same. And finally I find you, thanks God, and it's like being there. Thank you. If I notice something, I will tell you! :)
I had the worst customer experience in that store called MARCO MARCO at 6:37. The staff were the rudest sales people I have ever encountered on this planet. Put a bad taste in my mouth that trip but I still love Rome.
Thank you for this wonderful video. I live in Rome, but right now I'm stuck at home because of the coronavirus, I can't wait to get out and go back to my long walks in those streets and squares, untill that moment I will enjoy videos like this one!
Amazing walk through Rome! Very well thought and execution. Italy is perfect for walking... and here is the proof! Great job... and keep on walking! There's plenty more for you to explore.
Hey, you're welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the walks. I need to speed up my work flow. I have many more walks to get posted up. Thanks for watching!
Ohhh. This is an amazing video. Quality is really high. You explained every detail. I will go to Rome at this weekend. Before going to Rome , this video helped me to understand streets of Rome. Thank you so much.
That was wonderful thank you SO much I am 65 I was at the coliseum just before I was 20 over 46 years ago..wow I was able to stand up in it on a floor above arena n you saw thr lower floor with all the passageways n lock ups for gladiators n animals etc Was sad n amazing
Thanks so much for this wonderful video! It may sound ridiculous since I live in Rome, but you made me wanted to have a walk in the center, it is so long I don’t find time to go sightseeing in my own city!! Next Sunday I’ll be a tourist, promised!
OMG! This is the most magnificent video on Rome bar none! It is so spectacular that it almost brought tears to my eyes! Namely because I have been there many times and your video reminded me of all the wonderful times I spent there. Also, your video is so awesome because you DO NOT have the usual stupid music, and therefore you allow us, the viewers, to hear the sounds of Roma, and thus, truly feel like we're there! That was the best part of this gorgeous video, which you edited beautifully. I saw once and will view it again. Are you going to do one on Florence and Venice, and maybe Siena? Thank you so much for bringing me such joy by viewing your gorgeous video. You should be very pride of yourself! Thank you!
Hi, that's great to hear! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I need to go back and film some places I missed. I will definitely be going to Florence and Venice. I haven't been to Siena yet though so that might have to wait. I went to Florence once already to film but it was so crowded and several sections of town were blocked off for a bicycle race, so I just got back on the train and went home. :) I might try to go up at Christmas time and walk around when the lights are up. Thank you for supporting my channel!
You are very welcome! You deserve much and high praise for the magnificent work you do. I so love the fact that you have NO MUSIC, which is so ridiculous in so many travel videos I've seen, and that we can hear the places you are filming. I especially love all the work you put into all the HISTORICAL INFORMATION which is awesome and is accurate since I myself did research before arriving at the places you filmed. You're on point! Fantastic job you're doing! So, so relaxing to see your wonderful videos, especially since I've been there to some of them. Hope you do one soon of Florence, Venice, and I strongly suggest one on Siena since it's a gorgeous place to do a walking tour. As well as Verona. You will love walking at these three towns. Thanks again for your work.
Amazing Footage, The Best I have ever seen of ROME . . . from the comfort of my Living room in Portland, Oregon . . . Excellent video . . . keep up the great WORK!
Supposed to fly to Rome today but cancelled due to the covid crisis. Re-booked for April 2021. Can't wait. Love watching this video. Thanks for posting :)
This is EPIC!!! Love this walking tour. Because of this, I believe I have the confidence to plan a solo trip from the U.S. and know where to stay and how to get around. Thank You so much. And this was even before I hit the 3 hour mark!!!!
Hi, that's great to hear! I'm sure others have done this but maybe I'll go back and make a short video about how all the different modes of public transportation work. Rome is pretty easy. Good luck planning and feel free to ask me any questions.
Thanks! That's great to hear. There are a few spelling errors I didn't catch...maybe more than a few. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! Did you notice the Time stamps in the video description so you could skip ahead? I am trying to decide if I need to provide an introduction...with me speaking about what viewers are going to see in the video and how to skip ahead. It can be hard to navigate a 5 hour video. I have a Pompeii video almost finished that is over 4 hours.
Thanks for your reply! I didn't notice any spelling errors at all and I'm amazed you took the time and effort to put captions for all the places you went to along with descriptions and some history. I did not notice you put time stamps in the video description, thanks for letting me know as well although I have been watching continuously without the need to fast forward as I'm really enjoying it :) I also love that you captured all the natural sounds so it's like as if we're walking there together with you. This will be very useful for people who are home bound and are unable to travel - I will recommend your video to my friends. Lastly, I will be in Rome in November this year so this video is very helpful for me. Once again, thanks for doing such a great job and I'll be sure to check out your other videos.
Awesome video! Specially from someone who had just been there a few weeks ago - it brought back good memories from different places in Rome. I so love the place. Thanks.
If you haven’t already, please film Southern Tyrol in Italy. There are beautiful little towns there. As I mentioned previously, you’re videos are fantastic!
Wonderful! Is my dream to visit Rome, but has not materialised so far. Now with this video, I feel like I'm actually there! Thanks a ton for this treat!
I have subscribed to the chanal because of the surrounded sound that is so clear < when you you pass beside talking people I can still hear them in the back as if they were with me at my room , best walk tours ever
Yeah, I hope others discover how much better it is to watch with headphones on. It makes it much more fun to watch. I'm glad you enjoyed the walk. I appreciate you taking time to comment.
I looked at it every minute and I really enjoyed it. So much information. Magnificent. I have been able to extract a lot of information and take my steps back from when I have been there. Now at least I know what that is and where it is.
Hey, thanks. Yeah this one took a while. When I started this channel I wasn't planning on adding the captions or titles. They take a while to edit now. I hope things on your channel are going well!
Lovely tour, thank you. I also have been to Italy several times many years ago. Also to Rome - even once flew in the day after Christmas. Vatican City was breath-taking during the holidays.
I learned so much from your video with the historical and other information you supplied . I just really enjoy learning the history of a place. Thank you so much for making your videos. You have opened up the world for me as I cannot travel myself having food sensitives so would not be able to eat the local food.
Hi Donna, I just went to Rome last weekend and filmed a bike ride and an evening walk. They both turned out well and I'm excited to get them posted up. I have two other walks to post first. I'm heading back to Rome this weekend with the family. Is there anything specific you'd like to see? Like I said in the other comment, I would like to post up more members only content. I'll try to film little things while I'm there. Thanks again for your support!
@@ProWalks Thank you for offering to show specific things and what a great service you provide for us your viewers. Whatever you can provide would be great as I have never been it is hard to specify anything and I would not like to limit anything you do and look forward very much to your new postings. I hope you have a great trip with your family.

You have no idea what you´re talking about. There is no city like Paris. New York and London come after.
To be fair, Paris has a really big problem, french people.

I am Roman now, being the wife of a Roman and mother of 4 little Romans (hand gestures and all). I was born in the Bronx to a Cuban and a Puerto Rican and my heart is part Roman too.
Wana visit
sounds like a great story. All the best to your family.
These are great and informative videos.😊
This was the most amazing tour of Rome I've ever seen. The captions were so interesting and informative. Thank you so much for doing this and sharing.
Hey, no problem. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I'll second that Scott. Keep it up pro walks.
This has to be the best walking tour that we've ever seen. It's just like walking the streets as well as as in structures ourselves. Thanks for periodically panning the camera to see the other streets. Thanks also for the very informative historical comments. Keep up the excellent work! Thanks.
¡IMPRESIONANTE, MI AMIGO! MÁS DE CINCO HORAS DE PASEO POR ROMA, COMO SI UNO ESTUVIERA ALLÍ; ES UN LUJO, ¡¡¡MUCHAS, MUCHAS, MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!

Hey, you're welcome. I'm heading to Rome this weekend to film the Feast of the Epiphany celebration. I've never been to it but it looks like a big deal.
@@ProWalks Epiphany celebration is called "Befana" in Italy. In fact the Befana is a witch...but a kind witch, who gives sweets to children!
this is like therapy - so calming and soothing ...that isn't even mentioning all the sites. im hooked!
Since we are now considering a few days in Rome when we do eventually get to Italy, I'm rediscovering your Rome walks! Looks fantastic. Can't wait to watch every minute to build my own itinerary.
Hey Ken, I have a new Rome walk but I just haven't got around to posting it up yet..and now it is several months old. It is over 6 hours though...which keeps me from wanting to finish it. :)
@@ProWalks can't wait to see it! Come on, you can do it!! We started to think about Rome, but we would have to drop Civita to do it. So we are torn, but oh the Colosseum! And the Roman forum!
I am addicted to your videos...they are by far the best online. We get to enjoy the sights and sounds, the inserted info is awesome, and your movements don't make me dizzy. LOL Well done!! :) Will be in Italy for 3 weeks May 2020. Can't wait!
Hi, I've been to Italy and saw the eternal city and the rest of the country in its entirety. Your videos transport me back in time so Thank you and pls keep posting🙏🏼
I really love how there's no music playing or talking and don't have to hear anything annoying silly narrations just a gorgeous walk through its wonderful thank you
Thank you! I hope to film an updated 2020 Rome walk soon.
@@ProWalks can't wait!!
I live in northern Italy and I love Rome a lot.
The tour is beautiful, even the audio part, very impressive when passing from the street noise to the silence of the interior of the churches.
You were lucky not to find too much traffic and garbage in the streets, I saw only a vagabond asking for alms, no papers on the ground, or holes on the asphalt. Last time i was in Rome a few years ago, i saw a homeless woman who was washing herself completely naked at a fountain near Piazza della Repubblica ...
Unfortunately you have lost a lot of interesting things that you have passed by, for those who wish to know more, for example:
33:37 on the right, the Chigi Palace, seat of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers
35:59 behind the obelisk the Palazzo di Montecitorio, the seat of the Chamber of Deputies, one of the two parts of the Italian Parliament
1:24:25 if you put yourself near one of the fountains (which are in the fires of the ellipse) you could see all the columns lined up
2:08:00 on the left you can see the memorial plaque of one of the most tragic events of contemporary Italian history: here was found the corpse of Aldo Moro, the kidnapped prime minister, imprisoned and killed by the Red Brigades in 1978, symbolic event of the darker period of terrorism in Italy
2:59:56 on the right, under the staircase, you can see the rare remains of a Roman popular house ("Insula") of the second century.
3:03:45 on the left, Palazzo Venezia, with the balcony from which Mussolini were used to speak to the crowd
4:37:40 detail to the left of the beautiful square with the wonderful fountain of the Naiads (no water for maintenance)
4:53:59 the beautiful intersection of the Four Fountains, which can be seen at the four corners
5:31:29 in front of Bulgari, you can see on the right the historic Caffè Greco, founded in 1760, a café-museum with over 300 works on display, a meeting point for all the past artists in Rome
5:47:35 The Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, one of the most important and ancient in Italy
In the video is missing a very beautiful piece of Rome: the Gianicolo hill and Trastevere and the wonderful Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano, with its breathtaking ceiling !!!
Here is a site full of strange curiosities about Rome: www.romasegreta.it
More Rome! That's what I needed! 😊😉
These are the best videos on RUclips. Thanks for NOT putting music in and thanks for going inside that church. Woe
YES !!! thanks for NOT putting music neither silly comments.
YOU DO THE BEST TURIST VIDEO ON RUclips!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Well that is really great to hear! RUclips is a big place! Thanks for watching and for supporting my channel!
Gotta love Rome and it’s historic streets
When the tour is about the city and not about the guide. Magnificent job!!!
5 ore di video continuo, sei un grande !
Simply Superb! Informative, entertaining and best of all, no intruding music just the ambient sounds of Rome. Thank you
Hey Ron, Glad you enjoyed the format of it all. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for all the informative, historical captions! Great walk in my favorite city to visit!
Love the video 😊
I was in Rome a year ago this week. I stayed in an apartment in the Pizza di Pietra and had the view of Hadrian's Temple (37:39) at the window of my apartment. Our favorite restaurant was between the apartment and the Pantheon, Er Faciolaro (39:46). This video is fantastic and makes me want to go back to Roma so very much!
I like Rome. The streets are excellent for pedestrians. Clean and large. I like the Saint Andrew Garden. It reminds me of heaven. Also Fountain de Trevi and many others that I saw in your excellent video. Thank you so much for your great work!
Yes, rome is definitely a perfect city for walking. Every street is unique and interesting. It has been fun. There is still more in Rome i want to go walk. Thanks for watching!
I love your videos! And I appreciate the captions, in order to know where we are "walking"!! Please keep posting, congratulations!
Hi Sonia, thanks for watching! I have a question for you. Would you find it helpful if I were to introduce the walk at the beginning of the video? Basically, do you want to me at the beginning saying "Welcome to Prowalks. Today we're going to be taking a walking tour of _________. During this walk you will see this, this and this. Click on a timestamp in the video description to skip ahead to specific part of the walk." Would this improve the video....or do you just want to jump right into the walk? Thanks!!
Thanks for asking! In my opinion it would be a nice addition, specially if you provide the opt-out option. Really a good job, almost 6 hours walking in Rome!! ♥♥
Excellent! no narration...no music...it’s like actually being there:)
Meravigliosa la mia città ❤️
This is an absolutely wonderful video. We stayed in a hotel just off the Piazza Navonna in 1998. You retrace my steps.
here is absolutely the city in the center .. the slow approach allows you to get a good overview of the city .. the map material and the text complement meaningful.
Had a holiday in Rome a long time ago (1992), lovely to see it again, uninterrupted by commentary or superfluous background music, perfect walking pace...feel I'm visiting it again and this time seeing all the sights etc in peace and in comfort of my own living room! Thanks so much, excellent vid.
Hey, you are very welcome. I have a few new Rome walks I'll be posting up soon. I'm glad you enjoyed this one.
You are a very skilled cameramen. It is not easy at all to convey all that smoothness and walking rhythm so effortlessly.
Hey, thanks. It has taken a bit of practice to realized what will look good on a TV screen. I'm still working on it but I think the videos are getting better as I go. Thanks for watching!
Este vídeo me ayudó a recordar mis caminatas por Roma,la mas hermosa y maravillosa ciudad de Europa!
du Mundo
i was in Rome cca 15 years ago, but i was kinda lost all the way....you made it so simple and beautiful that i'm almost ashamed to admit my total confusion at the TREVI FOUNTAIN, that i found out lately that i was there already....silly me, but one thing i remember clearly. it was the PANTHEON, which fitted me the most...i prayed in front of COLLOSEUM, while others did it at St PETERS BASILICA, which is colossal in its own right, BUT NOTHING CAN COMPARE TO YOUR PROWALKS WHICH ARE STUNNING AND MARVELLOUSLY EXPLAINED WITH CAPTIONS AND TITLES (from Sorrento to Sasseto Forest), you are my only tourist guide, so thank you, man!!!!!!!
Wow! That is quite the complement! Yeah i imagine traveling 15 years ago was a much different experience. It is hard to get lost now and pretty easy to plan the trip especially with google earth. Well i have a lot more walks planned..... Hopefully florence, Venice, matera and cairo will all happen in the early fall. I am back in the states for a few weeks now visiting family. I just did a 9 mile walk at mt. St. Helens that I'll get posted up at some point. Thanks for watching!
Our first night in Rome it was raining lightly and we were a little jet-lagged but we went out for a walk anyway to get some air. It was well after dark and the rain had mostly stopped when we walked through the Porto del Popolo and into the piazza. The lights in the piazza reflects in each of the rain-wet cobblestones and it was like walking across a field of stars. I'll remember that for the rest of my days.
Interesting! Sounds pretty awesome!
Thank you very much for these videos, they are always playing in the background at my house, I love the street ambient noise.
That's great. Would you be interested in longer tripod takes at a single location? Say, 5-10 minutes of just the hustle and bustle at the Trevi fountain? If it is something you leave on for background ambient noise, do you have any requests or suggestions?
@@ProWalks Hi there! Yes that'd be great! There are a few places that you visited in which I'd love to see a tripod take, like the Mercato Centrale in Florence, and the fish Market in Venice (or any other market in fact). Also it'd be great if you do a bus/train stations, especially the smaller outdoor platforms in Cinque Terre region overlooking the sea.
Thank you again for the amazing tours!
GREAT way to relive our 2 weeks in Roma June 2019 while hiding at home from Wuhan virus and riding stationary bike. Great memories are made of this. Thank you very much.
Congratulations for that awesome video.
Amazing picture quality and text.
Rome is really really a place where all of us should go and feel.
Once feel the history beneath its legs.
Hey, thanks! Glad you enjoyed to video and the format.
The best tour video, without annoying music.
Hey, thanks! I'm glad you liked it. Hopefully you saw something new.
@@ProWalks I'm from Rome :)
Ha! Well.. In that case, tell me what I missed and I'll go back and make a part 2. :)
@@ProWalks Oh, thank you very much for your kindness. I was looking for real videos about my city because I'm out in this period and I miss Rome so much! Well, you can only find standard videos on RUclips, with annoying music or too much talking, all the same. And finally I find you, thanks God, and it's like being there. Thank you. If I notice something, I will tell you! :)
I have to finish (still on 2 hours)
I had the worst customer experience in that store called MARCO MARCO at 6:37. The staff were the rudest sales people I have ever encountered on this planet. Put a bad taste in my mouth that trip but I still love Rome.
Amazing. Simply best virtual walking video. Wonderful presentation. Thank you my friend.
absolutely love your videos My friend, Grazie! Really enjoy all the art & history of Rome, and all of Italy.
Thank you very much from Russia! The best tour ever!
Hey, you are very welcome. I'll be back in Rome tomorrow to film a short walk.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.I'M VERY APPRECIATE. MISSED ITALY. YOUR VIDEO IS INCREDIBLE
Absolutely great! Thanks for these, always!
Hey, Thanks Robb! I hope you enjoy the whole 15 miles. :)
Thank you for this wonderful video. I live in Rome, but right now I'm stuck at home because of the coronavirus, I can't wait to get out and go back to my long walks in those streets and squares, untill that moment I will enjoy videos like this one!
Amazing walk through Rome! Very well thought and execution. Italy is perfect for walking... and here is the proof! Great job... and keep on walking! There's plenty more for you to explore.
Beautiful, very informative.
I just toured Rome while in bed sick. Thank you many times over. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Your videos are spectacular and make me feel like walking with you in Rome everywhere. Thank you very much indeed. Absolute ProWalks. 👍👍👍
Hey, you're welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the walks. I need to speed up my work flow. I have many more walks to get posted up. Thanks for watching!
@@ProWalks That's great. Thanks 👍👍👍
Ohhh. This is an amazing video. Quality is really high. You explained every detail. I will go to Rome at this weekend. Before going to Rome , this video helped me to understand streets of Rome. Thank you so much.
Hey, that's great to hear. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
That was wonderful thank you SO much I am 65 I was at the coliseum just before I was 20 over 46 years ago..wow
I was able to stand up in it on a floor above arena n you saw thr lower floor with all the passageways n lock ups for gladiators n animals etc
Was sad n amazing
Love, love, love this video. Keep doing this. You’re the best!
Hi, Thanks! Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for this wonderful video! It may sound ridiculous since I live in Rome, but you made me wanted to have a walk in the center, it is so long I don’t find time to go sightseeing in my own city!! Next Sunday I’ll be a tourist, promised!
Thank you so much for making this video!
Hey, you're welcome. I don't mind walking around Rome for 6 hours. :) Thanks for watching!
@@ProWalks thanks for the comment. Do you know if busking is alowed in rome?
OMG! This is the most magnificent video on Rome bar none! It is so spectacular that it almost brought tears to my eyes! Namely because I have been there many times and your video reminded me of all the wonderful times I spent there. Also, your video is so awesome because you DO NOT have the usual stupid music, and therefore you allow us, the viewers, to hear the sounds of Roma, and thus, truly feel like we're there! That was the best part of this gorgeous video, which you edited beautifully. I saw once and will view it again. Are you going to do one on Florence and Venice, and maybe Siena? Thank you so much for bringing me such joy by viewing your gorgeous video. You should be very pride of yourself! Thank you!
Hi, that's great to hear! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I need to go back and film some places I missed. I will definitely be going to Florence and Venice. I haven't been to Siena yet though so that might have to wait. I went to Florence once already to film but it was so crowded and several sections of town were blocked off for a bicycle race, so I just got back on the train and went home. :) I might try to go up at Christmas time and walk around when the lights are up. Thank you for supporting my channel!
You are very welcome! You deserve much and high praise for the magnificent work you do. I so love the fact that you have NO MUSIC, which is so ridiculous in so many travel videos I've seen, and that we can hear the places you are filming. I especially love all the work you put into all the HISTORICAL INFORMATION which is awesome and is accurate since I myself did research before arriving at the places you filmed. You're on point! Fantastic job you're doing! So, so relaxing to see your wonderful videos, especially since I've been there to some of them. Hope you do one soon of Florence, Venice, and I strongly suggest one on Siena since it's a gorgeous place to do a walking tour. As well as Verona. You will love walking at these three towns. Thanks again for your work.
Amazing Footage, The Best I have ever seen of ROME . . . from the comfort of my Living room in Portland, Oregon . . . Excellent video . . . keep up the great WORK!
Supposed to fly to Rome today but cancelled due to the covid crisis. Re-booked for April 2021. Can't wait. Love watching this video. Thanks for posting :)
Thank you so much for this wonderful walking tour of Rome!!!!!!
This is EPIC!!! Love this walking tour. Because of this, I believe I have the confidence to plan a solo trip from the U.S. and know where to stay and how to get around. Thank You so much. And this was even before I hit the 3 hour mark!!!!
Hi, that's great to hear! I'm sure others have done this but maybe I'll go back and make a short video about how all the different modes of public transportation work. Rome is pretty easy. Good luck planning and feel free to ask me any questions.
ProWalks that would be awesome. I was planning to do it all on foot.
Went on a solo trip from US last year and have no regrets. Youll love it!
Estimado amigo seguí las 6 horas contigo y fue como si yo hubiese recorrido esos lugares. Muchas gracias por compartir esta aventura¡¡¡¡¡
That is great to hear! I am glad you enjoyed the walk! Thanks for watching!
Amazing video, love this so much. Your captions are wonderful!!
Thanks! That's great to hear. There are a few spelling errors I didn't catch...maybe more than a few. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! Did you notice the Time stamps in the video description so you could skip ahead? I am trying to decide if I need to provide an introduction...with me speaking about what viewers are going to see in the video and how to skip ahead. It can be hard to navigate a 5 hour video. I have a Pompeii video almost finished that is over 4 hours.
Thanks for your reply! I didn't notice any spelling errors at all and I'm amazed you took the time and effort to put captions for all the places you went to along with descriptions and some history. I did not notice you put time stamps in the video description, thanks for letting me know as well although I have been watching continuously without the need to fast forward as I'm really enjoying it :) I also love that you captured all the natural sounds so it's like as if we're walking there together with you. This will be very useful for people who are home bound and are unable to travel - I will recommend your video to my friends. Lastly, I will be in Rome in November this year so this video is very helpful for me. Once again, thanks for doing such a great job and I'll be sure to check out your other videos.
i enjoy watching your videos feels like a history class in a guided tour
WOW, What an Amazing Video, CRYSTAL CLEAR, and So Much history and information, Unbelievable!!!!!!! These Videos Should Win a Prize. No kidding.
Lol...well I appreciate that. I am doing my best to make it a good viewing experience. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for doing this great video .You are the best
Awesome video! Specially from someone who had just been there a few weeks ago - it brought back good memories from different places in Rome. I so love the place. Thanks.
This is the best channel for travel ever! What a wonderful magical thing you are all doing!
If you haven’t already, please film Southern Tyrol in Italy. There are beautiful little towns there. As I mentioned previously, you’re videos are fantastic!
Wonderful! Is my dream to visit Rome, but has not materialised so far. Now with this video, I feel like I'm actually there! Thanks a ton for this treat!
Hey You're welcome. I hope to film an updated Rome walk here in the near future. Thanks for watching.
I have subscribed to the chanal because of the surrounded sound that is so clear < when you you pass beside talking people I can still hear them in the back as if they were with me at my room , best walk tours ever
Yeah, I hope others discover how much better it is to watch with headphones on. It makes it much more fun to watch. I'm glad you enjoyed the walk. I appreciate you taking time to comment.
I like your annotations to each scenic spots!
Hey, thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Beautifully done my friend!!
I watch your video's all the time,just like being there with you!!
Thank you,great job!!
We are very excited and really like your creative ideas, made it enjoyable to watch and keep watching, hope you continue this great idea forever.
☺️😀😍 You did good job here! Thanks for sharing!
I looked at it every minute and I really enjoyed it. So much information. Magnificent. I have been able to extract a lot of information and take my steps back from when I have been there. Now at least I know what that is and where it is.
It is my life dream to go to Rome, I fear it will never happen, but this is almost as good. Thank you so much.
Ciao Jerome, I hope you can make it to Rome some day. Things have a way of coming around. In the meantime, I'm glad you're enjoying the walk.
What a brilliant video - thank you! I can see how much work this must have been to film and edit. Those steps at 02:45:50 looked like hard going!
Hey, thanks. Yeah this one took a while. When I started this channel I wasn't planning on adding the captions or titles. They take a while to edit now. I hope things on your channel are going well!
I watch everything in 2x speed. Because 5+ hours takes a big chunk out of the day. But even at that speed it's still good to watch.
We were there Apr. 26 to 29 2018, Walking with
you brings it all back.
Thank you
I'd love to go there. It seems to be everyone's favorite European city.
Go check it out. Lots of cool stuff to see 👍🏼
Lovely tour, thank you. I also have been to Italy several times many years ago. Also to Rome - even once flew in the day after Christmas. Vatican City was breath-taking during the holidays.
I appreciate that. I'll be posting up an updated Rome walk later this summer. There is much more to see.
I learned so much from your video with the historical and other information you supplied . I just really enjoy learning the history of a place. Thank you so much for making your videos. You have opened up the world for me as I cannot travel myself having food sensitives so would not be able to eat the local food.
Hi Donna, I just went to Rome last weekend and filmed a bike ride and an evening walk. They both turned out well and I'm excited to get them posted up. I have two other walks to post first. I'm heading back to Rome this weekend with the family. Is there anything specific you'd like to see? Like I said in the other comment, I would like to post up more members only content. I'll try to film little things while I'm there. Thanks again for your support!
@@ProWalks Thank you for offering to show specific things and what a great service you provide for us your viewers. Whatever you can provide would be great as I have never been it is hard to specify anything and I would not like to limit anything you do and look forward very much to your new postings. I hope you have a great trip with your family.
