And by doing this independently, you have more time to take in the artwork, and to wander away from your self-guided tour when desired. The Angels and Demons landmarks are spread across the city so using the “path” as a template allows you to discover more of the city than the usual tourist attractions. We encourage you to take a similar approach to your days in Rome! By the end of our three days we felt we knew Rome a lot better than if we’d seen it from a bus. Using Brown’s ‘Path to Illumination’ as a vehicle to explore the city is not original to us! There are packaged Angels and Demons tours in Rome for this specific purpose, but we thought it’d be more fun, and more relaxing, to create our own walking tour of Rome, split over a few days. I hope it will help you as you decide what to do in Rome! We decided to create our own self-guided walking tour based on Angels and Demons. We’d read this book when it was first published and remembered how Brown’s descriptions of Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s sculptures had made us eager to see them in person. We’re always looking for different approaches to our travel adventures – biking, photography, and foodie tours- but when we knew we were spending some time in Rome we decided to revisit one of our favorite novels – Angels and Demons by Dan Brown.
