ItalyGuides.it today reinvented audio-guides, giving them the feel of "Cinema" instead of the academism of traditional ones, with movie-style music, narration by American voice actor Gregory Snegoff, images and sound effects, dramatically enhancing the storytelling process.
Roman Coliseum events, gladiator fights, Michelangelo's David in Florence or Venice with its magic, spectacular scenarios will live in your iPod and will tell you what Italy was like at the height of its splendour.

-
Rome: Trevi Fountain - v2.0
This extraordinary work of art is more than just a sculpture: it is a triumphant example of Baroque art, whose depictions of nature and imaginary creatures embody the movement of water as the soul of the world.
-
Rome: The Pantheon - v2.0
The Pantheon is the Roman monument holding the greatest number of records: the best preserved, with the biggest brick dome in the history of architecture and is considered the forerunner of all modern places of worship. It is the most copied and imitated of all ancient works.
Michelangelo felt it was the work of angels not men. -
Rome: The Vatican Museums: The Birth [1 of 18] - v2.0
This is the start of a mysterious and fascinating trip: a voyage across more than 20 centuries of creativity through which art and history intertwine, telling the story of what human ingenuity has created through the ages.
-
Rome: The Circus Maximus - v2.0
Excitement, risk and tension, were the ingredients of every chariot race. Circus Maximus is the biggest sports stadium ever built. Just think that it could hold almost three hundred and eighty thousand visitors with free access to races. Almost four times bigger than the biggest stadium today, an incredible number.

Italy Travel Guides
What an excellent idea! I am traveling to Italy with my i-Pod now I can take my own travel guide.
Only available for a few topics for Rome and Venice, but Florence is available directly from Italy Guides.

Great for visiting Italy
I used all the guides available from www.italyguides.it on my recent trip to Italy. We visited Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome, and the Amalfi Coast. These guides came in handy and were great because you didn't have to pay for an audio guide while touring some of the sites. I wish they had guides/maps for Pompeii and Herculaneum...even though you get a great guidebook/map at each site a free audioguide would have been awesome so you don't have to read while walking around. Rick Steves also has free audioguides for Italy which are pretty good...I supplemented the guides I got from ItalyGuides.it with his. Prego!
Great and fun to listen to
Great free resource
