Rome Guide 4.1.0.0
Since this activity can be carried out very well even if you are on the move, you can try one of the apps for Windows Phone dedicated to that purpose and going by the name of Rome Guide.
Practical front-end made for ease of use
From the visual perspective, this application doesn't offer a lot since its looks are mainly designed to be more functional than appealing. Everything revolves around the map displayed inside the main screen and all the functions and commands are placed conveniently, for quick access.
A very positive aspect is the pleasant experience coming from the fluent map navigation in the road view, as well as in the aerial mode and also among the several areas of the app, lacking any kind of lag or some other type of flaw.
Find interesting places to visit and check them out on the spot
With Rome Guide you have at your disposal over 70 tourist attractions that are starred on the map, so by zooming in and pressing once on the number assigned to each of them you can view their name. A second tap, this time on the name of the selected place will open the corresponding informative section.
In case you want to have all the locations at hand and go through them in order, you can go for the places list, where the local attractions are arranged alphabetically. The app also integrates seamlessly with the navigation solution of your phone and this will help you get directions to any of the spots you want to visit.
Read interesting info about Rome's attractions and enjoy some nice pictures
Upon selecting a certain place from the map or the built-in list, Rome Guide will offer a detailed insight, including some relevant photos and all the information is provided courtesy of Wikipedia.
Nonetheless, you should check the original pages, by accessing the links inside each article and verify the details as some of them might be obsolete.
