Itinerary and highlights

Step into Rome’s most authentic neighborhoods on a private walking tour through Trastevere and the Jewish Ghetto, designed around your interests and pace. Meet your expert local guide and begin in Trastevere, one of the city’s oldest districts, known for its lively atmosphere and well-preserved medieval character. Wander through narrow cobbled streets, hidden alleys, and charming squares that reflect centuries of Roman life.

Continue your exploration with visits to some of Trastevere’s most important religious landmarks. Admire the Basilica of Santa Maria in Trastevere, one of Rome’s oldest Christian churches, and discover the Basilica of Santa Cecilia, built on the site of the saint’s former home. Along the way, your guide shares stories that bring the area’s history and art to life.

Cross the Tiber River and take in views of Ponte Rotto, the remains of Rome’s oldest stone bridge, as you make your way to the historic Jewish Ghetto. Established in 1555, this area offers a powerful glimpse into the history of Rome’s Jewish community. Walk through its streets and learn how this once-enclosed quarter has transformed into one of the city’s most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods.

As you explore, spot Jewish-owned businesses, kosher restaurants, and traditional shops that continue to shape daily life in the area. Your experience ends with a well-earned local treat—enjoy a slice of classic Roman pizza while soaking in the atmosphere of this unique part of the city.
