Overview

Join this tour of the historic Trastevere area to explore the world’s oldest Jewish Ghetto with the exclusive guidance of an expert archaeologist. Discover this small neighborhood, bordered by the Tiber River on one side and Piazza Venezia on the other. The quarter was established in 1555 under Pope Paul IV, who revoked all rights previously granted to the Roman Jewish community. A visit to this area offers a profound cultural and religious experience, further enriched by the remarkable Great Synagogue and the Jewish Museum.

Insight to a community.

Published on Jan, 2025

Manuela was so thoughtful and had great knowledge of the area and its history. We were astounded mixing the contrast of eras against a 2000 year old back drop. A sad but educational experience.

Fantastic Experience

Published on Jun, 2024

Paolo, our tour guide, was exceptional, providing a deeply engaging and informative experience. His extensive knowledge of history and attention to detail brought each site to life, making the tour both educational and unforgettable. I highly recommend Paolo to anyone seeking a rich cultural journey! Thank you Viator for assigning him to our private tour! JZ

Excelelnt Tour of Jewish Synagogue

Published on May, 2023

Loved seeing the Jewish museum and touring the synagogue. It was beautiful and the guide gave us great information about the Jewish experience during WWII. The items in the museum were very interesting. Also Toured the Jewish quarter - very busy on a Sunday..

A beautiful area in Rome

Published on Feb, 2020

The Synagogue was spectacular. The history of the Jewish people in Rome dates back to pre-Christians. The area is, of corse old, ( it’s Rome) and very beautiful. Plenty of small cafe’s to get a coffee or a bite to eat in.
