Overview

Step into the heart of history with our captivating tour of Rome's Jewish Ghetto and Trastevere, a journey that offers a rich tapestry of culture and heritage. We'll begin in the Jewish Ghetto, a neighbourhood steeped in centuries of stories. Here, you'll wander down winding, cobblestone streets, gaining insight into the remarkable resilience of Rome's Jewish community. The layers of history in the Ghetto are palpable, and our expert guides will bring its past to life. From there, we'll venture onto the Tiber Island. Though small, this island is significant to Roman history and society, and we'll show you why. Your guide will then take you to the enchanting Trastevere district, a place where time seems to have been suspended. As you stroll through its charming, narrow alleys, you'll be surrounded by quaint, ivy-clad houses and centuries-old churches. Trastevere's character is alive and vibrant, offering a glimpse into the more rustic and traditional side of Rome.

A memorable introduction

Published on Jan, 2025

Ben is a friendly, respectful guide with a great sense of humour and a clear love of Roman history and culture. It was such a joy learning so much about the city's intimate and complicated relationship with its Jewish community as well as some eye-opening insights about a few key historical figures who have played a role in its story - popes, emperors, and dictators, etc. A memorable introduction to a rare jewel of the eternal city. Thank you again!

We had such a great time...

Tour of the Ghetto and travestere

Published on Nov, 2024

Alicia was charming, informative and friendly. The tour was interesting and sensitive to the Jewish people. Travestere was also fun - enjoyed exploring the alleyways. Good advice on where to eat and buy gelato!

Best Neighbourhood Tours of Rome

Published on Nov, 2024

This was a really engaging and informative tour. Ben was highly knowledgeable and personable. I really enjoyed touring both neighbourhoods. It’s very well worthwhile.

Outstanding

Published on Nov, 2024

This was a terrific tour. We were lucky to have alethea to ourselves and she gave us a informative and fascinating historical tour of the Jewish ghetto both on both sides of the river. She told fascinating stories about the history of the Jewish people in Rome from Roman times all the way up to almost present day. We visited historical sites including the Magnificent Temple located just outside the Jewish quarter. I would absolutely recommend this tour and our guide.
