Rome has many neighborhoods that are centrally located in the city, yet remain unexplored except by those in the know. Our Trastevere and Jewish Rome Tours is fascinating exploration through two of Rome’s most historically rich neighborhoods. Learn another layer of Rome’s phenomenal history!
The Jewish area is known in Rome as the Ghetto. Both the Jewish Ghetto and Trastevere have histories that tell another side of life in Rome over the past 2,000 years. In this small group tour, you will be able to learn about the gripping history of the Jewish population in Rome, and their impact in the city’s ancient and contemporary life.
At the end of the tour, savor your experience with a coffee or gelato on us!

5.00Phenomenal tour by Rish who infused our experience with deep knowledge, excellent storytelling, and personal interest. Rish’s familiarity with the neighborhood made for an informative two hours, complete with a stop at a local bakery for true Italian biscotti! Can’t recommend highly enough. We will be back for sure!

5.00Our groups was seeking a tour beyond the standard Rome excursions. We’ve all visited Rome previously and wanted to expand our knowledge and the city sights. This tour of Trastevere and the Jewish Ghetto with Marco exceeded our expectations.
