What to expect

  1. Tempio di Giuturna
    20m
    Snacks and facts through Rome means that you get to bite into a slice of pizza whilst your guide tells you that you are in the very spot where Julius Caesar was assassinated.
  2. Piazza Mattei
    20m
    We will wander through the charming backstreets to Piazza Mattei, one of Rome's most beautiful hidden squares. Here we'll admire the famous Fountain of the Turtles while exploring the Renaissance and Baroque transformation of Rome, discovering how powerful families shaped the city we see today.
  3. Jewish Community Of Rome
    20m
    Next, we'll enter Rome's historic Jewish Ghetto, one of the oldest Jewish communities in Europe. You'll learn how this neighbourhood remained enclosed for over 300 years and how its unique history gave rise to one of Rome's most iconic dishes: Carciofi alla Giudia (Jewish-style fried artichokes). We'll stop to taste this local specialty while discussing the traditions that continue to define the neighborhood today.
  4. Mercato di Piazza dei Ciompi
    30m
    No visit to Rome is complete without authentic gelato. We'll enjoy handcrafted gelato while discovering what truly separates traditional Italian gelato from regular ice cream, from its ingredients and production methods to the role it plays in Italian daily life.

    We'll finish our journey in the lively Campo de' Fiori, one of Rome's most vibrant squares. Here you'll have the opportunity to enjoy an authentic Italian espresso or coffee while learning about Italian coffee culture and the fascinating history of the square, from its bustling market to the story of philosopher Giordano Bruno.
