About this experience

This walking tour explores the Jewish Ghetto, the area historically where Jews were confined and now a vibrant community. Participants will visit significant Jewish sites, guided by a local from the Jewish community of Rome. The tour features the Rome Synagogue and the Jewish Museum, which are key to understanding Jewish history in the city. It is designed for those who prefer a relaxed pace, contrasting with the busy atmosphere of Rome. On Shabbath, a guided walk in the Jewish quarter is available without museum or synagogue visits, meaning no entrance fees or hearing devices are required. For afternoon tours or additional information, contact the provider.
