Itinéraire
Nous commencerons à la colonne de Trajan et traverserons la Piazza Venezia avant de monter les marches en pente douce jusqu'à la Piazza del Campidoglio pour voir le merveilleux design de la place qui a été imaginé par le grand Michel-Ange et qui abrite aujourd'hui les célèbres musées du Capitole.
De là, nous marchons vers le théâtre de Marcellus, souvent appelé en plaisantant le petit Colisée. Bien qu'architecture similaire au Colisée, le théâtre de Marcellus est légèrement plus ancien, datant de 12 avant JC et il n'a abrité aucun des sports de sang, et abrite maintenant quelques résidents chanceux qui vivent dans les appartements au-dessus du théâtre. .
Au cours de notre promenade, nous verrons les nombreux restaurants du quartier et nous nous arrêterons pour goûter à la glace traditionnelle casher. Ensuite, nous ferons une courte promenade jusqu'à la magnifique Fontana delle Tartarughe (la fontaine aux tortues), un véritable chef-d'œuvre de la fin de la Renaissance italienne, où vous découvrirez comment elle a été construite en une seule journée.
Construit en 1555, c'est le plus ancien ghetto juif. Le pape a révoqué tous les droits accordés aux Juifs romains et leur a interdit tout type de commerce et la possibilité de posséder des biens immobiliers. Malgré cela, la communauté juive a prospéré dans le développement du commerce, une cuisine unique et merveilleuse à l'intérieur de ses murs et même son propre dialecte italien. La Grande Synagogue, toujours la troisième plus grande d'Europe, fonctionne aujourd'hui comme un lieu de prière et un point de référence culturel vital pour toute la communauté juive de Rome.
De là, il y a une très courte promenade jusqu'au Porticus Octaviae, une énorme structure construite par l'empereur Auguste en l'honneur de sa sœur Octavia. Du XVe au début du XXe siècle, c'était le foyer du marché aux poissons de Rome. C'est d'ici que nous entrons dans le ghetto lui-même.
Concluant à l'île du Tibre où le passé et le présent se confondent parfaitement, l'île a été utilisée par les anciens Romains comme un hôpital, la rivière les aidant comme barrière naturelle aidant à arrêter la propagation de la maladie, et l'un des meilleurs hôpitaux de Rome peut encore être trouvé sur ce site aujourd'hui. Offrant une vue magnifique sur la rivière, l'île est idéalement placée entre le ghetto et le quartier local de Trastevere et est bien connectée pour revenir à n'importe quelle partie de la ville.

I was very disappointed this tour was canceled with 20 minutes notice. As this was our only day in Rome left we were not able to reschedule.
Ciao, Thank you for your message. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the cancellation and completely understand your disappointment, especially as it was your last day in Rome. Unfortunately, our guide became unwell on the morning of the tour. Until the very last moment, they genuinely hoped they would be able to conduct the tour, which is why we were unable to provide earlier notice. As this was an early morning tour, the situation developed very quickly, leaving us with extremely limited time to react. As soon as it became clear that the tour could not operate, we immediately began searching for a replacement guide. Despite making every effort and contacting available guides, we were unfortunately unable to find someone qualified and available at such short notice. We fully understand that this situation affected your plans, and we are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused. While the circumstances were beyond our control, we did everything possible to avoid canceling the tour. Thank you for your understanding. Kind regards, Roman Vacations Team

Our family had a wonderful experience on this tour - we learned a ton but Jamie kept it dynamic, humorous, and didn’t get too bogged down in the weeds. He made great use of our time. It was only us so appreciated the personal experience and ability to ask our questions, and he accommodated the 4 year old in our crew needing to stop a few times. Loved the emphasis on most Romans supporting their Jewish neighbors throughout history. It was heavy at points but also uplifting and he did a great job balancing those themes. Also the gelato was incredible. Highly recommend!
