Privat promenad genom det judiska gettot i Rom
Beskrivning
Upptäck skönheten, mystiken och historien i världens äldsta judiska getto och hitta Roms gömda skatter som de flesta turister aldrig ser. Denna rundtur i den mer lokala sidan av Rom får dig att träffa din vänliga expertguide på Piazza Venezia på norra sidan av Trajanus kolumn innan du beger dig in i det berömda judiska gettot eller judiska kvarteren. Upptäck en av de äldsta och fortfarande fungerande delarna av Rom när din guide väcker detta område till liv.

Resplan
Vi börjar vid Trajanus kolumn och ser Piazza Venezia innan vi går uppför de svagt sluttande trappstegen till Piazza del Campidoglio för att se den fantastiska utformningen av torget som alla föreställdes av den store Michelangelo, och nu hem till de berömda Capitoline-museerna.
Härifrån går vi till Marcellus teater, ofta skämtsamt kallad det lilla Colosseum. Även om arkitektoniskt liknar Colosseum, är Marcellus-teatern något äldre, med anor ända tillbaka till 12 f.Kr. och den rymde inte någon av blodsporterna, och är nu hem för några lyckliga invånare som bor i lägenheterna ovanför teatern .
På vår promenad kommer vi att se de många restaurangerna i grannskapet och stanna för en smak av traditionell kosher gelato. Sedan kommer vi att ha en kort promenad till den magnifika Fontana delle Tartarughe (Sköldpaddsfontänen), ett sant mästerverk från den sena italienska renässansen, där du kommer att upptäcka hur den byggdes berömt på bara en dag.
Detta är det äldsta judiska gettot, byggt 1555. Påven upphävde alla rättigheter som tilldelats de romerska judarna och hindrade dem från all typ av handel och möjligheten att äga fastigheter. Trots detta blomstrade det judiska samfundet inom utvecklingen av affärshandel, ett unikt och underbart kök innanför deras väggar och till och med sin egen dialekt av italienska. Den stora synagogan, fortfarande den tredje största i Europa, fungerar idag som en plats för bön och en viktig kulturell referenspunkt för hela det judiska samfundet i Rom.
Härifrån är det en mycket kort promenad till Porticus Octaviae, en enorm byggnad byggd av kejsar Augustus för att hedra sin syster Octavia. Från 1400-talet till början av 1900-talet var det hem för Roms fiskmarknad. Det är härifrån vi går in i själva gettot.
Avslutande på Tiberön där förr och nu glider sömlöst samman, användes ön av de gamla romarna som ett sjukhus med floden som hjälpte dem som en naturlig barriär som hjälper till att stoppa spridningen av sjukdomar, och ett av Roms bästa sjukhus kan fortfarande vara hittade på den sidan idag. Ön har en vacker utsikt över floden och är bekvämt placerad mellan gettot och den lokala stadsdelen Trastevere och har goda förbindelser för att komma tillbaka till alla delar av staden.

Jaime’s knowledge on the Discovering Jewish history walking tour was excellent and he sprinkled the discussion with anicdotes and stories. My only negative was that at the beginning he probably spent a little too long talking about the history before we actually got walking. Having said that his knowledge was amazing !! Lovely guy on top of everything !!
Ciao! Many thanks for your kind words. We are so glad you enjoyed thr tour with Jamie. He has such a passion for history and it really comes out on his tours. There is a lot of history to discuss on the tour and he might have extended it a bit to allow late comers to catch the group before actually setting off. We will discuss it with him however. Many thanks once again and we hope you have a wonderful time in Rome. Safe travels!

We really enjoyed The Tour of The Jewish Ghetto with Roman Vacations. We were thrilled with our guide , he was kind and really intelligent and patient. Our tour was comprised of couples and families and each person appeared really engaged. We travelled with our young adult son and each of us really took so much from our guides tour. We would definitely use them again , they provided an exemplary service that is exactly as outlined on their website and much more. The tour was filled will tons of sights from Roman Temples to Pagan ruins. The Jewish Ghetto was beautiful despite its innocent residents horrific abuse and murder , from the expulsions and mistreatment to the forced deportations and murder of innocent Jewish men , woman and children during the Holocaust. Their stories were told both factually and respectfully by our guide. There are also beautifully crafted brass floor tiles outside the homes commemorating the names and place of death of Jewish victims of the Nazis . This really is a highly recommended company and Tour as our guide did an incredible job on all levels. He covered this tour with breadth and scope and we are really thankful to have been on his tour. It was crazy hot in Rome and the complementary delicious gelato at a wonderful Gelateria in the heart of the Jewish Ghetto was a welcome and nice surprise. Thank you for a memorable day.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! We are so, so, glad we were able to give you such a wonderful experience. We hope to see you again!
