Rome Jewish Ghetto and Great Synagogue Walking Tour

Step into Rome’s Jewish Ghetto, a historic neighborhood that remains at the heart of the city’s Jewish community. On this Rome Jewish Ghetto walking tour, a local guide shares the stories behind its streets and landmarks, offering a slower, more intimate perspective on the city.

Visit the Great Synagogue and Jewish Museum, where your guide brings the sites and their place in Jewish history to life. The tour includes admission and guided explanations inside both venues. If the Great Synagogue is closed, the guide will continue the explanation from outside. On Shabbat, a guided stroll may be available without visits to the museum or synagogue; contact the provider for details.

Meet in front of Portico d’Ottavia, the ancient Roman building. Taxis cannot enter the Jewish area, so plan to walk to the meeting point. Tours require a minimum of four participants and are available in English, with Spanish and Italian on request. Discover a quieter, deeply rooted side of Rome on this Rome Jewish Ghetto walking tour.
