Step away from Rome’s grand monuments and discover a quieter, more intriguing side of the Eternal City, where centuries of history lie hidden beneath cobbled streets and some of its most beautiful neighborhoods. Beginning in atmospheric Trastevere, this experience takes you from ancient underground churches to historic local food stops, gradually revealing the many layers that make Rome so fascinating. Explore Santa Cecilia in Trastevere and descend beneath San Crisogono to uncover traces of an earlier Rome hidden below the modern city. From there, continue through the lively streets of Trastevere towards Campo de’ Fiori, stopping along the way at a historic biscuit bakery and tasting some of the flavors most closely associated with Roman life: local wines, Roman pizza and the beloved filetto di baccalà. This experience is ideal for curious travelers, food lovers, history enthusiasts and repeat visitors to Rome who want to move beyond the city's most famous landmarks and experience something more intimate and authentic.
