Trastevere sits on the other side of the Tiber, close enough to the historic centre to walk, far enough to feel like a different city. Its streets are narrow, its buildings are old, and its restaurants have been feeding the people who live here for longer than Rome has been a tourist destination. This tour starts on the Tiber Island, one of the oldest inhabited islands in Europe, and spends four hours moving through what makes the neighbourhood worth the crossing.
You'll drink prosecco with a seasonal bite from one of Trastevere's most loved addresses, then descend into a wine cellar that was already ancient when Rome was still an empire. There's porchetta in white pizza from a norcineria on a back street, street food grabbed between stops, and a sit-down plate of amatriciana with a glass of wine at a trattoria that belongs to the people who live around it. Along the way, a church mosaic from the 4th century and a square where locals sit long after everyone else has gone home.
Fatamorgana closes the evening. They make gelato from ingredients most gelaterie wouldn't attempt, and it works.
Experience Trastevere like a true Roman does on our small group walking food tour.
