Trastevere tours

Explore the hidden corners of Rome with a stroll around Trastevere, a formerly working-class district today center of Roman nighlife. Trastevere is named for its position 'over the Tiber', in fact, it is separated from the heart of central Rome by the river.

The area retained its narrow lanes and working-class population when the rest of Rome began its nineteenth-century expansion. Today pubs, restaurants, clubs are side by side with gloomy ancient premises and immersed in a picturesque medieval environment. The heart of Trastevere is Piazza di Santa Maria in Trastevere, a pedestrianised square piazza lined with restaurants and pricey bars, faded palazzi, and dominated by the church of Santa Maria in Trastevere.

It is easy to find lovely lanes to explore in this ares, and it's not too difficult to step off the main routes and escape the masses.
