The itinerary lasts an hour and takes place between the Tiber Island and Ponte Pietro Nenni, accompanied by a multilingual audio guide to deepen the knowledge of the history of Rome. Free lunch in a typical Roman trattoria. In the afternoon, we recommend a visit to the Jewish ghetto, a journey through Jewish history and tradition between art and gastronomy. Overlooking the left bank of the Tiber, and connected to the Tiber Island by Ponte Fabricio, the Jewish quarter is recognized by the presence of the eclectic building of the Synagogue. An unusual example of Art Nouveau style, the Tempio Maggiore was rebuilt in the early twentieth century after the district underwent major transformations due to the construction of the Muraglioni. Even today, however, the area is extremely characteristic with many kosher restaurants, shops and small shops. It is worth visiting the Jewish Museum which tells the bi-millenary story of the Roman Jewish community and allows you to enter the Great Temple, with magnificent artistic stained glass windows and the more intimate Spanish Temple.
