From the guide

A walking tour to discover the ancient district of Trastevere. This neighborhood is still considered today one of the authentical original areas of Rome. It became famous for food and wine and today it is a perfect place to understand the development of the city especially in the Middle Ages. Here, in fact, we will visit many important Churches created in those times with incredible decorations and mosaics. We will have the opportunity to visit a XVI Villa too, in order to enjoy the Renaissance work of Raphael, whose lover lived in this district. We can consider this district of Rome a Museum at the open air.
Some of the highlights of this Tour:

- Villa Farnesina
- Santa Maria in Trastevere
- Walking throught the characteristic roads of the district
- Santa Cecilia in Trastevere
- Crypt of Santa Cecilia in Trastevere
