# Private Tour - Trastevere and Villa Farnesina

**Guidekin's take:** A private walk through Trastevere as the medieval district it still is, with the mosaics of its churches and a visit inside the Renaissance Villa Farnesina and its frescoes, rated 5 across 36 reviews. Tickets and the private guide are included at €135 per person, pickup and transport are not. Moderate fitness needed.

## Overview

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.
