HISTORY, FOOD, AND A DASH OF LA DOLCE VITA!
Tucked away on the western bank of the Tiber, Trastevere is where ancient Rome meets bohemian charm. A neighbourhood of cobbled streets, ivy-clad buildings, and lively piazzas, it’s the perfect spot to experience a slice of authentic Roman life, away from the tourist-packed city centre.
Kick off your Roman holiday by wandering through Trastevere's labyrinth of alleyways – making your way to the Basilica of Santa Maria, a gem of early Christian art. Its golden mosaics sparkle in the sunshine, and the piazza outside buzzes with energy.
If you love treasure hunts, the Porta Portese market is a must-visit. As Rome’s largest flea market, it’s an eclectic mix of vintage clothes, quirky antiques, and handmade crafts. Be prepared to haggle – it’s all part of the fun!
When it’s time to dine, head to one of the fantastic local trattorias to feast on classic Roman dishes like cacio e pepe and amatriciana or grab a fried supplì (Rome's take on arancini) for a quick snack on the go. Don’t miss the gelaterias dotted around – or your taste buds will never forgive you.
Looking for the perfect Instagram moment? Head up to Janiculum Hill (Gianicolo) for jaw-dropping views of Rome’s skyline. It’s a steep walk, but the panorama will have you singing That's Amore in no time.
When night falls, Trastevere comes alive. The area’s stylish bars and buzzing piazzas make it one of Rome's top spots for nightlife. Whether you fancy a glass of wine at a cosy enoteca or a lively cocktail bar in Piazza Trilussa, this neighbourhood knows how to party. Salute!
