Walks in Rome
Roma segreta: Pasquino, le statue parlanti e i vicoli del Rinascimento
Dalla Torre della Scimmia alla galleria che inganna l'occhio di Borromini: banchieri, papi, piene del Tevere e satire anonime nei rioni Ponte, Parione e Regola
La Roma operaia e la street art: dal Gazometro dell'Ostiense ai lotti della Garbatella
Archeologia industriale, muri dipinti e statue antiche tra le turbine della Centrale Montemartini, poi la città giardino della Garbatella fino alla Basilica di San Paolo: la Roma che lavora, quella che le guide dimenticano
Trastevere secret et le Janicule : de l'île Tibérine au balcon de Rome
Une île guérisseuse, la plus vieille cloche de Rome, l'extase du Bernin, la villa de Raphaël et de la Fornarina, le Tempietto de Bramante et le canon de midi : les trésors cachés du Trastevere
El ojo de la cerradura y la colina de las ánforas: Aventino y Testaccio en Roma
De la Boca de la Verdad al naranjo de Santo Domingo de Guzmán y a una montaña hecha con cincuenta millones de ánforas de aceite andaluz: la Roma secreta del Aventino y el barrio que inventó la cocina romana
The Keyhole and the Amphora Hill: Aventine Secrets & Testaccio's Roman Soul

Trastevere und das Ghetto: Roms Dorf jenseits des Tibers
Von der Brücke eines eitlen Papstes durch die Gassen von Trastevere, zu Berninis Ludovica und der heiligen Cäcilie, über die Tiberinsel bis ins jüdische Ghetto von Rom: Brücken, Heilige, Artischocken und Erinnerung
Are Rome's streets easy to walk?
Central Rome is paved with historic basalt cobblestones (sampietrini), which can be uneven and slick in the rain. Comfortable, flat walking shoes are essential. The historic center is mostly flat, though routes over Aventine, Janiculum, or Capitoline involve gentle stone ascents.
Do I need special clothing for church stops?
Yes. Many stops visit or pass active basilicas and churches. If you step inside, knees and shoulders must be covered. The audio stories work perfectly from outside in the piazza if you prefer not to queue or go inside.
What languages are available for Rome?
The Rome collection is multilingual, offering independent routes authored in Spanish, Russian, English, German, French, and Italian. Each walk was written separately rather than translated, giving different perspectives on the city.
How much does a Rome walk cost?
The first story of every walk and the complete written text of all stops are completely free. When anyone unlocks unvoiced stops on a route, those audio stories become permanently free for all future visitors.
