Exploring Rome's Rich Heritage: Pantheon and Jewish Ghetto
Discover the historical richness of Rome with this fascinating professional guided tour that connects two of its most iconic areas. Starting at the majestic Pantheon, one of the best-preserved monuments of Ancient Rome, you will explore its impressive structure, characterized by its massive domed ceiling with an oculus that allows natural light to illuminate the interior. Originally built as a temple for all gods, the Pantheon now serves as the final resting place for notable figures, including Renaissance artist Raphael and the kings of Italy. Then, stroll through Piazza della Minerva and Largo di Torre Argentina, where ancient history comes to life. The tour continues to the charming Piazza Mattei and Via del Portico d'Ottavia, the heart of the Jewish Ghetto, before concluding in front of the imposing Portico of Octavia, a symbol of the past and cultural heritage of this community in Rome.

Where this sits in Rome
Rome is about 33 min by road from Rome Fiumicino Airport. Three thousand years stacked on top of each other, still busy being a capital. Stay central and walk — the Forum, the Pantheon and a dozen churches worth the detour are closer together than the map suggests, and the city rewards wandering more than ticking off.
