Highlights

This isn’t a pub crawl, but it’s not a walking tour either; The Rome Tipsy Tour is an award-winning social and cultural experience to discover the Eternal City after dark, and make everlasting memories along the way. The tour begins in Piazza della Madonna dei Monti, where you’ll meet your local guide, who will take you and a group of fellow travellers through Monti, one of Rome’s trendiest neighbourhoods and former red-light district. This is where history and happy hour collide. You'll hear stories featuring the city’s most unsavoury characters, bloody power struggles, and saucy scandals before heading to atmospheric bars to experience the best of Roman nightlife. You’ll taste authentic Italian drinks like local wine, spritz, sambuca, and limoncello, all the while getting to know like-minded travellers. We've even got non-alcoholic beverages for our sober friends who still want to join the fun! Skip a boring walking tour and experience Rome’s vibrant nightlife with a Tipsy Tour.

Itinerary

  1. Monti is one of Rome’s trendiest neighbourhoods but back in the day it was known as a suburra of the city, a red light district rife with drugs, gambling, and sex work galore. This is where your guide will lead you to some of the best bars in the city and tell you fascinating stories you won’t hear on your average walking tour.

    2 h

  2. There are few sights more beautiful than Rome at night, and we’ll walk down this incredible road that divides the Ancient City while admiring the emperor's forums on either side.

    45 min

  3. Towards the end of the tour we’ll pass by Rome’s biggest and most hated building, built to commemorate the unification of Italy in the 1870s.

About Rome

Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.

Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.

Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
