La Mani in Pasta was, we believe, the best meal we ever had (and we’ve had amazing dinners) and are so happy this was our grand finale last night in Italy! The Roman artichokes, octopus and potatoes, cache e Pepe, lobster linguine, and filet topped with white truffles….and our two bottles of brunello were so delicious we didn’t want the night to end! Thank you for the recommendation!
Your series is exceptional. Watching this makes me nostalgic, as I lived across the river on the Largo dei Chiavari. My college classmates and I often walked to Trastevere to see movies in English.
Thanks for the tips! We start our vacay in Rome for 3 nights staying in the Prati neighborhood. Then we meet up with family and we're off to Florence. We have 3 more nights we're saving for Rome or somewhere nearby so flying home will be easier. Any suggestions were we should stay (neighborhood wise)? Also thinking about Ostia Antica for a day trip or overnight.
Trastevere is definitely one of my favorite neighborhoods of Rome. I've been to a large number of them, so that's saying a lot. But the fact that there's so much to do there (not as many touristy things as in the city center), but there's still enough to see and do without getting tired. I was there March 2016 with a group from my university and some of us went to a bar (alcohol served) at around 7pm and had a few shots before going to eat dinner with our group in Trastevere. The bar was absolutely amazing. The bartenders were so nice and all of them spoke perfect English. One of them was Portuguese, which was amazing since I'm half and we connected on that. :) I'll hopefully make my way back to that bar the next time I'm there...if I can remember where it was (all I remember is that it's not far from the basilica).
Thanks for your videos. We watched this one before our trip and visited your church. We took some beautiful pictures that I'd like to add but can't. Trastevere's a great neighborhood!
Stayed there a couple of years ago. One of my best travel memories ever. Great food - great pizza! Baby squash blossoms and anchovy pizza? Are you kidding me? No! Not kidding! One of the most delicious things I've ever stuffed in my face!
Visited Trastevere last week whilst in Rome. One of the locals recommended it for drinking and eating, I wasn't disappointed! The nicest restaurants and the cheapest drinks in Rome, the streets are gorgeous!
Fantastic video, my wife and I are planning to visit Italy in late June/early July 2018 and will seriously look at Trastevere for accomodation (Airbnb). Subscribed !
Our hotel was in Trastevere. It is a beautiful area. Fabrizio’s is an excellent restaurant there. The fried meatballs were amazing! I highly recommend it.
In May, we wandered into Trastevere, having no idea what it was. There are expensive restaurants right next to cheap restaurants. We paid about €8 for a pizza (not a slice), €12 for sea bass, and €2 for a small jug (0.25lt) of wine. Delicious.
I love these videos. I am looking to move to Italy after retirement. Maybe after November, I work in municipal government and this is an election year and my boss is running for governor. I like Trastevere and will be looking there. Also, where can I see your blog
I’ll be there in November. Let me buy you a coffee or a meal. I’m a Catholic Priest in Los Angeles. I could use some recommendations on things to do and see.
I enjoyed watching your video. My family and I recently got back from a 3 week vacation in Europe where we spent time in Rome exploring the sites. It was amazing. We can't wait to go back and see more of the country.- Michelle :)
Wonderfully filmed.and really captures the atmosphere of the place. The original inhabitants were probably the Etruscans, but the demise of Ostia Antica gave Trastevere it's moment in history, a real melting pot.
Originally, the Etruscans lived beyond the Tiber, but after the 3rd century BC Trastevere was inhabited mainly by Jewish immigrants, then by others immigrants from many part of the Empire, because they were not Roman citizens and for this reason they were not allowed to live in Rome City and Trastevere was outside the official boundaries of the city of Rome at the time ... So Trastevere was probably the first ethnic district in the western world!
Hey Marsha. Thanks for the heads up! We are fixing the link. Meanwhile you can see it here: theromanguy.com/italy-travel-blog/best-places-to-eat-in-trastevere/
I’m a preschool teacher and in need of recommendations for an affordable but safe area to stay in. I’m planning my trip a year from now. A girl needs to save and plan...Any suggestions?. I’ll keep watching your videos for tips!
I'm headed to Rome during July. First timer. With family of 5. Kids 18, 12, & 8. Is this a place to recommend?. We want to walk around and take public transportation. We were looking near Termini station, but kind of look sketchy.
Is Rome tourist spots like the Vatican, Rome city museums open on Saturday, Sunday. I want to book the tour. Checking if I must visit Venice on weekend and Rome during the weekday.
My wife and I will be going next year and will have 7 nights in Rome. There are so many amazing AirBNB options in Trastevere, is it a good place for first time visitors to stay? We dont mind walking at all and typically love being a little out of the way of all the main attractions.
Phil T we are planning the same thing, how did you like Trastevere? Did you walk towards city center? Or did you take bus, taxi etc? How was it? Thanks in advance
Le Mani In Pasta looks lovely, but look at the prices- I can't and won't eat a bowl of pasta for over 30 euros. Restaurants in Italian cities are absurdly expensive- I have to live on the cheapest food going. I wish I could afford restaurants like this.
02:30 Very nice. However, the Madonna and Child are depicted in a mosaic, not a fresco. A fresco, however, can be seen ABOVE this mosaic, though it is very faded.
Why is it a shame? The word Grafitti has Latin roots. There has been Grafitti in Rome since Ancient times. Just because one 21st person doesn’t like it, it should be a shame? Get over it.
La Mani in Pasta was, we believe, the best meal we ever had (and we’ve had amazing dinners) and are so happy this was our grand finale last night in Italy! The Roman artichokes, octopus and potatoes, cache e Pepe, lobster linguine, and filet topped with white truffles….and our two bottles of brunello were so delicious we didn’t want the night to end!

Love Trastevere! I lived there while I studied abroad and would love to go back.
JCU?
Allora ti aspettiamo :)
ain't you met any thieves there?
Loved staying in this neighborhood. Thanks for the info! We stayed at the Unahotel Trastevere and would definitely recommend it.
Watching this makes me so excited for my visit in a couple weeks. Thank you.
Have fun!
After seeing this video I am definitely adding Trastevere to our itinerary! We have 5 nights in Rome so at least 1 day can be there.

You my dear were the MOST informative from all the videos I watched! Thank you!
Great video. Have several tours booked with The Roman Guy and can't wait!
Thanks for your videos. We watched this one before our trip and visited your church. We took some beautiful pictures that I'd like to add but can't. Trastevere's a great neighborhood!

Rome is so beautiful! I wish one day i could walk on the street...
Love all these videos you guys create. So helpful and interesting. Well done!
I'm so envious of the author of this video for living thers and going to these fab restaurants on a regular basis.
I'm feeling hungry now as well.
We had the pleasure of discovering Trastevere last spring. We will be back next spring to really get to know it! Great video thank you.
Stayed there a couple of years ago. One of my best travel memories ever. Great food - great pizza! Baby squash blossoms and anchovy pizza? Are you kidding me? No! Not kidding! One of the most delicious things I've ever stuffed in my face!
Trastevere looks amazing! I"ll be checking it out in late June! Thanks for all the tips!

Any time!
Your videos are very helpful, really. Thanks and more power!
Trastevere seems like a place I would love, we go to Rome on Thursday and will stay outside the Vatican 20 min walk from there :)
Trastevere is a beautiful place, food there is like the best ever
We've been to Trastevere several times and this is one of the best videos I've seen at capturing its charm.
Visited Trastevere last week whilst in Rome. One of the locals recommended it for drinking and eating, I wasn't disappointed! The nicest restaurants and the cheapest drinks in Rome, the streets are gorgeous!

Will be going to Trastevere in one month, wonderful tips- made me very excited to go! Thanks!

Thanks for the info. We had gone to Rome in 2017 and it was the best vacation. Please don’t tell my Greek relatives I said that

Day 3 of Rome visit!

I would love to check out your blog, but I keep getting an error message saying dynamic link not found.

love your videos!
You've inspired me to go visit!
Trastevere è un quartiere molto vivace, un'infinità di locali dove bere un aperitivo o cenare. Unico svantaggio, il parcheggio carente.
I’m a preschool teacher and in need of recommendations for an affordable but safe area to stay in. I’m planning my trip a year from now. A girl needs to save and plan...Any suggestions?.
I’ll keep watching your videos for tips!
How do I make reservations at le maní in pasta? I cannot find where to go to make reservation. Is it by phone only? Please advice. Thank you
Give them a call
I live in Via del Battista (Via del Moro)
Hi! On google maps it says that it takes 40 minutes to walk beetween Trastevere to Vatican City. How come you only have 20 minutes?
It depend on where in Trastevere

Where do you drink man? I'll be there tomorrow ;)
2:33 ... those are actually mosaics not frescoes. Ciao !
Il rione più bello di Roma!
They talk a little fast, but good information . I hope to use their tips next month on my trip.
Ok so where can a solo traveler stay in Trastevere that you can recommend?
Here you go: theromanguy.com/italy-travel-blog/rome/where-to-stay-in-rome-this-year/
Did the Foodie tour in October, this video was much better than the tour. Food was interesting at only a few of the stops.
Being Welsh I felt so at home there
. A neighborhood with a big , less friendly, neighbour😂 lovely place, lovely people
.
Roma is about 5 mil people
Wow! So helpful.
Great Video! My wife and I are going in May and are going to stay in Trastevere. What hotel should we stay at?
Check out Window on Rome. Great location and fabulous friendly hosts.
Is it true that the Fish Market Restaurant is closed?
I think u meant "brakes" 👍😉
indeed...
Do you happen to know any legends/tales/myths about trastevere??
Le Mani In Pasta looks lovely, but look at the prices- I can't and won't eat a bowl of pasta for over 30 euros. Restaurants in Italian cities are absurdly expensive- I have to live on the cheapest food going. I wish I could afford restaurants like this.
Thanks for your helpful suggestions, Wayne.
Shouldn't it be "Brakes," not "Breaks"?
this man rich
how can you not mention Bar San Callisto!? the heart of Trastevere? Osteria Der belli!? best fish at best price in Trastevere.......
✌
02:30 Very nice. However, the Madonna and Child are depicted in a mosaic, not a fresco. A fresco, however, can be seen ABOVE this mosaic, though it is very faded.
2022 update?
Coming soon. Adding it to our new neighborhood series. Thanks
I think you are a handsome roman 😍
Non credo che sia romano lui, ma è bravo!
Just wander the streets and discover it for yourselves.
Thanks for checking out our 8 year old video. We have a new version of this guide out now. Cheers and Happy Travels.
Transtevere is all tagged. And it doesn’t take 10-15 to colosseum. Don’t lie.
Miguel R how long does it take? By foot and by bus and taxi?
Fantastic place,Such a shame it’s Covered in Graffiti and I mean COVERED !!!!
Why is it a shame? The word Grafitti has Latin roots. There has been Grafitti in Rome since Ancient times. Just because one 21st person doesn’t like it, it should be a shame? Get over it.
all expensive tho?
Organic = natural. Conventional = unnatural or the what’s sold in the USA
Sorry but Rome is not a small town, is the biggest city in Europe After London. Not having skyscrapers does not mean small.
London is not in Europe. The historical core of Rome, which is where most people do their sightseeing, is relatively small.
