WHAT YOU VISIT
Foodie's Walking Tour of Civitavecchia
After a short shuttle ride, you'll disembark at Michelangelo's Fortress, built in the 16th century to protect the city from pirate attacks. Follow your guide along the picturesque promenade to the Jewish Ghetto, a hidden gem dating back to the 16th century, considered to be the oldest Jewish community in Europe. From here you'll walk into the historic heart of the Ghetto and into the cobbled streets of Piazza Leandra where you'll find the Church of the Orazione and the Church of the Star, famous for Civitavecchia's religious rites during the Easter Week. Finally, you'll walk through the old Gate of the 9th century walls to Piazza Aurelio Saffi, home to the Civitavecchia's medieval buildings and one of its oldest churches.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITIES
Snap, post and let the world see that perfect food shot!

SNACKS
During the walking tour you'll make three stops to taste a slice of pizza, a traditional Roman pastry filled with whipped cream called a "maritozzo," and a fried fish dish accompanied by a glass of wine.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
As you walk past the fountains, plazas, shops and cafes of the Jewish Ghetto, it's interesting to note that the name derives from the presence of the buildings earmarked for Jewish families, but Jewish people never lived there because the houses were occupied by families of fishermen.
