Explore the hidden side of Rome on a walking tour that blends dark history, ghostly legends, and local flavors. Meet your guide at the Portico d’Ottavia, by the ruins under the sign "Hostaria" in the heart of the Jewish Quarter, where stories of mysticism, Kabbalah, and the legend of the Golem set the tone.
Enjoy a stop for authentic Roman pizza before continuing to the Passetto del Biscione, a frescoed corridor once used for escapes and secret encounters, and learn the tale of the city’s “Madonnelle.” Visit Campo de’ Fiori to face the statue of Giordano Bruno, the heretic burned alive, then step inside the baroque church of Santa Maria dell’Orazione e Morte, adorned with skulls and bones.
On Via Giulia, hear about Giulia Tofana, the poisoner who created “Aqua Tofana,” and pass through the Arco dei Banchi, a hidden passage linked to Vatican intrigues. Conclude with wine and local sweet biscuits before the chilling story of Mastro Titta at Ponte Sant’Angelo.

The Portico of Octavia
The Portico d’Ottavia is one of the most atmospheric sites in Rome, standing in the heart of the Jewish Ghetto. Once part of an ancient Roman complex built by Emperor Augustus for his sister Octavia, today it whispers with centuries of history, faith, and myth. Here, your guide will reveal the mystical traditions of Kabbalah and the symbolic power of the number 7 in Roman lore, along with eerie tales that have been passed down through generations. Among these is the story of the Golem, a creature said to have been created to protect the Jewish community during times of persecution. The portico, illuminated by soft evening light, becomes the perfect setting to explore the intersection of ancient ruins, medieval mysticism, and ghostly legends. You’ll feel how Rome’s visible history blends with hidden layers of superstition and spirituality, making this stop not only historically rich but also hauntingly evocative.
Roman Ghetto
The Jewish Ghetto is one of Rome’s most atmospheric districts, rich with history and legends. Created in the 16th century, it preserved traditions, rituals, and stories that still echo today. Here you’ll discover the influence of Kabbalah, the mystical symbolism of the number 7, and haunting tales like the ghost of Berenice. By day it feels like a lively neighborhood with kosher bakeries and narrow lanes, but at dusk the Ghetto reveals its darker side—where faith, myth, and ghostly presences blend into an unforgettable atmosphere.

Dark History with Arianna was an evening well spent in Rome!!

5.00Arianna, with 2 n's was incredible! Her passion for dark history was contagious. I learned more about italian history with her than anywhere else. Dark history tour was the best idea to do on our first night in Rome. We can now move through the city with the knowledge she instilled for a much more enriched stay in Rome. She makes me want to go home and read more about the history she informed us about. Why streets have gates, the meaning behind the squares, the architecture of the buildings and why sone are curved. We were completely submerged in italian culture. Teaching us how to properly order a slice of pizza. I had the best potato slice. We had an intimate group and it would have been perfect had we all planned for a severely cold evening. However we mustard through and had a delicious cup of hot coco versus gelato! Loved her compassion as she waited for us to stop at the farmacia for a brief second. Thank you again Arianna, glad to have had you as our guide!!
Good tour

4.00Danielle was the perfect guide. An archeologist so very knowledgeable and very enthusiastic. The tasting aspects (pizza, wine and panecotta were first-rate. The chance to walk around the area by the Tiber at night was magical. The stories were a bit thin ( except for the Jewish quarter segment). Overall definitely worth it. I would recommend
Dark Secrets is an great evening

5.00This was a fun way to explore Rome neighborhoods at night. Was completely different experience than day tour and Costanza was very knowledgeable and gave unique stories i had not heard before. A tasty bite mid way with additional snack and beverage at the end with a view of Casa de St Angeles. Would recommend as a delightful way to stroll thru an evening in Rome!
