This is a journey inside the Roman kitchen—discovering the delicacies, the diet and the cultural dos and don’ts.

  • Make your night out in the Eternal City one to remember
  • Expect unique storytelling and scandalous history
  • A safe, fun space to meet like-minded travellers

Tour Description

One of the best ways to meet new people in the city is to grab a drink together. Solo or with a group, long-stay or short – Tipsy Tour Rome is for you!

This isn’t your typical bar crawl…

Our unique night-time experience combines the best elements of travel: discovering new places, experiencing new things, and meeting new people. Tipsy Tour Rome is the perfect opportunity for travellers to get familiar with Rome’s sights, stories and signature drinks in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere with fun local hosts.

The Tipsy Tour…

We’ll start at Piazza Madonna dei Monti. This is where we’ll all start to get to know each other, so expect a warm Italian welcome – aka, a great glass of wine. Drink like the locals, take in the sights, and enjoy the delicious flavours that make Italian food some of the best in the world.

As we head onto the Tipsy Tour’s first stop, the spotlight will be on Carpano Classico. We’ve got some stories about this venerable vermouth! Unravel the history of the man who made it – Antonio Benedetto Carpano – back in 1786 whilst sharing some sips with your newfound friends.

Then, we’ll make our way to Monti. An uber-trendy district filled with quirky bars and cobblestoned streets, there’s plenty to unpack here. In ancient times, Monti was known as the Suburra, essentially the red-light district of Ancient Rome and a dangerous place to be after dark. Drinks and scandalous suburra stories? Yes, please.

Our final stop is Rome’s most iconic road: Via Fori Imperiali. The views of the ancient city are best enjoyed on a marble bench by a statue of Julius Caesar with an ice-cold limoncello – trust us. Sip away as your guide tells shocking stories of the power-hungry Roman emperors who once ruled the known world.

At 11 p.m., the experience officially ends, but the night out begins! We will continue drinking with our new friends at Rome’s most popular bars!

Don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience. We promise to make your night in Rome one you’ll never forget!

Book your spot now!

Highlights

  • Traditional Roman drinks in trendy local bars
  • A fun-loving guide and like-minded group of travellers
  • Discover some of the darker, more scandalous stories from Roman history

Piazza Madonna dei Monti

The Tipsy Tour’s first stop at Piazza Madonna dei Monti immerses you in the heart of Roman life. Surrounded by charming cobblestone streets, you’ll savour wine like a local, sharing laughter and stories with your newfound friends.

Carpano Classico

Carpano Classico was created by Antonio Benedetto Carpano, an Italian distiller, in 1786. He skillfully mixed a variety of botanicals to create something beautiful and enduring.

As you enjoy your glass, and you’ve got to hear us out for this – you’ll realise we’re basically doing the same thing. We’re mixing a great group of people to create some Roman magic and an adventure you’ll never forget. See what we did there?

Sippin’ on Spritz

Take part in a truly Italian tradition – an evening spritz (other traditions include terrible driving, excessive hand-waving, and wearing sunglasses even after dark.) We’ll be visiting a bar in the heart of Monti – a trendy, studenty neighbourhood today but the dark underbelly of the capital back in the day – full of brothels, gang hideouts, and home to a certain Julius Caesar.

Limoncello

To you and I, it might be Friday night lemonade, but to the Italians, Limoncello is something more: a sweet, sugary after-dinner digestif. Best enjoyed under Caesar’s statue. It’s what he would have wanted.

As you sip your drink, your guide will wow you with tales of Caesar’s life, death, and raucous affair with Queen Cleopatra (not in that order).

Bars

Where the tipsy tour ends, the night out begins! We’ll finish our itinerary and conveniently find ourselves ideally situated in Rome’s historic centre – ready and raring to take advantage of the Eternal City that never sleeps.
