Autumn is one of the best times to visit Rome. The climate is mild, the crowds are bearable, and the food… well, the food is always fabulous. But as far as spooky festivities go, you might find yourself in for a shock – because Halloween in Rome is not what you might expect.
Halloween is not an Italian tradition per se. But it’s becoming more popular each year, especially with kids and younger generations. Spend a Halloween afternoon in any Italian city and you’ll see trick-and-treating kids in Halloween costumes, running around streets and squares and seeking out candy from restaurants and residences.
Stay out a little later, once the trick-and-treaters (“dolcetto o scherzetto” as they say in Italy) have gone to bed, and you might see a smattering of spookily-clad twenty and thirty-somethings heading out to Halloween parties at their favourite bars or nightclubs.
But many traditions we associate with Halloween, like Jack-o’-lanterns and bonfires, are alien to Italians, and replicating either will raise eyebrows or get you arrested. Many Italian cinemas will screen subtitled horror films to coincide with the Halloween season. But this is mainly because of the influence of Hollywood, not because of any deep-rooted Italian tradition.
Italians do celebrate the Christian holiday of All Saints Day on November 1st. And since most people don’t have to get up early for work the next day, a fair few go out on the night of October 31st. Catholics also observe All Souls Day on November 2nd, especially in South America. But the only European country to celebrate it as a public holiday is, curiously, Lithuania.
According to one compelling theory, All Saints Day (also known as All Hallows’ Day) represents the Christianisation of the ancient Roman Lemuria festival. The Romans would celebrate the Lemuria every year to exorcise the malevolent souls of the dead from their homes. This may have been inspired by the earlier Remuria festival, instituted by Rome’s first king Romulus in an attempt to appease the angry spirit of his slain twin Remus.

If you’re lucky enough to be in Rome for Halloween, here are some ideas to add some spook to your itinerary.
Situated on the Via Veneto, not far from the Spanish Steps, the Convent of the Capuchin Monks is home to one of the most disturbing displays in Rome: a crypt decorated with the bones of its former friars. Warning: this place is not for the faint-hearted. Within the six rooms running along its 30-metre corridor, you’ll find the osseous remains of more than 3,700 deceased monks — a sinister scene that is bound to stay with you.
The museum and crypt are open daily from 10 am - 7 pm. Tickets cost €10 for adults — with reduced-price tickets (€6.50) available for children, students under 25, people over 65, and clerics — and can be purchased online or directly at the convent.
Rome after dark is a ghosting hotspot — and we’re not talking about the kind that happened to you on Tinder 👀 Visit the Eternal City’s most paranormal places and hear terrifying tales of ghosts, executions, and murders most foul.

Nothing is scarier than the prospect of drinking alone on a night out in Rome. Join a Tipsy Tour through the historic centre and try traditional Italian drinks with a group of fun, like-minded travellers.
After the tour, check out the Roman nightlife, and get down and ghastly with your ghoul squad.
Did you know that Rome is surrounded by an underground network of burial grounds, which housed Rome’s dead for several centuries? Experts believe that at least 40 catacombs run underground outside Rome’s city walls, only a few of which have been discovered. And visiting any of them on a guided tour is a ghastly experience worthy of Halloween in Rome.
The best place to visit Rome’s catacombs is on the Appian Way (Via Appia). Here, on this ancient consular road running southeast of the city, you’ll find the entrances to the Catacombs of Saint Callixtus, the Catacombs of Saint Sebastian, and the Catacombs of Domitilla.

Because nothing is scarier than driving around Rome 💀
But seriously. Don’t rent a car. But do check out our guide to getting around Rome.
Nothing terrifies Italians like pineapple on a pizza or cream in a carbonara. (Except perhaps for gun crime, but that’s not really a big thing here). Stop committing crimes against Italian cuisine by joining an immersive and indulgent cooking class in Rome. Create two Italian classics on our Pasta & Tiramisù Cooking Class or get tipsy in the kitchen on our unique Spritz & Spaghetti Cooking Class — both right in the heart of Rome.

Explore the wonders of the Eternal City on our best of Rome walking tour. As you get your bearings around Rome’s cobbled historic centre, your expert storyteller will bring Rome’s most must-see sites to life, including the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, and Piazza Navona. Take photos, make memories, and most importantly, get the most out of your time in the Italian capital!
Your private guide will share the city’s secrets and narrate its story in a way that will make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time – from explaining how the stunningly intricate churches and palaces were erected, to how the grand fountains were used to channel water throughout the city.
We will start at Trajan’s Column, which portrays the bloody victory of the emperor during the Dacian wars in Eastern Europe. We’ll then head to the Piazza Venezia, the crossroads between the ancient city and the modern capital and one of the most scenic squares in Italy!
After taking a moment to marvel at the imposing Altar of the Fatherland, we’ll make our way to the iconic Trevi Fountain. Toss a coin into the fountain, spend a moment soaking in its sounds and scenery (metaphorically, not literally!), and uncover the fascinating stories behind the fountain’s statues and symbols.
After discovering the incredible frescoes within the church of Sant Ignazio, we’ll make our way to the Pantheon where the spectacle of the 2000-year-old dome will blow you away. Marvel at one of the best-preserved buildings of the ancient world, hear the story behind the man who built it, and discover the shocking architectural secret behind how the dome is (or isn’t) supported!
Your private walking tour of Rome finishes at Piazza Navona. The square is situated near some of Rome’s best and most vibrant bars and restaurants and your guide will be happy to recommend where to go.
This tour is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. You can expect this memorable experience to last about two hours, which leaves you with more than enough time to explore the city beyond.
Channel your inner-Maximus as you step out onto the Colosseum Arena floor and access this recently reopened area of the world famous amphitheatre. Then, explore the rest of the heart of ancient Rome, with a friendly, expert guide and a small group of like-minded travellers!
Unlike regular tours of the Colosseum, our Colosseum Arena Tour gets you straight inside the ancient amphitheatre and out onto the arena floor through the Gladiator’s Gate. This is the route the gladiators themselves took almost 2,000 years ago. Imagine the moment they left the gates, and were greeted by the cheers and jeers of 50,000 bloodthirsty spectators.
Your expert guide will transport you back in time to the height of the Roman Empire when the Colosseum was constructed. These were times when Rome was ruled by all-powerful emperors (sometimes wise, sometimes wacky), the city was flooded with exotic riches from around the world, and the Colosseum acted as the city’s main stage for showing off the animals and people that Rome had conquered and captured.
After a short 30-minute break, we’ll head off on the next part of the tour…
Next, we’ll climb the Palatine Hill, where the ancient city was founded. The Palatine Hill is a real archaeological wonder, home to settlements from the Iron Age to the 16th century. Gaze upon such sites as the Hut of Romulus, Rome’s legendary founder, and the Imperial Palace, where the emperors in their family engaged in ruling, politicking, and scheming. Get your camera at the ready – you really can’t beat these views!
The final destination on our Colosseum Arena Tour is the Roman Forum. As the beating heart of ancient Rome, the Roman Forum was once a bustling hub of markets, law courts, temples, and more. It was here that Julius Caesar was cremated, where victorious triumphs paraded with the spoils of Roman conquests, here where two disgraced emperors were murdered in 69 AD, and here where Cicero delivered the speeches that shaped western culture for centuries.
When our tour is over, feel free to stay and explore the Roman Forum at your own pace.

Join us on a journey through Roman history on our immersive Rome by Night Walking Tour. Your expert guide will share the city’s secrets, history, and fascinating tales—from antiquity through to the modern day, and at a pace to suit you.
Our tour starts in Rome’s most picturesque square, Piazza Navona, where the ancient Romans used to watch athletic contests (agones). Today’s piazza sits above the ancient stadium and boasts Gian Lorenzo Bernini‘s stunning Fountain of the Four Rivers as its centrepiece.
A five-minute walk from Piazza Navona takes us to the world-famous Pantheon. Constructed more than two-thousand years ago by the eccentric emperor Hadrian, the Pantheon was consecrated as a monument to all the pagan gods (pan theos, in Greek meaning all the gods). This second-century temple is one of the best-preserved monuments in the Roman Empire and its unreinforced concrete dome still perplexes architects.
Our next stop is the iconic Trevi Fountain. Immortalised by Anita Ekberg wading through its water in Federico Fellini’s iconic film La Dolce Vita, the Trevi Fountain one of the most romantic spots in the Eternal City. Snap your photos of the monument in the moonlight, listen to your guide decipher its symbols, and toss a coin over your shoulder to guarantee your return to Rome.
We emerge from Rome’s winding backstreets onto Piazza Venezia. Stretching from the foot of the Capitoline Hill, against the backdrop of the Altar of the Fatherland, Piazza Venezia is Rome’s most recognisable square, and a repository of history involving figures from Napoleon to Mussolini.
Your guide will lead you down the Via dei Fori Imperiali, the boulevard that cuts through ancient Rome, past Trajan’s Column and alongside the forums of Trajan, Augustus and Nerva. Your guide will feed your curiosity and nourish you with knowledge about ancient Rome and its empire as you make your way towards the most famous monument of all: the Colosseum.
The Colosseum is one of the most awe-inspiring attractions that has survived from antiquity. As a colossal feat of architecture and engineering, its form has been replicated throughout the ages, manifested in stadiums and sports venues around the world. But while its form is familiar to us, the spectacles it accommodated are entirely alien, and remind us of the violent nature of Roman culture.
Group sizes are 15 people maximum.

You’ll meet your guide and group at Piazza Madonna dei Monti, where we’ll break the ice with a warm Italian welcome – aka, a refreshing glass of local wine. After saying cheers—salute—we’ll head into Monti, an uber-trendy district filled with quirky bars and cobblestoned streets, and plenty to unpack. In ancient Rome, Monti was known as a suburra – the red-light district of Rome where prostitutes plied their trade and gangsters once roamed. As we wander through the cobblestone streets your guide will tell you scandalous stories of sex and bloodshed that you won’t hear on your typical walking tour.
After so much scandal, you’ll surely need a drink. So at our first stop on the Rome Tipsy Tour you’ll get an extra stiff one. The spotlight will be on Carpano Classico a venerable vermouth with a curious story!
