Rome Night Tipsy Tour & Bar Crawl with Forbidden History
Description
This isn’t a pub crawl, but it’s not a walking tour either; The Rome Tipsy Tour is an award-winning social and cultural experience to discover the Eternal City after dark, and make everlasting memories along the way. The tour begins in Piazza della Madonna dei Monti, where you’ll meet your local guide, who will take you and a group of fellow travellers through Monti, one of Rome’s trendiest neighbourhoods and former red-light district. This is where history and happy hour collide. You'll hear stories featuring the city’s most unsavoury characters, bloody power struggles, and saucy scandals before heading to atmospheric bars to experience the best of Roman nightlife. You’ll taste authentic Italian drinks like local wine, spritz, sambuca, and limoncello, all the while getting to know like-minded travellers. We've even got non-alcoholic beverages for our sober friends who still want to join the fun! Skip a boring walking tour and experience Rome’s vibrant nightlife with a Tipsy Tour.

Itinerary
Monti is one of Rome’s trendiest neighbourhoods but back in the day it was known as a suburra of the city, a red light district rife with drugs, gambling, and sex work galore. This is where your guide will lead you to some of the best bars in the city and tell you fascinating stories you won’t hear on your average walking tour.
There are few sights more beautiful than Rome at night, and we’ll walk down this incredible road that divides the Ancient City while admiring the emperor's forums on either side.
Towards the end of the tour we’ll pass by Rome’s biggest and most hated building, built to commemorate the unification of Italy in the 1870s.

We went with three couples and had a great time. Our guide, Ezgi, was amazing. She knew the coolest spots and kept the entire experience special. Don't be afraid of the karaoke bit they send you in the text messages, I was a bit worried but it was just something happening at the last bar and was completely optional. It ended up being a highlight of the night! Highly recommended, this was the most fun we had in Rome.
Mary was so sweet! Got the group talking and mingling right away. I was nervous as a solo traveler, but had an amazing time meeting new people my first night in Rome. Thank you Tipsy Tours!
Michelle absolutely MADE our Tipsy Bar Crawl and Forbidden History tour incredible from start to finish. Her energy, humor, and storytelling were next-level—you can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in every moment. She had the perfect balance of fun and knowledge, mixing fascinating (and sometimes wild!) historical details with just the right amount of personality and flair. We weren’t just walking from bar to bar—we were completely immersed in the stories behind the city. Michelle also made everyone feel included and comfortable right away. She kept the group engaged, laughing, and moving smoothly throughout the night. Plus, her recommendations at each stop were spot-on! If you’re even thinking about doing this tour, do yourself a favor and hope you get Michelle. She turns a fun night out into something truly memorable.
Anna was fantastic and a real fun guide. Highly recommend this tour as you learn all the back streets of Rome, with a lot of fun.

The host tries to force social interaction between all guests by assigning seats at each pub and dictating who you sit next to. Also, one predetermined drink is provided at each pub.. and there is no other options
