Walking
From St. Peter's Square, exit through the main entrance of St. Peter's Basilica, facing the square. Once outside, walk straight ahead towards the colonnades. Continue walking along the Via della Conciliazione, which leads away from the Vatican. After about 1.5 kilometers, you will reach a roundabout, continue straight on the same road until you reach the intersection with Via Orazio Giustiniani. Turn left onto Via Orazio Giustiniani, and you will find the Mattatoio at number 4 on your right.
