Excellent and delicious!
David_G, June 2023
Amazing time with Fedi as our guide. The food was delicious and we learned so much along the way! We definitely recommend this excursion.
Foods of Rome!
Timothy_M, June 2023
We had such a good time. There was so much food and it was delish. There could have been mortadella, but that is just me. :) From Pasta to the Jewish Arancini, it was all wonderful. Then of course, to end the evening with gelato was the best. We meet so many fun people on these small tours. We now have new friends in California and South Carolina. Thanks for a great evening. Ciao.
Tried some new things
Andrew_R, June 2023
This tour gave us the chance to try a few foods & restaurants we wouldn’t have tried on our own. The family run deli had fresh bufala mozzarella to try. We couldn’t help but buy extra. The Jewish square gave us the chance to try the fried artichoke and fried rice ball. The gelato was top notch too.
Lisa Was Fabulous!
Carol_M, June 2023
Lisa definitely made this walking food tour a phenomenal experience for our small group of 6. We visited 5 different places and truly felt that we had a wonderful overall view (and taste) of everything Italian. I especially liked that we were exposed to small, family run establishments where Lisa was obviously well known and respected by the proprietors. You definitely want to go hungry and IMO will not need dinner after - we had plenty of apertivos, pizza, pasta, wine and gelato. I loved walking through all these sections and getting the history and current take on each of the areas we visited. This food tour was a great value and we loved the time slot (we chose 4:40pm, finished up about 8:45). Lisa was a knowledgeable, friendly and engaging guide, obviously proud of her Roman roots and willing to share tips and answer all questions. Still hope to get some of the recipes we discussed and experienced!
Great Intro to Roman Food
Seena_S, June 2023
We took this tour on the first morning of a 10 day visit in Rome. Besides being a great tour, it gave us an introduction to a few neighborhoods, so we accomplished two goals together. Maria was a terrific tour guide. She exudes passion for her city and the great food to enjoy. In addition to the six or so restaurants/shops we visited (and ate in), she explained some of the history, including tumblestones (unknown to me and my husband). We loved visiting the wide variety of places she chose, especially Roscio's for pizza. This was THE best pizza I've eaten. This appears to be a walk-in deli where you order from the counter. They have about 10 or so varieties, piled high with ingredients, in a rectangular shape. You tell them how wide a slice, providing an opportunity to taste several offerings, charging by weight. They have a small restaurant nearby and when we tried to make reservations, there were none available for 6 weeks. We visited a cheese shop, and a gelato store, as well as a restaurant stop for two types of pasta, and fried artichokes. Do NOT eat before you take this tour. You will be sated, with lots of food and many different tastes and information on each of the dishes.

Great food, culture and history tour with Anastasia!
coglianj, June 2023
We enjoyed the tour with great food at each stop accompanied by interesting facts and stories. We won’t be cutting our spaghetti (it’s bad luck)! or twirling it on a spoon. And we will look for gelato in covered bins with no more than a dozen flavors to enjoy the best gelato.
Response from Host, June 2023
Thank you :) it is amazing to see how different are food habits once in Italy, that's true. Happy you loved the tour

Chiara was such a great...
Lena_V, May 2023
Chiara was such a great guide, funny, knowledgeable and patient (we were a group of six who landed into Rome that morning). It was such a great experience to hear the history of the neighborhoods and the food was incredible.

An enjoyable Rome Food Experience
Frank_B, May 2023
Ciara was an excellent guide. We chose this tour because of the areas we would visit. She added information about the history and culture of each area. At each stop, she described the various foods served and their place in Roman culture. From our perspective, we sampled dishes (like the fried artichokes) we probably would never have tried. This was the perfect beginning for us to let go and try new foods.
Response from Host, June 2023
Thank you Frank has been lovely meeting you. Cheers
Highly Recommended Wonderful Tour
Logan_P, May 2023

A wonderful wander around three of Rome’ foodie districts
travel, May 2023
We had a great time wandering around the three districts of Trastevere, the Jewish Qtr and Campo di’Fiori. We learnt about food, wine and the history of these three areas. Our wonderful guide Mariela was full of local knowledge about the food we were enjoying.
Response from Host, June 2023
Many many thanks for joining us, come back soon
Do not miss
Benjamin_L, May 2023
An excellent tour - weaving highlights of the different neighborhood, insights into Italian culture. A curated sampling of real Roman food and how it was prepared. The small group made it personal and intimate.

Outstanding tour, outstanding guide
John_K, May 2023
Holy smokes this was an outstanding tour and our guide was great. We learned so much - our Guide’s English skills were excellent and she very nicely shared her knowledge - and the food / restaurants selected by the tour were outstanding. If we could rate this a 5+ we would.
Response from Host, June 2023
Thank you John, this is lovely really. Your 5+ will stay in our hearts since is the best award for us :)
