One of the best things I did during my Rome vacation! Our tour guide, Simone was great! We visited 5 different restaurants that introduced us to some of the best food we had in Rome. The tour was not only delicious, it was educational as well. Our tour guide was native to Rome and shared a lot of helpful and interesting information about the food and history of Rome. I would highly recommend booking this tour early in your trip to Rome - it will help to guide your food choices the remainder of your time there.

Luca took us to some interesting places I never knew existed in Rome. This tour not only included food and wine but the history of some of the different neighborhoods we visited. As always, loved learning more about the “Eternal City!”

Glen_G, Sep 2023
Our guide, Ariana, was fantastic and shared good insight during the tour. She made it interesting and fun, and historical sites were well noted. The food stops were just ok and bottled water would've been appreciated.
Wonderful!

Excellent Experience
Chelsea_S, Sep 2023
As people who love to eat, we booked this tour to ensure we were not missing any special foods the city has to offer. It certainly did not disappoint! Our guide was Matteo and he did a great job to mix together learning about the history of the city and the history of the food we were eating. Our tour date was towards the end of August, so it was hot hot hot but I'd 100% want to book this experience again. We started off in Campo de Fiori when the markets were setup which added some bonus tasting experiences. All the foods we tried were amazing and it was a good mix between things we'd expect in Rome and some foods we didn't that were new. If you are looking for a short tour, some food, and a great experience - I highly recommend.
Yum

The tour leader, Arianna, was fantastic! She spoke with enthusiasm and passion. Not only did we learn about the food, she also gave us lots of information on history and traditions and at no point did we feel rushed: she was oatient and good humoured throughout. The food, by the way, was delicious!
