Top food tour with the best delicious Roman specialties.

We had a great tour with Alessia; as a family, we were able to discover little hotspots that we probably would never have found without the tour. So, thank you very much for the wonderful experience!

Sensational food tour in Trastevere.

One of the best tours I have done, a small (super) group, and our guide Mauro was great... highly recommended.

Fantastic Trastevere Food Tour

Luca was an awesome host and guide of this 3-hour tour. There were only 3 of us on this particular tour so it was really like hiring a personal guide! We traveled the narrow streets of Trastevere and sampled a wonderful variety of delicious Roman specialties. Luca's knowledge of the history of the area and his easy-going manner made this comfortably-paced tour one of the best we've done. He has great relationships with the vendors and you can tell Luca really loves what he does.

A perfect three-hour tour of great Roman food, enriched with stories from Barbara, who talks about the Trastevere district through the lens of her favorite spots. The places we visited for food are authentic, often without signs and impossible for a tourist to find on their own. Barbara, thank you and congratulations!

Recommended!

We were very satisfied. We were shown around by local Allesia to some hidden gems, people who run a family business and may often be overlooked by tourists. Have a nice walk, recommended!

Great experience with Carla (eating, wandering & happy teenager!)

This was a great experience to kickoff our visit to Rome. We loved wandering the streets and getting a sense of a neighbourhood and learning about the city and its special spots. Carla was outstanding. She shared history, insights, culinary background on our stops and all along the way. She answered our questions and kept our teenaged son highly engaged (!). This set us up for the rest of the week for what we wanted to try and (in our own minds) we were a little closer to eating like locals. Highly recommend and huge kudos to Carla!
