We will visit one of the biggest markets in Italy. Walk through its over 200 stalls and taste a variety of typical Italian products made by local farmers.
Prati is an elegant district of Rome with residential buildings, high-quality restaurants and monuments.
Borgo is another historic neighborhood located between the banks of the River Tiber and the Vatican City. Here you will find some iconic attractions, including Castel Sant’Angelo.
The tour will continue with a walk along the Vatican walls. Hear about the history and architecture of this impressive construction and see some interesting landmarks, such as Porta Sant ’Anna and Porta Angelica, that was the main access route for the pilgrims arriving to Rome.
It is an elevated passage that links the Vatican City with the Castel Sant'Angelo, built in 1277 by Pope Nicholas III and that served as an escape route for Popes in danger. A real hidden gem of the Eternal City.

10/10 recommend. So much delicious food to experience. The walking tour was amazing, and the conversation was very pleasant. Wine was phenomenal.
Had a really nice tour in Prati with Bruno! He told us so much and we tried really nice food and wine in the market en in shops!
This tour was beyond our expectations. We didn’t know what to expect with such a low price to go. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable as well as friendly. We learned so much local information Amit Italy through him!
Gabriel was a fantastic tour guide. He spoke fantastic English, was very knowledgeable and taught us so much about Rome and Italy which we didn’t know about! The tour itself was very interesting, we loved trying all the local delicacies and it was excellent value for money - we tried much more than we expected! I would highly recommend this experience, especially if you would like to explore and learn more about the history and culture of Rome as well as the main wood and wine tasting. Overall we were very pleased :)
We enjoyed our walk around the marketplace near the Vatican and tasted many foods and wine. Gabriele and Elisa explained the histories of each as we sampled various wine, Roman pizzas, meats, cheeses, olives, strawberries, cherries, and pastries from The Pope’s favorite pastry shop. It was a fun afternoon!
Very lovely and motivated guides. We had a great tour with a lot of food and drinks and learned a lot about Roma.
