Great experience. Greta...

Great experience. Greta was amazing. She did a phenomenal job in not only providing information on the deserts but also the history of them and the area. We were able to try things we wouldn’t have normally tried and experience exceptional food/drink. Would highly recommend.

Amazing tour!

Greta was a fantastic guide! Very knowledgeable and personable. We loved all of the desserts & learning more about them while also learning about Rome. This is the first tour we’re doing of the trip and will be tough to top - can’t recommend it enough!

The dessert tour was...

The dessert tour was great in that it was not only about having desserts but also a walking tour of some of the main attractions in Rome. Our tour guide Fabrizia was so good. She explained very clearly and was accomodating to any extra time needed at some spots.Highly recommended

Brilliant, unusual tour

Our guide, Alessia, met us a few minutes early (always nice) at our meeting point. We were the only people on the tour (2 of us), so it felt like a private tour (and we were glad it wasn’t cancelled). We visited several cake and dessert shops and cafes, and were told a little about the owners backgrounds, where they came from etc. On the way, we saw some beautiful churches, and “off the beaten track” sights that we would never have seen, if we hadn’t done the tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and even walked some of the way back from the last stop with us, which was kind as it was dark by then, and we were afraid of getting lost! We would recommend this tour to anyone with a sweet tooth, who wants to see a different and interesting side to Rome. Thank you Alessia!
