Excellent evening in Trastevere

This is the second time we’ve done this tour in Trastevere with Francesca. She is funny, knowledgeable and does a great job. The food has been good both times and the tour is a fun change of pace from some of the other popular things to doing Rome. We’d highly recommend it!!

Nice alternative to busy major attractions

Tiziano was such a warm pleasant guide, very informative. It was a nice way to tour Trastevere have a few bites on the way with a background of the culture and learn things from a local that you wouldn’t get from any other media.

Great Tour guide , subpar food

The guide was wonderful, the location was great but since it was a food tour and for the money spent, the food was sub par. We had an appetizer of some cold cuts and very small pizza square , a fried rice ball, two small squares of pizza , a tiny pastry and a small gelato. I hope the tour operator did not pay a lot for the food because we have done food tours in thailand, vietnam, Columbia, Spain, Morrocco and Fiji and the quality and quantity was much better. I forgot, a shot glass of beer. In Thailand we sat down as a whole group and had a fantastic meal. Not just a few very small bites. For $55 per person and 10 people the company could have done much better.

Fantastic evening food tour in Trastevere

We loved this small-group food tour in Trastevere – it was one of the highlights of our time in Rome. We sampled a nice variety of local specialties, including pizza, pastries, cheeses, Italian salami, and gelato. We also learned about the history of the Roman fountains and even got a short lesson on how to use them properly, which was a fun local touch. Our guide, Marco, really made the tour special. He was funny, pleasant, and very attentive to everyone in the group. He shared interesting bits of history about the area, taught us some Italian, and even explained how to spot authentic Roman food and real gelato versus the more touristy places. It was clear he truly enjoys sharing his country and its cuisine with visitors. The only downside was on our side: we booked this tour just a few hours after an afternoon walking tour, so we were very tired by the evening. However, Marco’s energy and humor kept us going and made the experience thoroughly enjoyable. Overall, this tour is a wonderful way to discover Roman street food and get to know Trastevere. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, tasty, and authentic experience in Rome.
