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.

We loved this tour! ...

We loved this tour! Marco was our guide and he did a great job. He was funny and went at a nice, relaxing pace. He led us to five places around Trastevere to sample the local food (which was delicious) and taught us interesting things about the area and the food as we went. Would highly recommend!

Worth it!

We had a lovely small group tour of food and history with Marco. We enjoyed deli meats, cheese, bread, a little wine, a little beer, suppli, pizza, cannoli, and gelato while walking the streets of Trastevere. Great tour!
