Fun and wonderful experience walking through neighborhoods in Rome and learning about many different foods and wines of the area.

Half Day Food & Wine Tour

Donna_D, Oct 2022

Mitya was an excellent guide. He was knowledgeable and humorous. The restaurants we excellent and the wine even better

Mediocre and unimaginative.

Kimberly_C, May 2022

The tour was unimaginative and majority of the food stops were not in Trastevere. The food was mediocre accompanied by cheap wine. There are much better options available in Rome. I would advice against this one.

Enjoyable

Emily_A, Apr 2022

Meeting new people & trying local produce very enjoyable we would recommend this tour to our friends and family

Fun laughter and good food

Janice_C, Oct 2021

Great guide.. It was a wonderful experience to someone who is traveling solo to meet new people and enjoy the tasting of Rome. I would recommend this tour

Great food with amazing host.

Max_S, Oct 2021

We were a small group of 6 people. It was great to try out so many different starters, so at the main meal we're almost already full. The food was delicious and with the host we heard many stories and history background, which made the evening a great Italian experience. Thank you very much!

The whole trip, our tour...
