This tour was the highlight of our trip. Our guide, Leonardo was incredible. Extremely knowledgeable about Rome, gave us tips for things to do and other things to watch out for. The food was delicious; great local spots. We even went back to a few of them later in our trip. The best part of the tour was the pride and love our guide, Leonardo, has for his city. He wanted us to love Rome like he does. Would take this tour again in a second. If you can, request Leonardo V, you won't be disappointed.

We just finished a food tour in Rome with Lily, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. Lily was absolutely fantastic friendly, informative, engaging, and full of positive energy. From the moment we met her, she made us feel welcome and helped us experience Rome like a local.
One of my favorite parts of the tour was visiting the Jewish Ghetto and trying authentic fried artichokes. Along the way, we enjoyed a succulent pork sandwich, pizza prepared three different ways, delicious supplì, organic gelato, and wonderful wine. Every stop offered something unique, and Lily did an excellent job explaining the history, culture, and traditions behind the food.
What truly made the experience special was Lily herself. She has a warm, beautiful personality and a genuine passion for sharing Rome with her guests. Her knowledge, enthusiasm, and sense of humor made every part of the tour enjoyable and memorable.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome, and if you’re lucky enough to have Lily as your guide, you’re in for a wonderful experience. Thank you, Lily, for an unforgettable evening filled with amazing food, great conversation, and lasting memories!
Much Love!

This was such a fun tour - one of the highlights of our trip! Simone was a fun, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable guide that made the great tour even better!
Ruben_R, May 2026
We had a fantastic food tour with GianCarlo! Best thing we did on our first day in time! The food stops and tastings were perfectly scouted and selected. Don’t let the word “tastings” fool you; as they are not bites - they are full tasty portions! Glad we planned this as our dinner! And it came with history lessons and info about the areas we walked thru! Highly recommend this tour!

Such an amazing experience!!! Fiametta was an incredible guide! Her love for the culture, the food and the people was evident in everything she did. She took time to get to know all of us and worked hard to specialize our experiences. She went above and beyond and this experience was one of my most favorite while in Rome!!! Could not recommend more!!!

We loved this tour! We had the most amazing tour guide. She had great energy, was knowlegable in the history and had many interesting facts. We visited less crowded areas that were still quite significant. The food was great! We loved trying things we would not normally have eaten.

This food tour was a great way to begin our first day in Rome. A 6 pm start is perfect way to get some exercise and fresh air to ward off jet lag. Our guide Anna, was super nice and informative not only about the foods but also the neighborhoods and hidden jewels I was particularly touched by the history of the Jewish Ghetto neighborhood. The foods were representative of the different neighborhoods and all delicious and plentiful. Anna is special and I’m glad our paths crossed even if it was only for a little while!!

Lily was super knowledgeable and very funny! A great tour guide for those who have and have not been to the area.

Alessandra is a treasure. She so happily shares her Italian culture and traditions while artfully engaging her group members with questions about their own cultures. Our food treats were varied and very generous in serving size. It was a delicious and delightful afternoon.

Giancarlo was an amazing tour guide so knowledgeable about the area. Ever where we went we got food history and good roman knowledge. This was truly a great experience the history alone was worth it.

Great experience, delicious foods, and our guide Caterina was wonderful. My son discovered a couple new favorite foods!
Laurie_E, May 2026
We signed up to take a tour of part of the city of Rome and enjoy some street food and culture. This is a great way to learn some of the history of important parts of Rome, enjoy some localized foods, and really get in touch with some culture in history in Rome. Our tour guide, Rita, was excellent.It was really interesting, very well organized, extremely well presented, and just a great tour. I would certainly recommend it to anyone.

We had a great time on the tour. Sylvia was a wonderful host - providing us with explanations about the food and historical information about the area.
Leslie_G, Apr 2026
We were 3 vegetarians and Giancarlo knew exactly where to take us and what to order! Everything we ate was amazing and we also got a little history about the foods and the places he took us. I HIGHLY recommend this tour and Giancarlo in particular!
Gale_D, Apr 2026
Giancarlo was an informative and interesting tour guide. He took us to places I never would’ve found on my own in Rome. My family really enjoyed the experience.
Jacquie_F, Apr 2026
Tour Guide - very friendly and informative. Wasn't expecting to hear how badly the Jewish people were treated.
joshua_b, Apr 2026
“Flame” did an amazing job going through the history and all the amazing local spots! 10/10 experience!!
Kathy_K, Apr 2026
Great food and traditional Italian food rather than just pizza history that was included in the tour was very interesting. Guide was really well educated and did a great job.
Annie_J, Apr 2026
Our host, Flame, was fire! She was so sweet, picked the best spots, and adjusted the tour to meet our needs. This was also a quieter tour compared to typical Rome icon tours.
