    One of the best tour in italy i have done! The food was authentic and best quality. This tour is not only about the pizza , pasta and suptli but also a lot of old roman sea food you can try. The guide has enough knowledge about the foods. I love to eat a lot and this tour was best to try all the italian food all together

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re really happy to hear it was one of the best tours you’ve done in Italy and that you loved the authentic, top-quality food. And yes — we’re glad you noticed that it’s not just about pizza, pasta, and supplì: we also love introducing guests to the lesser-known side of Roman cuisine, including traditional seafood specialties. A big thank you for mentioning our guide as well — we’re proud to have passionate hosts who can explain the stories and traditions behind what you’re tasting. If you ever come back to Rome, we’d love to welcome you again for another delicious experience! Warm regards, Ancient and Recent
