Trastevere Food Tour

William_F, Sep 2026
Food was delicious! The tour guy was friendly and engaging. You definitely get your steps in and work off the calories.

Fun way to experience classic local foods presented perfectly.

Wilmer_B, Sep 2026
It was great! Marco was an informative friendly guide. The area and specific stops were planned and executes perfectly. We got to try all the classic dishes, particular to Rome. The dining at tables provided fun interactions with others in our small group. Everyone had a blast. The different stops were very popular but had prearranged space for our group.

Don’t miss this!!!

My daughter and I had a fantastic time on this food tour in Rome. We were able to sample a wonderful variety of foods and wines, and everything we tried was delicious. Our guide, Arvin, was absolutely wonderful. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and so much fun. He created an enjoyable atmosphere and made the entire group feel welcome. We also really enjoyed the other people in our group, which made the experience even more memorable. This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Rome. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for great food, wine, fun, and a memorable experience with a fantastic guide. Thank you, Arvin, for such a wonderful evening!

Arvin was great!!! We danced, we laughed and he feed us. He gave us some history about the areas we were in. We had a great group of people from across America and Arvin created a group of old friends for the several hours we were his. He and his partners created a fantastic tour. Would definitely book again and refer people.

Arvin the Food Tour guide

Eileen_F, Sep 2026
Our tour guide was AMAZING. I believe you spell his name Arvin! We are still talking about it. Especially the “fireworks fisherman” 😊

Fun and filling walking food tour.

Adev_A, Sep 2026
Frederica (sp?) was outstanding. The stops we made we're wonderful and provided a wide variety sampling of Rome eats. The treks between the stops was filled with her extensive experiences of living in Rome her whole life and not just about the food. By the end of the night we were all completely stuffed (and a little tipsy)! Well done!

Food tour in Trastevere tonight is A+

chris_v, Sep 2026

We saw all of Rome’s tourist attractions and this food tour was our favorite part of the trip! Monika was an excellent tour guide - knowledgeable, personable and funny - and made the experience that much better. Food was great and we learned a lot about the history and evolution of popular foods in Rome. Though it was a very hot afternoon, I would recommend this tour any day and any time!

Craig was a great guide. Involved everyone in group, good selection of different types of foods along with knowledge of the 2 different areas we walked through. Easy walk, left feeling full after 2scoops of real gelato!

Connor_S, Sep 2026
We had a great experience with Sam, our guide. Visited some great places and ate some great food. Can highly recommend.

"Foodie" tour??? More like marginal cuisine walking way too far!!!

Sara_C, Sep 2026
We have enjoyed other walking food tours in the past so we were especially excited to experience one in Rome! The description of the "Tour Guy" sounded fantastic - instead we were led by a middle-aged Australian woman who seemed a bit disinterested in the whole thing. The meeting point was near Piazza Fernese, which is an amazing area with TONS of wonderful Osterias; instead of focusing on a few places there, we stopped at a charcuterie mart where we ate cheese and meats standing up (with no plates) and dodging customers trying to get into the shop. Our wine was served in a paper cup. The second stop was across the Tiber - she led us what seemed like forever to a basic "college bar" where we ate "suppli" and drank prosecco. We live in a college town so hitting a bar like this doesn't feel particularly "special." We walked back a way to a very small restaurant for some pasta (finally!) and some questionable veal dish. The seating was very tight at both of these places and the descriptions of the dishes were perfunctory at best. Finally, we stopped for gelato at an "artisanal" gelato place and it was honestly the worst we've ever had. It was more like soft serve ice cream than the flavor-rich gelato we experienced in Florence and Taormina. We both suspected that the chosen locations were "buddies in the business" rather than excellent examples of the cuisine. Tour Guy, please do better going forward!!! I will hesitate to do a so-called "foodie tour" again. Your money is better spent on a nice meal in an authentic Osteria.

Wonderful food tour with Fiona

Jennifer_C, Sep 2026
We did this tour on our first full day in Rome, and Fiona was a wonderful tour guide. We learned a lot about Roman culture as well as the food, and had a good time with the others on the tour.

Our Rome Food Tour with Mateo was fantastic! 🍝🍷 Mateo was an excellent guide—knowledgeable, personable, and clearly passionate about both Rome and its food. Every stop brought something delicious, and we got to experience the city through the foods and stories that make it special. Great food, great company, and a great guide. Come hungry—you will not leave that way! 😂🇮🇹 Highly recommend Mateo for anyone wanting to eat their way through Rome!

Delicious Good Tour!

Kim_F, Aug 2026
We met our guide, Rosabla or Rose at the designated spot. She was holding her flag and easy to spot. What was nice it was a small group, just six of us. Rose talked a lot about the square we were in, Piazza Farnese, then we walked a little bit to a salumeria and tasted three meats & three cheeses that were just cut for us and some wine. She said it’s a place where the locals go. Quite delicious! We walked a little bit more and Rose spoke about the history and walked across to Trastevere and stopped in a restaurant for wine and suppli. That too was delicious and she spoke how it was made. We continued on and went to a trattoria for our main course. We had more cheese, ricotta with honey and bread. Then two different pastas followed by a meat saltimbocca and wine of course. Last but not least we went to Oteleg! which was right next door for Gelato, spelled backwards you get the name. We were able to get two scoops of any flavor in a cup or cone and fresh whipped cream. Everything was delicious and you leave very, very full and satisfied. Rose sat with us with each tasting to explain everything and the history of Trastevere. Great food tour and highly recommended!
