The food is phenomenal! Visited at least 6 local restaurants/bakery/markets- one better than the other! I highly recommend this experience! Our guide Silvia was knowledgeable and made us feel so comfortable!

This was the best thing we did in Rome this trip! Syllia was incredibly fun and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

This was a fun food tour where we got to sample a variety of different foods in a local region of Rome. We were able to get into places that already had a waiting list. We hit all the highlights of appetizers, main meal, and deserts without feeling rushed. We highly recommend Viator for this tour and our guide was wonderful.

This was a great way to spend our first evening in Rome. Our guide, Orso, was extremely knowledgeable about everything not just the food. Everything was well organized and the food was excellent. A good cross section of every day foods.

This is a wonderful tour to book if you want to get to know this rich and interesting area in Rome. And if you luck out and get Vanessa as your guide, you will have a terrific experience. It’s not all about the food (but that, of course, is the star of the tour) it’s about getting to know the history and the culture of the region . And Vanessa is an expert who will enhance your experience with a lot of interesting information.

They provide large portions of food! The area is beautiful. Vincent was very nice and gave some history with the tour.

Ask for Silvia, she was amazing! She was nice, funny and so informative. We enjoyed amazing food with history intertwined. It was a highlight of our trip.

This was a standing street food experience which was not expected based on the price. Profit margin was enormous, since we saw all the prices. No napkins were offered , nor water (until asked), where our first stop required us to peel fruit with our hands. Next stop was eating with our hands standing. We then insisted on a table at the next stop, which seemed to be an imposition. Stay away. Also, our guide could not answer basic questions about the product offerings of the shops we went into. So disappointing.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Dear Customers,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’re always grateful for feedback, even when it’s not positive, because it allows us to clarify what this kind of experience is about.
As you know, this is a walking food tour, designed to let guests discover the city through authentic stops: local markets, traditional shops, and small producers. In this spirit, one of the highlights is tasting fresh seasonal fruit directly at the market. On this occasion, we enjoyed fresh figs therefore to peel and taste them with your hands.
Regarding comfort: I was not made aware of any back pain until we reached the Trapizzino stop. That said, every time a seat was available I made sure you could sit and rest, and I also invited you to let me know if you felt tired at any point. A walking tour does, of course, involve a certain amount of walking, but I always do my best to ensure that guests are comfortable whenever possible.
I regret that the tour did not fully meet your expectations, but I sincerely hope you can still appreciate the purpose: to give visitors an authentic taste of the city’s everyday flavors and traditions, even in their simplest and most genuine form.
Best regards,

Very good food and guide was super accommodating. Went in September which was considered 'out of season' so just the two of us on the tour with the guide!

Lynn_D, May 2025
Excellent tour, very knowledgeable guide very personable. Some lovely food and some out of the way shops and restaurants
Carolyn_P, May 2025
Our guide Christian was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and made our tour fun and interesting. We did this tour in the afternoon having arrived in Rome that morning after a 24 hour flight. It was just the thing we needed. Saw lots but didn’t have to exert too much energy. Thoroughly recommend

Tour ended up being private with just my family of 4. It was a nice selection of food but felt a little weird because the guide was just watching us eat. Cheese & meat plate was so much food—that could have been a full meal in itself. The chicken trapezzino was amazing. Overall, a great way to start our short stay in Rome.

Violetta was knowledgeable and passionate about food and showed us a great time in Trastevere. She shared her favorite places and offered to help us get a cab afterwards. She went above and beyond!
Holley_N, Oct 2024
The suppli and the pasta were both good. However, the 3 of us on the tour were forced to choose 1 type of pasta so it could be split 3 ways. The pizza was average and the gelato was fine. We were told there would be 5 stops. Apparently, 1 of the stops was simply coffee, leaving virtually 4 stops. Bottom line is the tour cost $117.00 US and IMO, was worth maybe $50.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Dear Holly, we apologize that your experience wasn't as good as your expectations, we focus on providing the best local spots and places tò let you taste the different varities of italianized street food that Rome has tò offer. The pasta portion Is quite big, therefore we usually divide It in 3 and our guide provided you with different bowls in order not to share the same plate with others. The pizza Place Is the oldest Bakery in Trastevere which supplies most of the restaurants in the district and the gelateria Is a 40 year old family owned One, which stays true tò the tradition using only local products and without food colourings. Our tours are meant to start from savory tò sweet to appreciate fully all of the foods. We apologize and we Will make treasure of your comments.

We enjoyed our food tour. Our guide was very personable and very informative. Food was good. Got to sample so many different foods. Really enjoyed the Suppli and our sit down meal.

Tiziana was delightful! We enjoyed her company and conversation as much as the treats. Walking around the area gave us a totally different feel than the typical tourist areas. Six different food stops and a nice variety of tastes. We recommend!

Nice guide. Tour only lasted about an hour. Would have liked the 3 hours we paid for. Food was good.

Sylvia was an excellent personable guide! The food she shared with us was diverse, delicious and showed what the Trestevere area had to offer. We only wish we would have done the tour at the beginning of our visit to Rome.

Our tour guide Silvia was excellent. She took us around the Trastevere neighborhood and we got to try a lot of different foods that she recommended. She was very friendly and she was very knowledgeable about the area, explaining to us all of the various sites that we were visiting and or passing. We felt like we were walking around with a friend. I would highly recommend this tour and with Silvia.
