What participants say about this foodie Roman tour:

Great start to our Italy trip.
"Our guide Maria was incredibly knowledgeable and shared with us wonderful insights into the history of the Jewish ghetto and all of the foods we enjoyed. The food was wonderful and plentiful. There was more than enough to eat and we enjoyed the full 3 hours of the tour. Highly recommend this tour to get a different side of Rome that many may not appreciate and have a fun and very good progressive meal along the way."

Great tour, delicious food, fun time!
"Such a great experience. Our tour guide, Andrea, was very knowledgeable and fun. The food stops were truly delicious! We are a family of 4 with 2 teen/tween daughters and they really enjoyed it also."

Highlight of Rome Trip!
"Matteo was absolutely amazing!! He was friendly, VERY knowledgeable, and drew on his life experiences to bring the Jewish Ghetto to life. The tour was paced perfectly, with historic descriptions along with culinary insight. He took us to authentic restaurants and brought out the food for us (expenses were all included in the tour) and we didn’t have to wait in the lines. The Jewish Ghetto was such a charming location, too. We absolutely loved it, bringing more family and requesting for Matteo in the future."

Do this. You won't regret it!
"We did this tour with Matteo and he was absolutely fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable and funny too. The food was amazing, and mixed with the history of the area it was a great way to spend the evening. An absolute must for any visitors to Rome!"

Eye opener and great food!
"Amazing tour! Informative guide. Food and wine were great! We never would have experienced this area of Rome without this tour. Highly recommend!"
