The Roman Food Tour Rome

Guilia was our tour guide on! She was great! We enjoyed learning about the history behind Roman cuisine and caught up on any Roman foods we missed. The Roman food tour was easily the highlight of our time in Italy. Our group had amazing tourists and it was a great getting to know everybody ! We highly recommend the Roman Food tour. Book now!

This tour was worth every penny! We had a tour of a different area of Rome we had not been too before with the amazing tour guide Vivienne. She was so friendly,very knowledgeable and very helpful. The food we had was amazing and we thought we would only have small bites but it was full on meals. If you get the chance definitely book one!

This was something I found on YouTube and wasn’t sure how much I’d like it. I truly enjoyed myself. Tina out your guide was simply the best. Great way to see the city and the people in a different way. All the food was fresh and amazing. I highly recommend this. Also a great way to make new friends.

Wow! We experienced a great evening. Our pasta and tiramisu cooking class was awesome. Our chef was amazing. He was patient, kind and knowledgeable. We stayed later to continue our great conversation with our cooking companions. I would highly recommend.

I’m writing this a couple days after our experience, so this isn’t just the wine talking. We really enjoyed this experience! The wine portions were generous and we tried several different cheeses and meats. The highlight though was really Marta. She was so knowledgeable, so friendly, and really went above and beyond. 10/10, no notes

Our tour with the Roman Food Tour was incredible! Definitely the highlight of our Rome experience. Our guide was Irene was amazing. She was kind, open, and so accommodating. I’ve been on a lot of food tours and Irene is one of the best! Irene had great recommendations and we really enjoyed our tour. The food and wine was so amazing!

An amazing food tour with the funniest, friendliest guide Irene. She accommodated all our food requirements, helped us make purchases at the market, answered all our questions and shared so many fun anecdotes and stories. The food was phenomenal and my wine cup was never empty!! Would highly recommend!

Highly highly recommend this cooking class! Wasn’t expecting it to be this fun and entertaining! If you have time to spare in Rome and not sure where else to visit, please come here! You won’t be disappointed! As a person who have never make pasta and tiramisu before, this class is really easy and fun! Jack, Eddy and the crews are super fun and you will have a great time here! Food + wine + desserts + fun = a amazing experience!

As foodies, we had to do a food tour to try and eat as much as we could. This one was done in the Prati neighborhood right outside of the Vatican City by The Roman Food Tour company First stop was for some Roman street food at Trapizzino. Imagine a pizza rolled into a cone and then filled with flavorful toppings. I had the Double Cream which consisted of a blend of Cream and Buffalo Mozzarella in addition to Cantabrico Anchovies. Salty, creamy, and a hint of sweetness from the cream. An explosive flavor combo. Next we stopped at the one and only Bonci Pizzarium. If you watched chef table to see Ann Kim, you might have seen this place. Phenomenal pizza by the slice with creative toppings like purple potatoes or squash with sausage. Next we had some traditional Italian pasta at Osteria Da Fortunata. Some red wine paired with Amatriciana. Well spiced and fresh noodles went down way too easy. We finished with charcuterie and tiramisu at La Nicchia Cafe. Many types of cheeses, bruschetta, balsamic, meats, and olive oils. Rounded out by the best tiramisu I've ever had. ____________

Fun, interesting and one of the better things we've done in Rome. I highly recommend, great for both couples and for families! Thank you Francesca! Learning the history of the food while sipping tasty "vino" and eating local Italia dishes was a perfect way to spend the afternoon.

My most favorite part of my time in Rome. The food was fantastic. The company made it even more fun because we met people from all over. It felt like an extended evening eating amazing food with friends. Our guide was so open, friendly and knowledgeable about the food and it's origins. If you are the person who looks first at restaurants when you travel, you must take this tour.

We went on the Trastevere by Sunset tour with Jessenia. It was one of our favorite experiences during our time in Italy. We would highly recommend. Jessenia's knowledge and passion for the food made this more than just a tasting, but a journey through Italian cusine. The food was exceptional and the portions were generous. The gnocchi was my absolute favorite.

Great guided your. Our guide was knowledgeable enthusiastic and attentive. The food was amazing. Our guide encouraged us to rotate who we sat with. This really enhanced the evening. This a must do when in Rome!!

Nothing short of amazing. The choice of restaurants and wine were a really experience. Our guide Deven was funny and made you very comfortable quickly. I highly recommend doing this tour and experiencing more of what Roma is really about, not just a tourist trap.

We did the Prati tour and it was amazing. The guide Nicole was easy going and had good information. The food was amazing.

The Rome food tour was a great way to start off my vacation. My husband and I learned so much about Italy through its food during this tour. Our guide, Jess, was just awesome. She speaks perfect English, was clearly passionate (and knowledgeable) about food and wine, and is so very sweet. We opted for the night tour and was glad we didn't fill up our tummies beforehand. There was plenty of great food to try and Jess was spot on with her recommendations. Thanks to Jess for a memorable experience!

The tour was an educational experience. We went to 5 places but 2 of them were mostly cheese tastings. One stop was pizza tasting -- 6-7 bites each person. One was pasta stop -- a small portion of gnocchi and 2 pieces of ravioli, also calamari. Last stop was gelato. While we learned a lot about Italian food culture on this tour, we left the tour still a bit hungry. We had higher expectation of food being offered (quantity and quality) especially for 90 euros per person over 4 hours. It was still a fun evening but I honestly cannot recommend this to people who enjoy bigger meals. It would be great for those who eat small dinners. Some of us on this tour were still hungry after pasta course so our guide ordered an extra pizza to share but we were still hungry. We had a really fantastic food tour in Barcelona with SO much good food before, so maybe our expectation of this tour was too high.

Knew from the second we arrived to start the tour and meet Devo that it was going to be big fun! The food was amazing and the company was exceptional. I highly recommend this as soon as you arrive. Thanks so much Devo!

Had a wonderful tour with Celeste exploring the many food offerings in Roman. Her knowledge of food and how the Italians classify food was quite in-depth and greatly appreciated!!

While in Rome, my husband and I did 2 tours with Jess. She was warm and genuine and the best tour guide we have ever experienced. Her knowledge and passion for Italian food and wine is second to none! We booked the Lakeside lunch with Vineyard visit for our first tour. It was an incredible experience! We enjoyed it so much, we went back the next evening for The Prati by sunset tour. We feel like we have a new friend in Rome!

What a great way to see and taste parts of Rome. We did the Prati evening tour with Morgan. She was a great guide and very knowledgeable. We started with cheeses & wine, then next was a great meat market where we learned about and got to try procutto(sp?), balsamic vinegar and more wine. Next was a pizza place that offered 800 different kinds we tried 6. Next was a restaurant with great food and more wine. Then off to a gelato place where we learned about real gelato not the whipped up kind and had our choice of 2 flavors from a selection of sixty. All around great night.

Absolutely amazing! Our tour guide Raluca was the bomb. Super funny, extra knowledgeable and kept the vino flowing. Worth 3x what we paid. Loved it.

I do not have enough good things to say about our tours early in 2015. My husband and I did the combination Colosseum and night time food tour. It was around $60 per person, and worth every penny. Our Colosseum tour happened to not have anyone else booked for it, so it was like a private tour. We spent several hours with our guide, who truly has a passion for Roman history. We learned so much from him! We toured the Colosseum and Roman Forum, before being escorted to the Vittorio Emmanuel monument, where we were given lift tickets to the top. We were also given a cell phone for the day in case we had any problems between the tours or needed help getting to our next location. The guide was patient and took lots of time to answer our questions, let us take pictures, and give us lots of information. Later that evening, we met with our next guide in an area of Rome with far fewer tourists. For hours, our group walked from shop to shop, meeting shop keepers, drinking wine, sampling delicacies from all over Italy, and learning more about Italian food than I ever knew I needed to know. Our group wasn't large, which made it great to joke and get to know one another a little. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary, and they presented us with a balloon, rose, and a card. It was the most lovely gesture! Lastly, of note, is that if there are any food allergies or sensitivities, this tour is for you. I have a gluten intolerance and all of Italy was easier to navigate than I expected, but the Roman Food Tour went above and beyond. Our tour guide was knowledgable and alerted the shops before our arrival, then double checked each item before giving it to me. There were only two items on the entire tour I couldn't have or couldn't be modified for me- one was the bread on which proper Italian butter was sampled (I just had a bit on a spoon!) and the pizza at Bonci. To be fair, they gave me instead a portion of porcetta at Bonci, a common sandwich filling. It was crisp pork, succulent and heavily flavored with rosemary. I shared with the group and they agreed that my taste was better than the pizza! (That says something, because Bonci is world famous for their pizza!). If we get to go back to Rome, we will 100% do the tour again.

I cannot give this tour enough stars! We did this tour the night we landed in Rome and it was perfect! Our guide Jess was fantastic and made sure we were all comfortable and had a great time! Plenty of wine and wonderful food!!!! By the end of the tour the entire group was friends! A night I will never forget! Highly recommend!!!!!!

Wasn't sure what to expect, but our travel agent said they were the best, and she was right on. We did the Prati evening tour with Morgan. Prati is an upscale neighborhood in the shadows of the Vatican, and Morgan walked us around. We had 5 couples representing 5 different countries, and all of us had a great time. Morgan was extremely knowledgeable,, and at each stop gave us a heads up about what we were doing and why this place was on the list. We started with cheeses & wines, then to a butcher shop where we experience cured meats, balsamic vinegar and more wine. Morgan next took us to Gabriele Bonci's pizzeria. He has been featured on CNN Anthony Bourdain and Vogue Magazine as the "Pizza King of Rome"-wow this place is amazing! How about 800 possible pizza combo's? Then to a family owned with great food and more wine. Homemade gnocci, ravioli and the best calamari ever. Topped it off with a real gelato at the final stop, Fatamorgana, a neighborhood gelato place, and learned how to tell the real thing from the artificial stuff. This is a great tour for foodies, and completely off the tourist maps and traps. Will do another one on next trip to Rome! Thank you Morgan!

This was one of our favorite tours in Rome. I didn't know what to expect, but our guide Jess really exceeded expectations. Jess had a lot of passion about food and that really resonated with us. She shared a wealth of knowledge as well. I expected tiny bites of things as we went from location to location, but was pleasantly surprised with the amount of food we sampled. We were stuffed afterwards. My only negative was that it was alot of standing after an already long day in Rome. I would have liked to have a few more opportunities to sit down. I would definitely recommend them.

First off, this tour is amazing. A must do. Well worth the 80 Euro and I would have paid 150 euro for it. Its a steal for 80 euro. We went to 5-6 places with about 10 others and had amazing food at each place. I was stuffed by the third stop but my wife and I (on our honeymoon) could not stop eating as everything was so good. Jess was or tour guide and she made the tour go from amazing to incredible. It would not be possible to do on your own because these places we went to were only for locals, not tourist traps. Some of them just opened for us. Jess made the tour very personable. When you ask about a food or drink that wasn't on the tour Jess would just order it up and have everyone try it. She even got a bottle of prosecco with a sparkler to celebrate our honeymoon. At the end she called a cab for us and spoke with the driver before we took off. The tour would. It have been the same without Jess, but from the space, allowance, and permissions that the owners of the company gave Jess, I'm sure any of the guide should would be great. Like I said, it's a must do.

This was our favorite time and money spent in Rome. We did the evening food tour in the Prati area. It was so beautiful and peaceful, a nice break from the crazy touristy areas. Yelp isn't huge in Italy yet, but if you look at their TripAdvisor reviews you'll see hundreds of five star reviews. My husband's favorite part was the gelato. Mine was the cheeses! Do this, you won't regret it!

We had the great fortune of having Jess as our tour guide. Jess is the PERFECT combination you want in a tour guide - knowledgeable, friendly, bubbly and interesting. Jess's love of food and wine is infectious and she's a great teacher for those of us who aren't nearly as knowledgeable in these subject areas. We loved every stop on our tour and felt like they offered a lot of variety. We highly recommend The Roman Food Tour and we hope future tour takers are lucky enough to have Jess as their guide.

I just returned from the Trionfale food tour with our guide, Raluca. I cannot say enough good things about this tour and our tour guide. Raluca was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and kind and it was really such a pleasure with her leading the way. We were a group of six, which was wonderfully small and intimate. We made 6 stops at various shops in the neighborhood near the Cipro Metro. It was great to be outside the tourist areas of Rome and where the real locals are living and eating. Every single item that we tasted was fantastic. They've really done a great job of selecting food vendors to make sure that we tour guests are getting only the best. We also had quite a bit of wine, which was a nice addition to all of the food. By the end of the tour I was beyond full. There was so much food, in the very best way. The highlight of the tour for me was the Paciotti family. They are truly larger than life!!! I was considering several different Rome food tours & I am so very glad I chose this one. I cannot even imagine a better experience than the one I had this morning. 5 stars! It is an incredible value when you consider the food, the wine, and the knowledgeable guide... I can't recommend this highly enough...!!!
