a must do!!!!!! - Francesco was the perfect host to show us around. Fun conversation and very engaging. The spots we stopped at offered some amazing food. It was the perfect tour to take when you first arrive in Rome.

Great food tour and we and a fantastic experience - This was a great food tour and we and a fantastic experience.
Our food tour guide was Francesco, and he was the best! He provided a nice balance of visiting/tasting food at restaurants, and what to look for in a good, family run restaurant.
Also, as we went from restaurant to restaurant, he gave a nice tour and history of the many sites along the way.

Best Rome Foodie Tour EVER!!! - Robbie was absolutely amazing. Truly one of THE BEST tour of our lives. The food was delicious and filling, her stories were so fun and interesting, and tour was so personal and perfect! Both of our kids had an amazing time, even our VERY PICKY 14 year old son. He ranked this as his favorite thing to do on this trip! Thanks Robbie for ensuring our family had such a great time and intro to truly Roman cuisine! We’ll definitely see you next time we return to Rome!! AND…we’ll be sure to come hungry. 💝

Awesome Roman Food Tour - I have been on several food tours around Europe and this was the best one. We went to several local spots and tried many delicious things. Roberta did an amazing job on this tour. She is very passionate about Rome and is a great tour guide. I would highly recommend this tour.

The most amazing food tour out there - I usually don’t like guided tours. However, with Roberta, it wasn’t a tour, it was like going with a local friend to show you around. The food she will introduce you to is THE BEST in Roma. The portions are HUGE. and the company, phenomenal! Totally recommend and grazie mille Roberta!!

Delicious and Informative Tour for Adults and Children - Roberta, a born and breed Roman, provided us with a very personable food tour for myself, my wife and our two children (7 & 10 years old). The tour focused on the Roman culture with some history (focused around food), and she directed us to the eateries that the local Romans frequent. We were able to sample several different Roman delicacies, with Suppli and Spaghetti Carbonara being a couple of favorites. One of the many things that we learned was that Tiramisu is not traditional made with alcohol, which we appreciated since 3 of the 4 of us do not drink.
My family gives this tour 4 Thumbs (or rather, Forks) up!
