Beautiful and delicious!!! - The Jewish ghetto is rich in history and delicious food. Our guide Emanuel is very friendly and knowledgeable. I recommend you do the walking tour on your first day of your trip, so you get an idea of local food and recommendations for good restaurants and bars.

Take this tour - Wonderful tour full of interesting facts and stories to go with the food. Marco, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and excited to share the history and food of the area. We had samples of several items, and tried things I wouldn’t order off a menu (that I loved!).

History and food you can’t go wrong! - This was the perfect size tour just 4 of us and our wonderful guide Sabrina. The walk took us through the Jewish quatre and the Trastevere with food stops in both. The artichokes were amazing. Sabrina was knowledgeable and provided us with excellent commentary and stories along the way. All in all excellent.

Walking Tour with Food - Overall a good walking tour. We did not venture too far. Plenty of food. For some on the tour, it was hard to understand the guides accent.

Fascinating part of Rome. This particular guide needs practice speaking English. - Going through the Jewish Ghetto was fascinating and unique but that part was too short. We had an enthusiastic guide but unfortunately had a hard time understanding him as his accent was SO strong and he spoke so quickly and not loud enough that at least HALF of what he said was unfortunately lost.

Do not book - Avoid at all costs. We were looking forward to this tour all day and our tour guide did not show up. Unreliable and ruined our whole evening in Rome. Not to mention, we booked this tour months in advance. Your company claimed they didn’t receive the notification. Disgusting service.
