What a wonderfully surprising tour.

5.00We chose this tour rather than go back into Rome as we'd spent 5 days there the week before. We had a marvellous guide who was super proud of her heritage and full of local knowledge. We walked, we talked and sampled beautiful Italian treats and eats along the way from various places. Our final stop was a lovely Italian restaurant where we were served lunch with a choice of wine. Most people were already too full to finish it but we did. It showed us how much Civativechia had to offer and what an important Port town it was and is. Highly recommended tour.
It was easy to meet up...

5.00Oh boy what a wonderful tour! Natalina, our guide was amazing and we were well fed. I am so glad we skipped Rome and its hustle and bustle to do this. Learning about the history, the architecture and many many more was superb-and we were well fed with pizza, a breakfast, Suppli and a meal with wine or an Aperil Spritz. Thank you!
Knowledgeable, fun, more...

5.00Knowledgeable, fun, more eating than you can do and lots of history. Roberta was kind and tried to stop in shade and be sure everyone's needs were being met!
Better food than on the ship!

5.00We highly recommend this tour with Raf. So much history explained and the included food was delicious. Do not eat breakfast before going on this tour. We had a coffee with cakes, three types of pizza to try and the last tasting we will leave as a surprise as it was amazing!!!! 😋 It was just the two of us on the tour so felt like we had our very own tour guide. You won’t be disappointed at all if you do this tour 🩷
Excellent Tour

5.00My husband and I stopped in Civitavecchia during a cruise. 99% of the people on the ship went to Rome. But, since we had been to Rome before, we decided to check out this food and history tour. We’re so glad we did! There were only two couples and a guide. Our guide, Ilaria, was awesome. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke perfect English. She gave a great tour! Ilaria is a true local and showed us how much she loves her city. The food was delicious, albeit by the end, it was actually way too much! If you’ve already been to Rome, check out Civitavecchia and this tour by Incitur. It’s so worth it.
Excellent tour with knowledgeable guide

5.00Excellent tour. Our guide Roberta was very knowledgeable and charming and excellent company. We booked a small group tour, but there was just the 2 of us, which meant it felt like walking around and sampling food with a friend. The food was delicious - you definitely don't need breakfast before you go.
