5.00If you book this tour please ask for the tour guide Daniele! He is THE BEST!! This was not only a food tour, but also a history tour. My entire family had a great time, we ate so many Roman specific dishes and all around wonderful food. We also learned a lot about Rome and its history that is not in other tours. I HIGHLY suggest, and please ask for Daniele. He was the best guide.

5.00I highly recommend this tour. Silvia is a great tour guide. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. She took us places to try delicious food. My favorite was the porkette sandwich and of course the gelato. She also told us about the history of the places we saw.
If you only do 1 tour in Trastevere… do this one
