Itinerary
Your first stop will be at a family-owned deli where you'll sample the most mouth-watering prosciutto, salame, cheeses, and local wines. With over a century of experience, this deli is the go-to spot for locals in search of the perfect charcuterie board. Prepare to have your taste buds tantalized as you learn the difference between parmigiano and pecorino, and prosciutto and salame. And with the perfect glass of wine to complement your tasting, you'll be tempted to return to this hidden gem to stock up on the delectable treats for your journey home.
But the food doesn't stop there! Next, let us give you a taste of Rome’s street food at its best! Try a local favorite - crispy and fluffy fried cod also known as baccalà or crispy rice with a gooey mozzarella center known as supplì (depending on the venue visited). We’ll stop at an authentic establishment and see why these quick grab-on-the-go bites are a beloved part of Roman cuisine, of course, we won't leave you high and dry and you'll get to sample another excellent wine.
Then take a seat in a cozy, family-run restaurant and savor a delicious three-course meal, starting with an appetizing antipasto starter followed by two classic Roman pasta dishes and a mouthwatering traditional meat entree, perfectly paired with local wines. You'll not only satisfy your taste buds but also discover what makes Rome one of the world's top foodie destinations, all while enjoying a relaxing atmosphere. And of course, no authentic Italian dinner is complete without a refreshing digestivo, so you'll end your meal on a high note with a Limoncello liqueur.
Lastly, indulge in the sweetest part of your tour with a visit to the best organic Gelateria in Trastevere. As any Italian will tell you, no meal is complete without a delicious scoop of gelato, and this stop will not disappoint. Your expert guide will show you how to identify the finest quality gelato while you sample a variety of flavors.

Rose was amazing and lovely tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and considerate. Would go on a food tour again with her. Bouno!
Our guide Craig was the perfect mix of knowledge combined with humour, a great way to start our holiday in Rome. Almost forgot to mention the delicious foods we had on our tour with enough to satisfy most appetites ending with a final stop at a “pukka” gelateria.
Marco was a great tour guide! Super funny and knowledgeable on Rome’s history. The food was phenomenal, Marco was prompt!
Great tour! We started with an appetizer and wine then to Suppli (large fried rice ball with Mozzarella and tomato sauce) which was delicious and then a sit down 3 course meal including, again, lots of wine. Our guide Sam was knowledgeable, professionally and personable. I’d highly recommend this on your first or second night in Rome so you can apply what you learn to the rest of your trip! Ciao
