Very neat experience. The guide (Sylvia), was great. Super knowledgeable and great personality and did a good job of getting the guests engaged. Did olive oil and wine paired with some great food. Dessert was off the charts. Super casual.

We had an amazing time at our wine and olive oil tasting with Giulia! She is extremely knowledgeable and personable, and made the entire experience both fun and informative. We loved learning about the local wines and olive oils, and getting to experience a little more of Italy’s food and wine culture. It was such a special experience to share with my mom and a highlight of our trip! Giulia was a wonderful host, and we would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area.
Amazing experience with the most amazing guide; Clelia made this a memorable experience, not just about the food and wine but also about the Italian lifestyle. I highly recommend this experience with Clelia.
Sylvia was an incredible tour guide. She was so knowledgeable and shared with us not only about the food, but shared with us historic stories along the way. She was kind, fun, and energetic, and at the same time gave us space to enjoy time together. Wonderful experience!
We love olives, olive oil and wines. So we were in great anticipation of this class. The place is absolutely lovely. It is a joy to discover the outside all iron and glass and then enter the interior space. Elegant and Glorious! We met our tutor Alessandro who was truly wonderful. We thought we knew a lot about olive oils but learned so much more and enjoyed the learning. The veggies and breads for the olive oils were great. If I say anymore it will be all superlatives. Four different wines and bread and charcuterie board! Alessandro made it so enjoyable and fun. We hated that it ended!
Silvia was a wonderful guide. She was informative and delightful! The tour was 3:15 - just right. I would highly recommend this tour.
Silvia was amazing! So knowledgeable and a great experience!
It was a great time! Silvia took us to amazing spots with great food. She was so knowledgeable about Rome's history and to explain the food and drinks.
AMAZING!!!!! Alex was so knowledgeable. Food was delicious. Location was wonderful. Wine was spectacular. Wish there had been more to do with the olive oil. That was really interesting. Alex was THE BEST!
It was amazing ! Our guide was fantastic—so knowledgeable and passionate about the region’s flavors. We learned so much about Lazio’s wines and the extra virgin olive oil. Every bite and sip was a delight! Totally worth the price.
The olive oil and wine tasting paired with cheeses and various salumi was perfect in every way. Our sommelier Natalia shared her amazing expertise on wine, olive oil, food ..production, the history of the azienda featured...perfect in every way.
My friend and I were the only two people participating in this activity and our host, Camilla, was beyond amazing. We thoroughly appreciated Camilla's vast expertise and enjoyed her company throughout the experience.
Wonderful afternoon with Clelia! Very knowledgeable and personable. Loved all of the information she provided. I highly recommend!
Clelia is the best! Her italian accent adds so much to the overall experience. Really friendly, and of course exquisite wines for the tour.
It wasn’t a good start but turned out to be one of the best tour I’ve signed up for. Camilla was knowledgeable, passionate on what she does and I’m confident that she will do very well. Good job!
If you're looking for an authentic and enriching food and wine experience in Rome, you find it!!!!. This olive oil and wine tasting, led by the incredible duo Alessandro and Natasha, was without a doubt one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. Set in a charming location right in the center of Rome, the atmosphere was intimate, relaxed, and perfectly curated for learning and enjoyment. Alessandro’s deep knowledge of Italian wines, combined with Natasha’s passion for extra virgin olive oil and food culture, created the perfect balance of education and entertainment. Whether you’re a wine lover, a food enthusiast, or simply someone wanting to know deeper the Italian culture, this experience is a must. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Rome!
