Itinerary
Here you are going to meet your local expert who will guide you through the experience and who is going to tell you all the secrets about roman food tour!
Our first stop takes us to one of the city’s most ancient bakeries, located in the heart of the Campo de’ Fiori area. In this charming, historic spot, you’ll taste the famous Roman pizza known as scrocchiarella—thin, crunchy, and irresistibly flavorful. It’s the perfect introduction to Rome’s baking tradition and to the lively atmosphere of one of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods.
The Roman Ghetto is home to some of the city's most iconic culinary traditions. We’ll stop at a local trattoria to enjoy Carciofo alla Giudia, the famous crispy fried artichoke that has been a symbol of Jewish-Roman cuisine for centuries. This authentic specialty will be paired with a carefully selected glass of local wine, allowing you to experience one of Rome’s most beloved flavors in its historic birthplace.
After the first stop, we’ll head to one of Rome’s most beloved fry shops: a tiny yet unmissable spot known to locals. Here, golden, freshly fried delights are prepared nonstop, and you’ll taste the city’s iconic supplì: crispy on the outside, rich and gooey on the inside, and simply irresistible.
What is the most famous dessert in Italy? Without a doubt, tiramisù! In the Piazza Navona area, we’ll visit a beloved spot where you can taste this creamy, perfectly balanced classic or a scoop of rich artisan gelato: both iconic delights of Italian sweet tradition.
We end the tour at a historic coffee shop just steps from the Pantheon, where the timeless atmosphere of one of Rome’s most iconic areas surrounds you. Here, you’ll enjoy a perfectly brewed Italian coffee, the ideal finale to our flavorful journey through the Eternal City.

My wife and I had a wonderful time with Luca. He took us all around to the smaller local places where we had some incredible food. It was really a pleasure. We also finished with the best cup of espresso we have ever had. I would highly recommend this if you are going around Rome for the first time.
Mauro was an excellent guide both to the wonderful street food of Rome and also to the city itself as we had just arrived in Rome earlier that day. The variety of food (suppli, charcuterie, pizza, gelato & tiramisu) were a meal in total with a lovely introduction to the small, locally owned shops & food! Mauro was delightful - an easy conversationalist, sharing Rome’s history and food!
The experience with Alessia was great. Very knowledgeable. The food selection was great.
Alessia was an incredible guide! She was knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about the local food and history, making the entire experience, enjoyable and memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Rome!
Alessia is the best guide tour
Wonderful! Very energetic and lots of fun!!
My husband and I spent a great evening with Ilaria on the Rome street food tour. She was friendly and knowledgeable about the food and the city. We had a fabulous time!
A great first night in Rome tour. Our guide Ilaria was informative but best of all great company. The food was fab, especially the last stop for tiramisu. Highly recommend you book this tour
Ilaria was an amazing tour guide! So accommodating & personal. She took us to a variety of restaurants while giving us insights into the food & area as we were walking around. Enjoyed a good variety of food that was all delicious. Highly recommended!
Very nice tour in the old town of rome
We had such a fantastic food tour of Rome with Ilaria! She was absolutely wonderful – so warm, engaging and fun to spend a few hours with, as well as being incredibly knowledgeable about Rome, its food and its history. We had several delicious stops along the way and loved hearing all the stories and little bits of local knowledge that Ilaria shared with us. She even managed to persuade me to try the tiramisu – and as someone who doesn’t like coffee, I was very sceptical! But it was absolutely delicious. 😂 Clearly the lesson here is: **always trust your food tour guide!** 🤣😍 Thank you, Ilaria, for such a brilliant experience. It was a really fun and memorable way to experience Rome, and we’d highly recommend a tour with her!

Alessia was an excellent tour guide, friendly and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and the tour was well paced.
We had such a great time on the food tour! We loved learning about the history, stories, and culture of the area while trying delicious local food and bites. Irina was incredibly nice, knowledgeable, and engaging, which made the tour feel less like a typical tour and more like spending time with a friend who knows the city inside and out. She made everything so much more fun and interesting, and we really enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommend, especially with Irina!
Stefano was fantastic. He gave us a wonderful tour of Rome & introduced us to great food & neighborhoods. We did the tour our first night in Rome & it helped us get a feel of the city. Would definitely recommend.
so much fun! Ilaria was so great and we had such a fun time with our group!!
We had the tour with Luca today and had such a wonderful experience. He was so friendly and had such knowledge! We ate things and saw things we never would have done on our own. Highly recommend if you are in Rome!
We had a great experience on our tour! Our guide Alessia was very knowledgeable about each stop and all the local fare. The food was delicious, we loved getting a taste of real Roman food!
This is a must do tour. Aliessa our guide is amazing. Very good historical knowledge and also knows her food. We enjoyed all aspects of the tour. Lucky it was a private tour, but a group would work also.
Luca gave us the BEST tour of Rome through food! We tried many new foods and neighborhoods. He walked at a great pace as we are slow walked and was mindful of that. He was great to communicate with and we enjoyed hearing his great stories of Rome, both old and new!
The food tour and associated sightseeing was well worth the $! Luca was a perfect tour guide, so knowledgeable about the city and local food!
Luca was an amazing guide! Not only did he teach us about the great food he also taught us much about the city. Well worth taking the tour!
Stefano was a fantastic guide. Our entire family lived the food and explanations of all of the history and tour. I’d recommend to all visitors of Rome. 5 stars!
Allessia was wonderful. She accommodated my daughters dietary restrictions, was kind, informative and easy going.
Stefano was very knowledgeable, not only about the food, but history of Rome. Nice selection of foods to try. Highly recommend.
Alessia was a wonderful guide. She was very passionate about the food, knowledgeable about it's history, and preparation techniques. She was pleasant, and extremely personable. I really enjoyed the Roman Pizza which was warm, and incredibly tasty. The turamusu was a pleasant surprise, it was delectable with each spoonful leaving you wanting more.
Alessia was amazing! Her choices of restaurants and food were great! We had the following foods/drinks at these restaurants: Antico Forno Roscioli - Roman pizza La Taverna del Ghetto - Jewish artichoke (amazing!) Mami Supplì - suppli Two Sizes- tiramisù Caffè Sant' Eustachio- coffee Alessia was very knowledgeable about the food, but also the history of Rome. It was the perfect ending to our time in Rome!
This tour was simply amazing! To start, our guide, Luca, was absolutely fantastic. He was down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and incredibly patient throughout the experience. He was also very mindful of our schedule, as we had another tour booked shortly after this one ended. Our entire group thoroughly enjoyed spending time with him—we honestly could have spent the whole day together! The food was outstanding, and each stop was more unique and delicious than the last. Luca was extremely knowledgeable, sharing the history behind both the restaurants and the dishes we sampled, which made the experience even more enjoyable. This was easily one of our favorite tours in Rome. I highly recommend it to any food lovers looking to experience authentic Roman street food and local cuisine. It’s an experience you won’t want to miss!
Don't eat before the tour! We enjoyed many local delicious foods and were happy to enjoy the walk and history before each taste!
We had a fantastic evening with our guide Stefano. The food was great but it was way more than a food tour! We learned so much about old town Rome and experienced less touristy spots. Our guide was knowledgeable and engaging. It was an evening to remember! Highly recommend!
Mauro was an excellent guide! Very kind and informative.
CARLA IS SO KIND!!!! She is such a friendly guide and she brought us to some excellent locations. Very knowledgeable and funny!
We loved this tour! Alessia is very knowledgeable about food, she even has a professional background in it! She took us to some great spots and the food was all delicious of course. It seemed very important to her that we have an authentic experience, which I appreciated. Highly recommend this tour!
This was an incredible experience! We had the opportunity to taste some of romes authentic foods we otherwise wouldn’t have found. Our guide Carla was fantastic. We had a great time and would recommend to any new to the city.
Excellent guide, great food, great experience. Our guide was very kind and knowledgeable.
Luca was a wonderful guide—he was knowledgeable and funny and we enjoyed our time with him and all the wonderful food!
Really enjoyed the evening having great food and wine. Almudena was fantastic in providing the tour! We got to experience what thee locals do.
We had a great night with wonderful food guided by Barbara who was all the time very attentive to our needs and doubts. We had a lot of fun. The food was great especially the tiramisu. I’d recommend this for anyone traveling to Rome
We had a great time. Barbara was an excellent guide. She took very great of care of us and explain everything along the way. She interacts very well too.
We did the tour the first night we were in Rome. Luca did an outstanding job taking us to a variety of places to try the local cuisine. He was so knowledgeable about Rome’s history giving us many interesting facts. Luca was so polite and helpful. We would recommend this food tour to anyone wanting a “taste of Rome”. Thank you Luca
Besides the tasty food, we went to other interesting places. The guide explained us everything in detail.
Luca was an amazing guide through out our tour. All food choices were awesome. My kids and I had so much fun.
A fantastic experience, well worth sharing with friends or family. Thanks to Almudena, who accompanied us and explained many interesting facts about Roman cuisine. Highly recommended.
Barbra did such a fantastic job showing us around and picking out the perfect food for us to taste! She was very welcoming and made the whole experience lively and enjoyable. She shared so much detailed information about the history of the buildings and culture of the food. Plus she was amazing to converse with! Absolutely loved Barbra and so happy she was our guide.
Excellent experience. Knowledgeable and friendly guide. Great food
We had a lovely, albeit in the rain, street food tour with Carla the other evening. 5 stops were included, all were hidden gems that we would have struggled to find on our own. From pizza, to cheese & ham sharing board to tiramisu & coffee. And wine thrown in too. Carla was wonderful, she expertly guided us between stops, with interesting antidotes along the way. Would thoroughly recommend these tours
We had a private tour of the area trying some hidden spots. The food was amazing and filling. Certainly didn't need for anything more. A delightful way to spend a special evening. Thanks to Barbara for showing us around.
Our family had a wonderful time with Barbara, who shared with us her knowledge and love of Rome and showed us places we would’ve never found on our own. We were delighted to try the local cuisine and get to see sites and hear stories that we would’ve missed. Had we not booked the tour and not had Barbara as our tour guide.
We did the Ultimate Street Food tour immediately upon arriving in Rome. It featured spots close to our hotel, giving us multiple places to visit again. Our guide, Luca, was very personable as well as informative—loves food and dogs just like we do. The places we stopped were a nice mix— we learned about specific local foods as well as the history of the establishment. . Each was prepared for our arrival with tasty items and their own ambience—no ‘cookie cutter’ locales here! I would definitely recommend this tour and would do this tour again.
