Alessia was lovely. The food stops were special and delicious. She gave us great suggestions and things to avoid.
We set this up with Gabriel, who was very helpful and accommodating. Our guide Luca was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about Rome's food history and brought us to some great hidden gem locations. My son and I had an amazing time!
Make sure you are hungry because you will taste a lot of wonderful food. Our guide Luca was fantastic. I highly recommend this food tour !!
We booked this not knowing much about Roman food. Gabi grew up in the area and knew exactly where to go and why. We got to experience food from all over Italy and even got recommendations of where to go on our visit to Venice. The food was the best and everyone we met was kind and enjoyed sharing their food with us. This is the trip for real foodies. Nothing trendy or over hyped. Just were real people get their fresh food and enjoy! I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone wanting a real local experience!
We had a fantastic food tour of Rome with Gabi. He has an exuberant personality, and an in depth knowledge of and pride in neighborhoods and cuisine in Rome. He took us to a wonderful food market where we sampled all kinds of foods typical of Rome, along with other stops. We had so much fun tasting everything and meeting and spending time with Gabi. Very highly recommend him!
We loved our tour with Gabi! He showed us so many tasty spots in the market and shared some local insights into Rome. We brought our 1.5 year old with us and Gabi was absolutely wonderful with her. Can’t recommend this tour enough.
This was our second Rome food tour with Gabi - loved the first one so much that we came back a year later. Gabi really went out of his way to make sure we experienced a really unique side of this wonderful city, and on our second tour made sure we had no repeats. I can't recommend Gabi's tours highly enough, they were both our absolute highlights in Rome. And in this city, that's saying a lot! Thanks Gabi!
A very authentic and memorable experience. It felt carefully curated, with high-quality food and real local stories.
We had such a good time on this tour. The food was delicious, but what made it special was Gabi’s personal touch.
Manuela made the experience fun, easygoing and very interesting. We enjoyed the food, the stories and the beautiful walk through Rome. I’d definitely recommend this tour
Amazing food tour! Everything was well organized, the tastings were excellent, and the guide made us feel very welcome.
This was one of the highlights of our trip to Rome. Great food, great stories, and a very relaxed atmosphere from beginning to end.
A great mix of food, history, and local culture. We left full, happy, and with a much better understanding of Roman traditions.
Gabi is a fantastic guide. He knows the city very well and shares it with passion, humor, and warmth. The food was amazing, highly reccomended food tour!
We loved every stop of the tour. The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the whole experience felt very personal and authentic.
Gabi was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about Roman food and culture. It felt like walking around the city with a local friend.
A truly wonderful and authentic experience in Rome. Gabriele guided us through hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own, offering a unique glimpse into the city’s real culinary culture. Every tasting felt carefully selected and genuinely local, far from the usual tourist spots. His passion, knowledge, and attention to detail made the experience even more special and memorable. Without a doubt, it was the highlight of our time in Rome. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the city in a more authentic and meaningful way.
Ours was a very small group. Just my wife and I. Our guide Manuela was very well acquainted with the area we were in and was able to give us a very detailed tour of the part of the city,Trastevere. She was personally invested with the area and the store owners to give us a uniquely personal experience.
Great guide, Manuela is knowledgeable about the history and the culture. The tour taught us a lot about the region, not just about the flavors and the delicious food of Rome.
This tour was recommended to me by my colleagues back home, and they were absolutely right! This was by far the highlight of our honeymoon in Rome. Luca was our tour guide and he was personable, knowledgeable, accommodating, and fun. He made sure to watch out for any food allergies, but also catered to specific food items we wanted to try (my cassata that I cant find ANYWHERE at home!!). If you want hidden gems and authentic Italian and Roman food, this is a must-do experience. Even outside the tour, Luca recommended local places for us to try, and every single one was a hit. We even returned to the market to purchase some of the local goods we had the chance to try. I would do this again and again if I could!
The tour was a great way to see parts of Rome we might not of visited. The food & beer we tasted along the way was great. Our guide, Luca, was fantastic. He took his time explaining things and was very flexible in how we did our tour.
Luca was our tour guide. He was super knowledgeable and friendly. Felt very welcomed and felt as though we were getting the local experience. Great experience and I recommend booking.
Luca took our family on an amazing food tour! The food, insights to the hidden gems and enrichment of everything we were eating with the history and background were fantastic! Highlight of our trip to Rome. Highly recommended! Our only regret is that we did not do this our first night so that we could revisit all of the wonderful places and foods over and over.
The food tour was a great way to start our trip in Rome. Luca was great and knowledgeable about the area, food history. We truly enjoyed it and would do it again. If you have a few hours and want to taste amazing food don’t hesitate to book.
We had Luca for this tour and he was really excellent. Gabi had advised him if our peanut / nut allergy and Luca tailored the tastings to ensure that our person had as many tastings as possible whilst keeping as safe as possible. We tried 20 year old balsamic, pizza, focaccias, suppli, wine, truffles, cannoli, granita, coffee and a few more, ending with gelato. Luca gave us much more of his time as he should, he shared his knowledge, what life is like in Rome and was charming and professional throughout. Highly recommend both the tour and Luca.
My girlfriends and I do one trip per year together. We love to do our small reunion trip as we all live in different countries and this year it was Rome. Apart from its beauty on every corner the big reason for us to choose Italy was FOOD!!! We booked a tour with Gabi and it was the best night of our trip! He listened to our wishes, accommodated to individual needs as one of us is vegetarian and another one is gluten free we are not an easy group to please :) But the selection of tastings and Wine was excellent and suited all of us perfectly! He even showed us a gelato place with very innovative flavours - so experimental! We loved it and 100% recommend:)
Tour in the heart of Rome made with passion. We tasted the best specialties of the neighborhood: pizza in a pan, supplì al telefono, and exquisite gelato while strolling through the enchanting alleys of Trastevere, where it is not difficult to still find people gathering in front of the bar to play cards. Through anecdotes, stories, and glimpses of neighborhood life, we spent an unforgettable afternoon. Highly recommended.
What can I say about Rome... wow! I was with two French friends and thought this food tour was perfect for discovering Rome through its cuisine! Wonderful experience, we were thrilled!
