Additional food and drink
Meet your guide at Piazza Farnese
Meet your group and guide at the fountain in the beautiful Piazza Farnese. This charming square, lined with quaint cafes and bursting with local life, is the perfect, picturesque spot to begin your culinary journey into the heart of authentic Roman food culture.
Roman Salumeria (Deli) tasting
Next, you’ll head to a family-owned deli, a local institution for over 100 years. You’ll sample expertly cured prosciutto and salamis, local cheeses, and regional wines, all while learning the secrets of century-old techniques from the family.
Traditional Baccalà (salted Cod)
After that, you’ll discover the history and flavor of baccalà, or salted cod. Your guide will share the fascinating story of why this Atlantic fish is a beloved local favorite in landlocked Rome as you enjoy this traditional street food favorite with another glass of local wine.
Sit-down three-course Roman dinner
Then, it's time to sit down and relax at a local Trastevere restaurant for an authentic three-course Roman meal. You’ll sample an appetizer, two popular Roman pasta dishes, and the famous Saltimbocca alla Romana (veal, prosciutto, and sage), all paired with local wines.
Digestivo (Limoncello)
No authentic Italian meal is complete without a digestivo. You’ll cap off your flavorful three-course meal with a delightful limoncello, a bright, citrus-flavored liquor long loved for its perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors.

Arvin made Rome so much fun! His passion for food and for sharing local secrets had us trying new things! And to have one of the guests have their “Happy Birthday” sung in opera was a real treat! I would highly recommend this experience!!
Very good

This was one of the highlights of my trip to Rome. Ilaria was a wonderful guide, giving us insight into the history of the city, the way Romans eat today, and the local food scene. I loved all of our stops, and I went back to two of them the very next day!

Our guide, David, took us to a few different places to sample local food before taking us to a restaurant in Trastevere. There we were served two different local pasta dishes as well as one meat dish. The food was delicious and David was a fantastic host giving us stories about the history of the city as well as the history of the food we enjoyed. This is a tour that I would highly recommend!
Local guide made our Food Tour AMAZING!

This tour was a highlight of our Italian vacation! Our tour guide, Federica, was so interesting and knowledgeable about her home town of Rome! The food and wine at each stop was absolutely delicious and the dinner and gelato at the end of the tour capped it off beautifully! We have already recommended this tour to friends traveling in Rome! Thank you, Federica!

I loved our tour. We learned a lot about the local foods. The mortadella at our first stop was out of this world amazing! Our guide brought great energy. We also stopped at some beautiful and popular landmarks and learned a bit of culture outside of the food topic.

This was a blast! Mario was knowledgeable, gave clear information and made a point of talking to all of us. He showed us a part of Rome we hadn’t discovered yet and introduced us to great new places and delicious food! Would highly recommend this tour!

The food was great and the walk through a new neighborhood was very interesting as we never thought to see that side of Rome away from all the tourists just the locals
