One of my favorite things we’ve done in Italy! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and sociable. We had 7 stops altogether and everything we ate was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. It was really cool to be able to learn more about Trastevere and the history of the area. Would absolutely do this again, 10/10 recommend!!

Our eating tour was amazing! The food was delicious, and the wine was beautiful! Our guide Luca was so funny, and i surprised my husband on our last day in Europe with this tour, and he loved it! Luca also surprised us with a massive sparkle in Tira Misu as this trip was our honeymoon!

This tour was fantastic! Our Tour guide, Riccardo, was incredible. Down to earth, and knows his history! He also gave us the history of the foods and culture. We took the 6 pm tour and it ended right around 10 pm. More than enough food and drink. Loved everything about it. Highly recommend this tour with Riccardo if possible!

Valentina made our Eating Europe food tour truly unforgettable for me and my husband. From the moment we met her, she was warm, welcoming, and full of energy. Her passion for the local food and history was infectious—you could tell she genuinely loves what she does. She didn’t just guide us through the stops, she told stories, shared little-known facts, and made us feel like we were discovering the city with a local friend. Every bite tasted better thanks to the context she gave, and she made sure everyone felt included and taken care of. We both walked away with full stomachs and even fuller hearts. If you get the chance to take a tour with Valentina—do it. She’s a gem!

Come hungry for one of the best food tours in Rome. I had the best time on this food and walking tour! The guide, Jean Luca, was so much fun, and the group we had included families, couples, and solos, so by the end of the tour we felt like family. We laughed and learned and ate so much food that by the end we were completely full. Definitely come hungry!!

Jasmine was brilliant. We had a brilliant time and learnt so much! Making the pasta was so fun, but eating it was the highlight. Jasmine explained the flavours the sauces so well and took us on a lovely tour of the local norcineria for some tastings. The after-dinner gelato was also incredible. Highly highly reccomend. Thank you Jasmine.

Great walking eating tour in Trastevere Rome away from the bustling tourists. Luca “Murphy” our fantastic guide is very funny and warm. His lighthearted and humor simplifies how immensely intelligent he is with food and Rome. A must go especially if you are wanting time away from the tourist traps and a little part of Italy.

Our tour with Francesca was wonderful! She was delightful and charming and so fun to spend the evening with. We learned a lot about traditional Roman (don’t call it Italian!) dining. The places we visited were fantastic and I just wish I could have eaten more - it was all molto delicioso!

Walter provided an excellent twilight Trastevere Rome food tour. He was so knowledgeable about food and Italy in general. It was a good balance between history and food information (and how they’re related). He was very personable and great with relating to people of all ages. (He even navigated an unexpected thunderstorm) I would high in recommend his tours.
