Had a wonderful time on the Twilight Trastevere tour! The tour guide, Toni, was absolutely awesome. She was so informative, personable, and at each stop she seemed to know every staff member as a friend. The food was great, the history was great, the "what to watch out for" and general Rome tips were the best. The group we were with was great to speak with. And by the end we were so full! I would definitely recommend this tour to a friend, and would reserve another tour in another European city after this!

Davide was an incredible guide!
We joined his food tour and cooking class, and it was such a memorable experience from start to finish. We began with a visit to a local shop to pick out our ingredients, where Davide shared the rich history and traditions behind each one, plus a few delicious tastings along the way!
Then we headed to the kitchen to make his grandmother’s pasta recipes, fettuccine and ravioli, completely from scratch. And of course, we got to enjoy everything we made! Absolutely delicious!
Highly recommend booking this experience with Davide. It’s the perfect way to immerse yourself in pasta, tradition, and fun!

We enjoy local food tours and found this tour with Walter (from Australia) to be interesting and very informative. Walter is also a professional chef so not only did he provide interesting details of the historic areas as we walked but also gave a lot of great insight of the food and cooking techniques. Would we tour again with Walter, YES!, without any hesitation. You definitely should book a tour with him because he is so good!

Eating Europe is the way to go!!! Learned so much history, ate very good food, and my group was so fun! Marita took such good care of us. Love her humor and knowledge. My favorite part was at the end when she went over everything and everywhere we ate. I’m considering trying out other tours with them while I’m in Italy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Shout out Marita!

This was a wonderful tour that gave you just enough food and drinks at each location with history and or context to add a level of appreciation vs walking up to the place on your own. Adding to the food and wonderful environment was our guide Leo (Leonardo). He was a wonderful knowledgeable guide with great tips on local beer stop to hit up after the tour. He gave guidance leveraging his years of working with craft beer for 2 great stops that have such variety it was our next stop after the tour. Worth booking for the whole experience and knowledge that's hard to get outside of personal interaction.

Miri is fabulous! We had the best time exploring Travastere. That porchetta stop and the ‘King’ can’t be missed. You get to go VIP pass to super fun places (Da Enzo in particular). It was my boy-friend’s first good tour ever and he was impressed with how much he learned along the way in addition to the excellent food & drink!
