From the first moment we met Luka - his energy, humor, deep knowledge - we were hooked and captivated for the next 3 hours. Best money spent in Rome. You are not just on a drinks/small plates tour - you are immersed with the genesis of all the cocktails and small plates..AND the history of monuments, landmarks and neighborhoods. You are on a journey with that fun friend..and better for it after saying goodnight. You may be tired; you may think you have tried enough dishes in Rome..but this is a guaranteed unforgettable evening. Unequivocally recommend. Grazie mille, Luka!

We took the Eternal Rome: Jewish Ghetto, Campo de' Fiori and Trastevere tour with a wonderful guide, Riccardo. He explained the history of each district and the food we tasted along the way. The food and drink was plentiful and the stops were well-spaced between walks so we were never too full. We had taken this tour during our last visit to Rome and Riccardo kindly called ahead to the restaurants so our menu was different this time. This is a great way to get a deeper dive into a city beyond the major tourist attractions. Do not eat before these tours!!!

The best time we learned so much! We had the most fun with Valentina learning about the meats and cheeses as well as the porketta at the meat shop and the wonderful wine tasting. Then we got into the pasta making which was much easier than I expected. We made fettuccine and ravioli and it was delicious! Most enjoyable and Valentina was very informative and knowledgeable.

One of the highlights to our trip to Rome, we have been on a few tours in Rome and we're a bit nervous for this but our host Dalia made the entire tour amazing and we had some fantastic guests with us.
For the food, it was a great selection of foods that we really enjoyed. As vegetarians we were catered for well, especially the final few stops. I would massively recommend choosing this tour and if you're lucky enough to have Dalia host you, you'll have an amazing time!
We travelled Trastevere and sampled the vest foods from the best locations and along the way learnt some fantastic history.

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.

This is the second time we’ve taken the Twilight Trastevere Food Tour! We had such a great time the first time that we signed up again with two other couples this time! It was wonderful! Martina was our guide and she was delightful! She was so personable and she knew so much about the area, the food and the wine! She made the evening so much fun for everyone! There were six stops and the food was amazing! We met so many nice people on the tour and we did a lot of eating, drinking and laughing! I can’t say enough good things about the tour, the food and our guide, Martina!

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!

We had a private walking tour of Trastevere with Giuseppe and it was AMAZING! We spent 4 fabulous hours walking, eating, drinking, and learning all about the lovely area of Trastevere. Every bite and every sip was better than the previous one. Peppe was funny, charismatic, and knowledgeable about all things Rome. Not only did we learn about the local food and restaurants, we also learned about Italian history and culture. No question was off limits. We would highly recommend a private tour because we got the VIP treatment from every restaurant and we had amazing conversations.

We had such a wonderful time during our pasta-making class with Leo and Marielle in Trastevere! From the moment we arrived, Leo made us feel welcome and created a fun, relaxed atmosphere. His passion for Italian cuisine and culture really came through, and he was incredibly knowable and engaging throughout the experience.
The class was hands-on, informative, and—most importantly—delicious! We learned how to make pasta from scratch, enjoyed some amazing food, and got to connect with others in a beautiful Roman setting. It was truly a highlight of our trip to Rome.
Highly recommend this experience with Eating Europe, especially if you get Leo as your guide. Grazie mille, Leo!
