The was a fantastic experience! From the very beginning, I felt right at home. Giuseppe (our guide!) was super passionate and managed to connect everyone, despite our different ages and backgrounds. Each stop was an opportunity to discover the flavors and stories of Roman tradition. If you want to truly get to know Rome and have fun with great company, I highly recommend this tour! It’s an experience I’ll cherish! Thank you Giuseppe! 🥂

Guiseppe gave us a phenomenal tour! So much amazing information regarding the history of each location, and the food and wine choices were amazing as well! It felt like being walked around Rome by a long-time friend. Highly recommend this tour, and especially if Giuseppe is the guide. You can’t miss his amazing hair and personality!

Kat was an amazing guide! We had such a lovely time on this tour. We had a small group, only 6 people. We started at a cheese and meat shop, went to a local restaurant where we made and enjoyed two types of pasta and wine, and then finished with an amazing local gelato place. I would definitely book this tour again, we had a wonderful experience!

We participated in the golf cart food tour of Rome and we say this is a must do! Our tour guide, Luca Murphy, made the tour even better! Luca Murphy was absolutely charming, insightful, helpful, and lots of fun! This specific tour was highly recommended by a travel book we read and boy do we agree with the recommendation! We loved this tour because we knew we could see some interesting landmarks along the golf cart ride while learning about Rome through food...the gateway to any culture! The other reason we booked this tour was due their expert gastronomical guidance which could be trusted to steer us clear of the "tourist trap" restaurants who prey on tourists by offering mediocre, non-authentic food at exaggerated prices. But, we knew we could count on this particular food tour because they bring you to some of the most amazing, family-ran restaurants where a lot of locals eat so you know you aren't getting tourist-trap food. Food, drink, Rome scenery, and riding a golf cart through Rome is a fantastic way to experience Rome! And if you lucky enough to get Luca Murphy, then you will be with one of the best tour guides we've ever met in our entire lives!

Davide was an excellent tour guide! He was personable, knowledgeable, and so much fun! Everything we ate and drank was unbelievable, and I would recommend this to anyone traveling to Italy. As someone with a food allergy, he was very accommodating and helpful to ensure that my experience was safe and delicious! 10/10 !

We typically go on a food/beverage tour whenever we travel to someplace new, and this was the best one we have ever been on hands down! Fabio was nothing short of fabulous! From the moment we boarded the golf cart, he made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable - as if we had been established friends and were just hanging out together. He had the perfect balance of humor and professionalism, and we loved all the knowledge and history he shared with us throughout the tour. The variety of food we tried was PERFECTO! My only complaint is that my stomach wasn't big enough to hold it all - there was absolutely no skimping on this tour! ;) I would highly recommend!

This tour exceeded our expectations!! Roberta was so patient with teaching us some Italian and our attempts at speaking it. She gave great explanations of all our locations and the history that went along with it. When we asked her to write down what we were eating she was so kind to do that. This tour will leave you full of some of the best Roman food, gelato, wine and beer. Don’t think twice about booking this one. It’s well worth it!
