We recently did an evening tour with Giorgia and felt an instant connection from the start. Giorgia was a wealth of knowledge on not only the food culture of Roma but also the rich layers of history it was built on. We were treated to some special service from many popular spots that had people lining up to dine outside. Stopping to learn about ancient ruins and the meaning behind many of the religious symbols along the way. All of our questions were answered and after finishing of with a delicious gelato we were left feeling full and happy. We would thoroughly recommend this tour and be sure to ask for Giorgia a true Italian.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Rome Trastevere Food Tour at Twilight, with our guide Leonardo. It was amazing - the food was great - 7 or 8 stops at different restaurants and delis, including multiple courses and wines. And Leonardo was the best host - extremely knowledgeable about food and wine, as well as being very engaging and personable. We highly recommend if you want a fun evening exploring the food and wines of Italy, in beautiful surroundings!

This was honestly the best tour. Our guide, Leonardo, was outstanding! We had a wonderful time learning the history of Trastevere as we visited a wide variety of historic sites. The food and drink at each stop were delicious. Leonardo was funny and entertaining but also kind and attentive to each member of our very large group. I would highly recommend this tour!

This tour is highly recommended. We toured with Katherine. Her knowledge of the local cuisine, history of the food, and general knowledge of Italy was awesome. The pasta we made and ate… let’s just say we are now ready for Beat Bobby Flay.

Did an amazing tour with Amin! The group was a total of 6 tourists, and we were from around the world. The food was great at each place, and you won’t leave hungry. Plenty to drink as well. Accommodations were made for me, as I don’t drink alcohol, and I didn’t feel left out at all! The tour guide and the company were the highlights of the trip. I highly recommend this tour and highly recommend Amin as a guide! It is a great introduction to the city! Thank you for such an amazing time!

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!
