About this tour
A three-hour private food tour through Rome's neighbourhoods, stopping at four carefully selected venues to taste pizza, pasta, gelato, coffee and pastries.

What to expect
Expect a leisurely stroll through one of Rome's less-touristy neighbourhoods with your guide setting the pace. At each stop—whether a neighbourhood pizzeria, a pasta specialist, a traditional gelateria, or a corner café—you'll sample a small portion and take time to actually taste what you're eating rather than rush through. There's flexibility to linger in piazzas between tastings, watching daily life unfold. By the end of three hours, you'll have experienced how Romans genuinely eat, not a packaged version of it.
Good to know
Gratuities aren't included. Any food or drinks you order beyond the four scheduled tastings are your own expense. The tour is fully wheelchair accessible, and prams, strollers, and specialised infant seats are available if needed.
