This experience is a must for food lovers traveling to Rome and looking for unique and hard to find local spots. The places they take you to would be almost impossible to find or get into without some serious local connections. Giuseppe was our guide and he was super knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor and made the experience super fun. My wife and I live in NYC and actively seek quality food. We had the best burrata we’ve ever eaten at da Enzo on this tour. We ate there before the restaurant was open to the public and when we left, the line was around the block, and for good reason! You also get a tour of a 2000 year old wine cellar at Spirito Di Vino, which was incredible. Everything else was top notch and you also get to meet some cool people along the way. 10/10, will do this again if/when we come back to Rome!

Valeria was an excellent host. The most favorite stop was of course the gelato. However, the Restarante Spirito di Vino was absolutely the best and the wine cellar was fantastic. Enzo's was awesome. Best organic extra virgin olive oil I have ever tased. Norcineria was absolutely delicious with the white pizza & pork.

Come hungry for one of the best food tours in Rome. I had the best time on this food and walking tour! The guide, Jean Luca, was so much fun, and the group we had included families, couples, and solos, so by the end of the tour we felt like family. We laughed and learned and ate so much food that by the end we were completely full. Definitely come hungry!!
