Tour Description

Your private Trastevere food tour introduces you to the vast variety of food and drink the Eternal City has to offer. Sample sumptuous local delicacies including steaming supplì (fried rice balls oozing with creamy mozzarella), bite into Roman baccalà (fried cod – think English fish and chips but so much better) and tuck into some beloved taglio al forno, topped with seasonal hams, vegetables, or cheeses.

All that culinary indulgence can be hard work. Which is why you’ll build up an appetite exploring Rome’s stunning center with your local guide. The tour’s highlight is Trastevere: Rome’s most romantic neighborhood. Characterized by its worn cobblestone streets and ivy-coated pastel-colored buildings, it is the most authentic place to try Cucina Romana – typical Roman food – which involves so much more than the usual Italian fare of pizza and pasta.

A gastronomic adventure through the heart of the Eternal City

Guided by a passionate food and wine expert, in this Trastevere food tour you’ll discover the most exquisite food Rome has to offer. You’ll start the action at Piazza Trilussa. Nestled next to the Tiber, the square is characterized by winding streets that jut from its perimeter and lead into the heart of Trastevere.

After sampling food in several locations, we’ll sit and relax for dinner it a romantic trattoria. Only now do we move on to the meal, which traditionally starts with pasta. There’ll be a generous selection to choose from, including classics such as Cacio e PepeAmatriciana, and the renowned Roman classic – Spaghetti alla Carbonara.

Indulge yourself in sweet treats at the end of the evening

Our foodie guides are all experts in Italian food and wine. Throughout your food odyssey through Trastevere, they’ll navigate you through understanding the complexities of Italian culinary culture as you munch your way through the finest food Rome has to offer.

Wonderful food to try in a unique neighborhood in rome

This tour was a wonderful experience in the Trastavere neighborhood of Rome, which felt out of the tourist areas and made the experience feel more authentic. The neighborhood is vibrant and bustling, and the walking (which we did quite a lot of) played a huge part in the enjoyment. But the food-wow! We tried two different kinds of pizza, one with potatoes on it (yummy!). So, so good. We tried an unusual battered and fried spaghetti on a stick, which was a delicious appetizer. We had an interesting street food that was some sort of fried popover with cheese at the center. We stopped at a delicatessen with amazing roasted pork and prosciutto. We dined at a Trattoria that served us an amazing pasta dish with wine (most of our group doesn't drink but it was available). The final course- delicious gelato done authentically (not the poofy gelato with air pumped into it for tourists). Our guide was a young man with great enthusiasm for all the foods and made the evening so much fun. If you are going to Italy you must do at least one food tour like this. We did another food tour in Verona which was very different from this one but both incredibly informative and fun. Foods tours are a great change of pace from the history/museum/archaeological tours, and I highly recommend this one!
