Jewish Ghetto and Trastevere Food Tour | Private

Tour Description

Our Jewish Ghetto and 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. Your Jewish Ghetto and Trastever food tour takes you through two of Rome’s most authentic neighborhood. Characterized by its worn cobblestone streets and ivy-coated pastel-colored buildings, these two river-straddling quarters are the most authentic places 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, you’ll discover the most exquisite food Rome has to offer. Your private Trastevere food tour starts in the Jewish Ghetto, the beating heart of the historic center, just a stone’s throw from our first food stop, before moving on to other important foodie neighborhoods in Rome.

Next, we”ll visit the stunning square of Campo de’ Fiori, stopping off at a Rome’s best-loved butcher’s, before crossing the river to the bustling, trendy neighborhood of Trastevere.

Enjoy fine Roman dining in a traditional trattoria

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 Pepe, Amatriciana, and the renowned Roman classic – Spaghetti alla Carbonara.

Why limit ourselves to pasta though when there’s so much Roman cuisine to choose from. Rich, meaty dishes like Coda alla Vaccinara and thin and crispy side servings of Carciofi alla Giudia combine to create an unforgettable meal. Accompanied, of course, by fine local wines.

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 the Jewish Ghetto and 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.
