This was a wonderful way to spend the day. Loved being able to see 3 very different parts of Roma while exploring the cuisine. Valeria was the best guide possible. She has so must history and knowledge to share. Not to mention all the YUMMY food we tasted at each and every stop. I even was able to buy cheese from Ruggeri in the Campo de Fiori, with her assistance. My favorite dish was the in Jewish Ghetto: Fried Artichokes.

A nice tour and good variety of foods on a sweltering evening! I really loved the sit-down at the Jewish restaurant.

What an amazing tour! We had Valeria as our guide and this tour was the highlight of our trip! Definitely recommend doing it in the early part of your time in Rome we did it our first day because she shares insights about what food is in season, tips on local Roman dishes, what to order in restaurants, how to pick the best restaurants and how to find authentic gelato. All the food we tried was absolutely amazing, and we went back to all the places from the tour other days during our trip.

Rain spoiled the day but that could not be controlled. Our guide, Francesca, was very knowledgeable and friendly. The pace was good however it would have been nice to have opportunities to shop at the stops we were visiting that felt a little rushed. I felt the tasting portions were very small at Ruggeri only 2 small pieces of cheese and one salami the size of a stamp. The guide did say that we could go back to the stores we visited but without a map it was hard to know exactly how to get back to those places. I would recommend providing an itinerary and map so that you can back-track if you wanted to at the end of the tour. We started in one place and ended in another with no directions on how to get back to where we were or addresses of the places we visited. I took photos so that I could Google them later but I would suggest providing tour details at the beginning of the tour with specifics about where we are going and a map.
