Before enjoying your gluten-free gelato, you’ll stop just outside the Pantheon, one of Rome’s most extraordinary ancient monuments.

Very pleasant guide. Gave a lot of onteresting information about gluten free food. And also about the history of the area we walked in. We spent a very pleasant afternoon. Will absolutely reccomend.
Thank you so much! It makes us very happy to know you had such a lovely time in Rome and felt well looked after along the way. Thank you for choosing us!
This walking food tour was my introduction to Italy, as I arrived a day early before my cruise, and it did not disappoint. As someone who eats strictly gluten-free but loves food and culture, I was thrilled to find a tour where I could fully participate without worrying about the consequences. Coming to Italy, I honestly expected to miss out on many of the country's culinary experiences, but this tour completely exceeded my expectations. It offered so much more than just great food. Rebekah was an exceptional guide—knowledgeable enough to explain the rich history behind each neighborhood, monument, and stop along the way, while presenting it in a way that was engaging, relatable, and never overwhelming. She was informative, personable, resourceful, and exactly the kind of guide I hoped to have on my first day in Italy. I left not only well-fed, but with recipes, local recommendations, and plenty of ideas for where to eat during the rest of my stay. I only wish I had another day or two to continue exploring Rome. Even if you're traveling with someone who isn't gluten-free, they would absolutely enjoy and benefit from this tour. I would happily do it again.
Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review! We are very glad this means a lot to us, this the feeling we want you to feel. We're so happy your first day in Italy started with us. It means a lot to know you left feeling confident, inspired, and ready to enjoy the rest of your trip. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Rebekah. We hope to welcome you back to Rome one day!

Just did a gluten-free walking tour and it was fantastic. Our guide, Maurizio, was super friendly, really informative, and shared loads of interesting history about Rome and Italy along the way. Every food stop was safe, delicious, and felt really thoughtfully chosen. We’ve never done anything like this before, but it was a brilliant way to explore the city and eat confidently.

Really enjoyed this tour as a family with 13 year old. The food was delicious and our guide Maurizio was awesome - so knowledgeable and friendly. Come hungry you get a lot of food. We did it later in afternoon and it was replaced our dinner. Food was all celiac approved. Great way to explore the city and enjoy delicious gluten free food.

This was a great way to learn about the Gluten Free food scene in Rome. Maurizio, our guide, was informative, funny and helpful, the perfect companion for a tour of Rome’s eateries. If you are a coeliac coming to Rome, book this tour. We both thoroughly enjoyed it and devoured some great food.

It means a lot to know you felt confident exploring the city’s food options while enjoying some of our favorite local specialties. We hope to welcome you back to Rome again soon!
This was the best GF food tour with a walking history tour thrown in on the side! Alessia was so friendly and engaging on what ended up being a private tour for my friend and I! She told us what to look for when choosing GF places to eat and how to know they were safe. She made sure we each were enjoying our food along the way! If you don’t know which pizza to go with on the tour- go with the sausage and broccoli- sounds odd, but it was sooooo good!!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! It was such a pleasure spending time with you both and sharing great gluten-free spots and local stories along the way. I’m so happy you enjoyed the experience (and that pizza choice was a winner!). Hope to see you again for more delicious discoveries!
