Best spent money and time in Rome

This was our favorite activity in Rome. Liis was super kind and made the whole experience really fun. The food was delicious and so was the prosecco. Learning about the food helped us enjoy it more. We highly recommend, best value for money in Rome. Liis made this experience memorable and amazing. Also, perfect opportunity to buy gifts for family at the end but we didn’t feel pressured at all. Thank you for the amazing afternoon!

Arrive hungry and pace yourself - it's all so good

Mr Husband surprised me with the Roman Food Tour because I was sad not to be able to do a food tour in Marseille. I've been on a few food tours, they're a great way to learn a new place. This one knocked it out of the park, thanks to our guide, Michael. Ours was a small group and the phenomenal wine loosened us up enough to socialize, which made the tour even more fun. I think I will dream about luxury Balsamic and fancy cheeses for the rest of my life. But let's get back to Michael. He is the consummate foodie professional - he knows his stuff, he's the perfect amount of entertaining and informative, he caters to people with any type of special need (my husband has a bad knee and the pace was never too fast or hard) and everyone at every establishment was happy to see him. Michael's tour was the absolutely perfect way to end our stay in Rome! Thank you x100!

Fun! Better than expected!

Giorgio was the BEST host and pasta chef! It was hosted at Il Segreto (restaurant by the Vatican, Via Candia, 71, 00192 Roma) and was way more fun than I counted on. We made tiramisu, pasta and I would consider it a MUST DO -- especially since we needed an AIR CONDITIONED activity while we were adjusting to the Italy time zone. Great value! Great people from all over the world. You will love it!

When turning up to these Tours you always wonder what you’re going to get. This tour was a delightful surprise full of an array of wonderful food, a great tour guide in Michael who was very entertaining, warm and knowledgeable. Each of the stops on the tour provided a delicious gastronomy adventure. I would definitely do again. Thanks Michael. Had a great time.

Experience the good Italian food and wine.

My friends and I were on “Rome - a food journey, food experience with food and wine”. We had happy Lucy as our guide who took us around and talked with compassion about the food and wine. Interesting and fun and above all very good food. Very nice! Highly recommended.
