Overview

Today, the historic center of Rome is packed with eateries. Unfortunately, many of them are a far cry from the authentic food that real Romans know and love. That's not the case on this food tour, where you'll see Rome through the eyes of a local. Join us for a moveable feast through Rome's historic Jewish Quarter and Centro Storico as you try iconic Roman bites at family-run businesses, enjoy a guided local craft beer tasting, and make your own spritz on a private rooftop in Trastevere. Along the way, you'll learn the unwritten rules of eating like a Roman: what to eat, how to eat it, what to drink along with it, and so much more.

What's Included

  • Decode Rome’s centuries-old traditions with 8 food tastings and 3 drinks from 7 small businesses in the Jewish Quarter and historic center. Enough food for a full dinner.
  • Step into the small, family-run businesses that Romans have loved for generations, still thriving despite ongoing gentrification in the city center.
  • Be among the few tourists in Rome with access to a private rooftop in Trastevere as you make your own Spritz and take in the stunning Roman skyline and St. Peter's Basilica.
  • Try Rome’s best supplì at a family-run shop that proudly marries their Neapolitan heritage with the flavors of Rome.
  • Get a crash course in Italian craft beer with a tasting at a premier shop.
  • Discover the influence Rome’s Jewish community has had on local gastronomy as you taste the famous fried artichokes and kosher baked goods.
