Excellent

Definitely the highlight of my time in Rome. Food is such a quintessential part of our essence as people/community/society. The stories and history behind how the dish came about brought much life and meaning to it. I certainly recommend this tour to all the foodies out there. Our guide Manuela, was the life and soul of the session. It felt like the neighborhood gal is sharing her food joints with you! Thoroughly enjoyable!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Tastes and Traditions of Rome: Testaccio Food and Market Tour. Our guide, Aurelio, was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend time with. We sampled a wide range of food including breakfast and lunch, along with a trip to the amazing Testaccio market, visiting various food stalls. With every stop, we fed our minds as well as our bodies. This is our first experience with Devour City Experiences and we are still talking about it!

We really enjoyed the tour and have a better sense of food in Rome, and a full belly. Fernada is a great storyteller and I appreciated her interest each of her clients soas to give us tips on how to get the most on our visits. Fernada was a great guide. Grazie.

This was a great food tour. Food was just right (but still a lot) and you will not leave the tour hungry. Our guide Gulia was nice and very knowledgeable and we experienced food that was not common but still “molto buono” which we enjoyed. Another good thing to note is that the area is not crowded and was a nice break from other busy areas of Rome
