Amazing food and Guilia was such a lovely guide. It’s a great time to see Rome (post lockdown, less tourists), and the stops on the tour are well chosen. I won’t give away the food choices, but they’re all fab! If you’re a real wine fan, the tour is outweighed by food (just two wines), but otherwise I’d highly recommend it.Alexandra was great very friendly knowledgeable and had an answer for every question I had the group was real fun to hang out with I felt like I was in my city with friends

Alecandra was a great host! This was a very funny evening. It was raining that night but places were not crowded. All the shop owners seemed happy to see her with guess. We had everything from appetizers to pasta to pizza to two different desserts! Portion sizes were generous And accompanied with wine and beer! Alexandra was personable and gave historical and cultural perspective on many sites and restaurants. She was up-to-date on current events and pop culture. I would highly recommend!The best tour we had on our trip to Italy! Great combination of walking tour, history and fabulous food and drink tastes. So good we went back to two of the restaurants we were taken to because the flavours were so delicious!

My wife and I did the tour and it was excellent. The group was very small - just two couples. Our guide, Maria, was wonderful. Very knowledgable about Rome, the food we tried and the areas we explored. The food was plentiful and we were all joking (or 1/2 joking) about being full after the first few stops. My advice - show up hungry!
