Roberta was a wonderful guide for the walking tour. Very knowledgeable and gave us lots of recommendations of where to eat near our hotel for vegan food. All the food was delicious and we got to walk down some beautiful streets in between stops. Thank you Roberta!Perfect start to our time in Rome

We had an amazing time on the food tour with Roberta! She was very welcoming and easy to talk to. We booked the tour right at the beginning of our holiday, so we were able to go back to the places we visited with her (pizza rossa was our go to breakfast!). Also she gave us further restaurant recommendations which we loved! The highlight for us was the cooking class with Roberta. In her own apartment with a beautiful kitchen we cooked delicious pasta, fried zucchini, farinata and even prepared a delicious light tiramisu. Thank you again Roberta!Amazing Food Tour and Cooking Class

My husband and I had a fabulous time with Roberta, she was very fun, passionate and knowledgeable. We loved the small plant based eateries or bistros she showed us, from the yummy pomegranate juice at the market to the chocolate gelato with whipped dream. OMG so good! Thank you Roberta for a fun tour!! 😊Fantastico

I purchased the Vegan Tour with Roberta for my wife, who is vegan, as a birthday trip for our first trip to Rome. I read the reviews and had a very good feeling about Roberta and this experience, but the result was far better than I’d even hoped. The food was great— simple, small enough to not overdo it, but nourishing enough to be satisfied— with beautiful, fresh ingredients that prove vegan food is at its best when it is at its most fresh. Roberta was like an old friend, warm, charming yet familiar, and welcoming at every turn. She and my wife seemed like kindred spirits, and it was a joy watching them stroll the streets and alleyways of Rome. And that is the final, but perhaps greatest, part to this day experience that we absolutely loved: the walk. Roberta took us down side streets and alleyways of her own discovery that offered beautifully picturesque settings that felt more like walking through a postcard than a real place. Iconic archways, vines crawling up and lilting away from stone walls, vespas parked like movie props. It was heaven. Needles to say, 10/10. Don’t skip it. An Absolute Joy

We had a fabulous vegan food tour with Roberta - a definite highlight of our trip to Rome. She was super gracious to accommodate our preferences and highly knowledgeable as a native of Rome. We loved that we were introduced to eateries and neighborhoods we hadn’t been to, and away from typical tourist places. We began the tour at an outdoor market and made our way to multiple eateries sampling delicious vegan foods that are part of traditional Italian cuisine. Roberta also kindly provided us with restaurant recommendations and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Such an amazing vegan food day! I cant recommend the tour enough - Roberta is an excellent tour guide and a lovely person!Friendly, warm & knowledgeable

Roberta was again a wonderful tour guide. After having an amazing food tour with her last year, I decided to book again with her and tried out her vegan tour with my my husband. We both loved the food presented to us on the tour as well as the conversations we had with Roberta as we passed from location to location. It was both informative and tasty! Would highly recommend Roberta for her vegan food tour or any other tour for that matter!Wonderful vegan food tour!

This isn't just a chance to sample some wonderful Roman vegan food (although that would be reason enough). It is also a great opportunity to spend some time with a lovely Roman! Roberta is knowledgeable, friendly, patient and full of information on Rome. I had the added pleasure of spending time with her during a proper Roman thunderstorm! I would highly recommend this tour!Fantastic and unmissable

The vegan foodtour with Roberta was very nice, enjoyable, and interesting! Beforehand I already informed her about my daughter's foodallergies and Roberta took great care, and made sure my daughter could have all the food at the stops during the tour, so that's very much appreciated! It was a very hot day, so we all took it easy and we just had a very enjoyable time ! Roberta is very kind, sweet, and had a lot to tell about Rome and the food ofcourse! We especially liked the tempura-fried artichokes and wine-cookies! Highly recommended!Lovely tour!

Roberta was such a great tour guide! We started off at a market, then wandered through the city trying local Roman foods. She was super knowledgeable about history of the city and I learned so much as we were waking around. We tried clementines, marinara pizza, fried artichokes, espresso, taralli, gelato, and ended with some wine on an island in the middle of Rome! Even after the tour, Roberta send so many recommendations of vegan spots in the city and asked how my trip was going which was so helpful and kind. Thank you so much! amazing tour of Rome!

As it so happened, we had the honor of being the first ever Vegan tour of Roberta in Rome :). The tour was very well organized, giving us a unique tasting of the great food Rome has to offer, Vegan style. Roberta made sure we enjoyed the time and also learned a bit about the city and the culture. Excellent English with a charming Italian accent, we also got some further tips for the rest of our stay. This was an excellent tour I would recommend to any vegan person visiting Rome!! The first cut is the deepest (Cat stevens)

Roberta is a great guide, informative and knowledgeable and the tour was just right. Great food, coffee and wine tastings and good company as well as a lot of information on Rome in general from a local who clearly loves and knows the city. It's a very good introduction to the many vegan food options Rome has to offer to the unsuspecting tourist 😆 Honored to be a part of the first vegan food tour! Loved it! 😍

I had so much fun on my personalized food tour in Rome with Roberta. She did such a great job of catering to my needs and wants for the tour… and the food was delicious! She also was a great tour guide in general… pointing out sites and explaining history along the way. Would highly recommend going on a food tour with Roberta if you have a chance! Wonderful food tour!

Roberta was great, and would highly recommend her to anyone. We booked a Rome food tour, but had some dietary restrictions. Roberta navigated those with ease and gave us such a great experience with different local specialties around some different neighborhoods. She was extremely communicative both before and after our tour; giving us solid advice on best days to book based on our interests and following up with tons of recommendations for our remaining time in Rome. This is far superior to any traditional group tours we’ve taken in the past, and encourage everyone to experience a more one-on-one experience like this with Roberta.Outstanding experience with a wonderful guide

Roberta is marvellous. She made us feel like friends from the beginning. Food tour ticks all the right boxes, especially the visit to Proscuitteria Cantina Dei Papi(pecorino with fennel). Rossa Alla Romana (Roman Red Pizza) at Roscioli also amazing. Excellent

Lena🇬🇧 United Kingdom

Roberta was an absolute pleasure! As a solo traveller to Rome she was welcoming and provided a friendly face in a new city. We had three hours 1:1 walking the pretty back alleys of Rome and trying lots of delicious treats. It was my favourite experience in Rome!Friendly & welcoming

Wesley🇲🇳 Mongolia

Roberta gave us an amazing food tasting experience around different neighborhoods in Rome. She took us to places we never would have found on our own and introduced us to Italian culinary treats we didn’t even know existed. She also took the guess work out of what restaurants we should eat at by recommending places that locals eat at and are off the tourist trail. She is also very knowledgeable about the history of Roma. Great experience!Fun afternoon with Roberta!

Ole🇩🇪 Germany

Roberta contacted us immediately after we booked the tour a couple of weeks ago to check for any special wishes and diary information. On the day of the tour she was early at the meeting point - finding her was easy. Then the tour started: after some small talk and information about the piazza where we met we indulged into the local food, starting with some fruits, followed by pizza Rosso, buffalo Mozarella, suppli, and many many more....The walks from one place to the next were filled with very useful information about Rome, food preparation and history. After the tour we received further hints for restaurants to explore on our remaining days in the city. Needless to say that those we as delicious as her choice of food during the tour. We became fans of her and can recommend her guidance to anybody!!! *** G R E A T *** - Roberta‘s 5***** food & history & sightseeing & hints & advises tour....

We had a private family tour with our kids and Roberta. Kids are 10 and 12. We walked through the city and visited some backyards and a hidden library that we would never have found/seen on our own. Very easy going and a lot of information on the side about the daily live in Roma today. We would always do it agin any time.Great walk through the city - off the beaten track

We had a beautiful afternoon with Roberta in November 6, 2019. Roberta is a nice, easy going and friendly person. We feel that we met an old friend rather than a guide. Our daughter likes her very much. Her english and knowledge about Rome is excellent. She took us to see the corner of a non tourist route in Rome. Shel also took us to have a good coffee, gelato and italian snack. We highly recommend Roberta to be your friend in Rome.. Thanks Roberta!!One nice afternoon with Roberta

Roberta is very enthusiastic, sweet and knowledgeable. We did the 10 Tastings Tour with her, and she worked hard to accommodate my cousin’s Celiac dietary requirements (no gluten) and also her pescetarian diet (no meat). What a challenge! Roberta did it with a smile and patience throughout the tour. Roberta was truly a joy. Our tour ended with hugs. I so appreciate the time she took with us to introduce her city. Roberta is an amazing guide

Fearga🇬🇧 United Kingdom

we did the food tour with Roberta, who was just lovely, very engaging, warm and funny. The tour was based around the Campo di Fiori area and introduced us to some places I hadn't been before (as a regular Rome visitor, that was an achievement!) and we tasted some fab Roman specialities - loved the fried food and especially loved the place we had the meat & cheeses will definitely return there. It was a great way to while away a few hours in Rome, learning a little and enjoying some lovely food with a true Roman - thanks Roberta.enjoyable time spent with a new friend

Rita🇺🇸 United States

Being with Roberta on a food tour is like grabbing a bite with a good friend - she's personable, kind, and knowledgeable. She managed our group of 6 with ease. The food in Rome is superb, but when you are experiencing it with an outstanding guide it's even better! Big "thank you" to Roberta for a memorable experience!Wonderful!

We had a great couple of hours walking with Roberta. She took us to some wonderful places we wouldn’t have found ourselves, where we tasted a variety of delicious sweet and savoury foods. The two hour tour was just right with two kids under 10. Our only regret is that we did the tour late in our visit to Rome so didn’t have a chance to revisit some of the cafes and eateries again. Thank you Roberta - this was a real highlight of our visit.Lovely experience

Meeting Roberta felt like meeting a long lost friend. She was very friendly and personable. She made sure that our food tastes were tailored to the foods we enjoy while getting to taste the authentic foods of Rome. Be sure to start on an empty stomach or you won't have room to try them all. She pointed out many places to potentially eat while in Rome and even gave us some tips near where we were staying. I would highly recommend Roberta as your guide. Thank you of great experience. :-) Amazing Food Tour

With both sweet and savory experiences, she definitely can find a place for anyone to enjoy. Thank you so much Roberta!!! Like going out with a friend!

Our family of four had a fantastic day with Roberta for our first day in Rome. Roberta was wonderful with both our son and daughter and the silence from them at each of the tastings was a great indication of how much they enjoyed the food. It was difficult for all of us to pick a favourite tasting at the end of the Tour as they were all so good. Can highly recommend Roberta.Our first day in Rome

Manuel🇩🇪 Germany

Roberta introduced us into the roman food culture. We had a great time enjoying a perfect selection of classic local food in places where also the inhabitants of Rome used to eat. Furthermore we learned a lot about the history of food and about food culture all over Italy. We definitely recommend this tour with Roberta ! Thanks again !Gorgeous Tour with a perfect Host
