Wonderful Food Tour of Rome
My family did a food tour of Rome with Claudia and we thoroughly enjoyed it! It was a great introduction to Rome, and we meandered through the streets of Rome and tasted the most delicious local food and drinks, including delicious Roman pizza, Supplì - a well known fried Roman street food made from rice and mozarella, the best coffee we've ever had in our lives, creamy Maritozzo buns, porchetta, and the most delicious antipasto and cheeses. We were definitely full and very contented by the end of it! Claudia was friendly, informative, and she works in the food industry, so she was the perfect guide. She was kind enough to recommend other food places to try in Rome and other cities we were visiting on our trip. Claudia's tour also included some history of Rome, including a walk past the ruins of Largo di Torre Argentina where Julius Caesar was assassinated, Piazza Navona and a quick visit of the magnificent Sant'Agnese in Agone Church - truly magnificent. We loved our time with Claudia and definitely recommend this tour to others!

Great family food tour with Nico!
We would definitely recommend Nico for any tour. We had alot of different food tastings, on a sunday evening was a flexible Tour because not everything is open on a Sunday. Our teenagers had a lot of fun and could ask all questions they had for Nico; humor and flexibility and alot of knowlage obout Rome. We would recommend this tour to everyone!

Great experience!
We absolutely loved spending time with Federica on our first night in Rome. She is charming and very knowledgeable about the local food and beverage scene. We got to see a side of the city we would not have gone to otherwise and got to immerse ourselves in the vibe.
