Best experience so far. Amazing food and tour. Plenty to eat and Drink. Tour guide , Maria was extremely knowledgeable and informative. She shared her knowledge of history and food openly. Walking was well intermixed with time to sit and enjoy. Group was 16 and larger than expected but guide made sure we all could hear her

Must do tour
Timothy_P, Apr 2024
Andrea was GREAT. Very interesting and absolutely spectacular food and lots of it. The various flavours and types made it very interesting. Highly recommend as a must do whilst in Roma, Italia.
The tour was a highlight in Rome !
Ingrid_E, Apr 2024
Enjoyed the Fried artichoke, potato pizza, the sit down meal of various pastas at Pancrazio, but the highlight was the Tiramisu. Our guide Maria was informative, knowledgeable, and very friendly - she made the evening a great experience.
Local food tour
Sue_R, Mar 2024
A bit disappointing food choices. 3 types of pasta and two types of pizza is overkill. The guide Marco, was pleasant and tried hard to please his guests. Even those that were difficult to please and couldn’t eat the food due to food allergies. Nice wine selection, the beer was only 2 oz cup.
Just a food tour...no history of the Jewish Ghetto
Beth_M, Mar 2024
Disappointed that very little Jewish history was discussed if any. We were in the neighborhood and sad to learn nothing. Was just a food tour. He pointed out some things in the non Jewish areas which were interesting but nothing specially about the history of the Jewish ghetto. Guide was difficult to understand heavy accent and spoke softly. We all had trouble hearing him and more difficult as were in a bustling area and needed a guide who could project his voice. He was nice and we felt safe but just an average food tour.
Not to be missed and well worth the price
julie_G, Mar 2024
Excellent tour and on the advice from others on this site, we booked this tour on the day of our arrival which gave us insight into foods to try. Andrea and Matteo again excellent guides, engaging the group throughout the tour. Both guides are very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions from the group. Good variety of foods to try and quiet full at the end of the evening. Met three lovely American couples also which was a bonus.
Yummy food

Food was AMAZING and our guide was amazing also but it’s a lot of food the history our guide gave us was very informative
What a fun - and filling - evening!
Bruce_M, Feb 2024
Great food, interesting fellow tour members and a knowledgeable guide. A fun and tasty evening! We visited new areas of Rome I'd never seen before and tried foods I hadn't heard of (potato pizza anyone?). Would go on this tour in a heartbeat the next time I'm in Rome.
Skip It

We were scheduled for a Jewish Ghetto food tour. It got canceled a few days earlier due to illness of the guide. We were offered another tour that was scheduled the next night. We expected it to be the Jewish Ghetto tour but it turned out to be some other tour, “Flavors of something”. The guide was nice and trying hard but it was very unspectacular and the food was mediocre at best. We ate a total of 10 dinners in Naples and Rome on this trip and this was the least interesting of them all.
Rome Food tour

Engaging guide who took us all over the Jewish quarter. A lot of food at a variety of eating locations. Lots of walking and seeing areas we would not normally see.
Great food with a local guide
Joshua_D, Dec 2023
Our tour guide Maria was kind and easy to talk to. She got us generous portions of fantastic food and wine, including fried artichokes and eggplant parmesan. We dined in some really cool locations throughout the Jewish ghetto. She was also patient and accommodating of dietary restrictions and children in the group. The pacing was great and we tried a lot of different dishes.
Fantastic
Susan_P, Nov 2023

Great tour
LINDA_D, Nov 2023
Our guide was very informative and personable. Small group makes it easy to get around. The food was more than enough! Three and a half hours of food!
A must

More than expected
Jeffrey_W, Oct 2023
We had a wonderful time. Learned a lot and mixed that with a variety of tastings of food, wine and beer. Our tour guide explained the history in detail and didn't rush us through the experience.
Good tour with good food.
Aimee_B, Oct 2023
Good tour. Good food. A fun night. Our tour guide, Andrea, was good and thoughtful. He was very communicative when running late due to an emergency issue.
Highly recommend this tour!!! You will not be disappointed
Lori_T, Oct 2023

This was one of the best food tours I’ve ever done! Food was delicious and the guide was really nice.
Fantastic tour!
Roni, Sep 2023
Maria was outstanding! We had a wonderful time. Come hungry, plenty of food. We probably would not have gone to this area if we hadn’t taken the tour. We are going back tonight, beautiful and less hectic.
We’ll worth it
Stephen_W, Sep 2023
