Cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Jennifer was an excellent guide and gave us some great background to the area whilst choosing some wonderful food for us to sample. Lots of new things to try and certainly plenty to eat. First class.

The Tour to Pick
Calline_B, Feb 2020
Jennifer was amazing as our tour guide for Trastevere! Her knowledge of both Italian and American language, customs, and food made this tour spectacular! She taught us words and phrases that are actually used, and really helped us find true Italian restaurants (not tourist spots) for our stay in Rome. The selections she chose for us to sample were all delicious and the places she took us to were rich in tradition and community. Just spectacular; Thanks so much, Jennifer!
Danielle is wonderful and the place is magical

we are not foodies, and yet we enjoyed the place so much. Trastevere is a must see and Daniele a must have. he is most charming and friendly, and has a temperament to make everyone happy no matter what age. my dad mom, me my son. he is truly informative, adapts to each person, and patiently walks through the place with stories and laughter. absolutely delighted.

Gregor A, Oct 2017
This was an excellent tour. We were the only people on the tour and Andrea was very informative about the food from the various regions. It was also great to meet the local owners and people who take pride in their products. We took the morning tour and after all the samplings we could not eat lunch. Would definitely recommend this tour as it helps you find your way around the streets of Trastevere and also good recommendations of where to eat.

Deborah M, Sep 2017
Awesome! Fab guide -- Daniele was so fun. Delicious food, wonderful area to walk around and enjoy and something we'll tell all our friends to do when they visit Rome! We loved it was a small tour in our case personal for just the two of us versus larger tours similiar in nature we ran into. Such fun! You won't regret going on this tour.

Juan d, Jun 2017
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and tailored it to our small group of 3. Jennifer, our guide, showed us stores frequented by locals. The availability of cooked foods as well as deli shops, artisanal olive oil, balsamic vinegar and the oldest bakery in the area was delicious and impressive. Farmers market was still open at noon and tasted fresh mozzarella with sweet tomatoes. Along the way Jennifer pointed out historical sites.
Just to clarify for only one star...
shrkfans, Jun 2017
Just to clarify for only one star, I felt that our guide was great and very passionate about the food and the area. However in the description of this tour it states we would visit a historic inn and try some delicious pastas accompanied with Italian wine. This did not happen. I understand that sometimes tours may need to be changed but it should have been changed with a like experience. As it was we tasted snacks, not food! Very disappointed that the pasta stop and wine was omitted from our tour and feel that Viator misrepresented this tour! I probably won't be booking tours through Viator again.
FUN, FUN, FUN!!!! It is very hard...
Janet_C, Mar 2017
FUN, FUN, FUN!!!! It is very hard not to love the Roman cuisine, Visiting the small shops, family owned for generations, and learning the history of Roman specialties makes eating that cuisine that much more satisfactory. We visited 5 or 6 different establishments and were treated to 10-12 tastings - cheese, meats, olive oil, pastry, gelato, you name it. Just delicious and enough to satisfy us for dinner. Our tour guide Jennifer lives in Trastevere and knows the neighborhood and food like only a resident can. She was superb!

sally_U, Oct 2016
Our guide Jennifer was a delight. Very knowledgable and took us to interesting places we probably would not have found or taken the time to visit on our own. We ate and sample many delicacies. The Jewish bakery in the Jewish Quarter served a hot pastry that we consider to be one of the best things we've ever tasted. Jennifer filled us in on lots of the culture, way of life, and history as she lead us from one delicious place to another.

buddyboy, Oct 2015
We had so much fun. Andreas was so informative and actually took us 'off tour' to show us some of the local sights. The food was good and we felt we had a true Roman food experience. At the end of our stay we wanted to find time to revisit the Gelato shop because we couldn't find any better in Rome!

PAUL J, Sep 2015
A great tour of the Trastevere area with fantastic stops for snacks along the way. Andrea was a superb host and only too willing to give great insights not only on the food but also local area and history. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Amy B, Sep 2015
The best tour we've done ever had. Sylvia our guide was on time, informative, interesting and fun. We went to little places we never would have found on our own sampling everything from Farm to table bruchetta with fresh tomatos, zucchini and wonderful cheeses with honey and spicy fig jams. Absolutely recommend it and we will be back next year for certain.
