See Rome through the eyes of local as you taste iconic foods at the family-run businesses that do them best. From freshly fried delicacies, a local craft beer tasting, and a make-your-own spritz experience on a private rooftop in Trastevere, you'll see and savor it all in the company of an expert foodie guide. Along the way, you’ll discover how to eat like a Roman and learn why simple and fresh really is best.
Your experience begins in the old Jewish Quarter, one of Rome’s best neighborhoods for foodies. First, you’ll sample the famous Jewish-style fried artichokes, which you’ll eat standing up in the traditional way. Then head to a local bakery to sample an unexpected and delicious sweet treat that represents the Jewish Quarter’s rich cultural heritage.
After that, you'll make your way into the historic center (Centro Storico) where you'll pick up your next street food bite: freshly fried codfish from a beloved local hole-in-the-wall, washed down with a glass of wine.
No Rome food tour would be complete without suppli, the Eternal City's delightfully addictive fried balls of rice. Your guide will lead you to a friendly shop run by a family originally from Naples, where you'll try both a freshly fried suppli and a Neapolitan take on a donut to experience the best of both worlds.
Next, at a hidden gem craft beer bar, delve into the world of Roman brewing with a tasting of locally crafted beers, each imbued with distinctive flavors and stories. Afterwards, you'll cross the Tiber River into Trastevere and indulge in a typical Roman finger food from a beloved eatery.
Finally, as the sun begins to set, you'll follow your guide to a private rooftop for a delightful finale: crafting your own Spritz against the backdrop of Rome's skyline. With panoramic views and a toast to good company, say "cin cin" to an unforgettable culinary journey through the Eternal City.
