Description

There’s no better place to dive into authentic Italian dishes and drinks than Rome’s Trastevere neighborhood. From enoteca to osteria, you’ll get a true flavor of what makes Rome’s cuisine so unique and delicious. Sample cured meats and cheeses from the region, local pasta dishes, an assortment of Italian wine, and Rome’s most beloved aperitivo cocktail. You’ll end the tour with an invaluable insight into exactly how to eat like a local for the duration of your visit.  (Note: If you choose the 6:15 tour time when booking, you'll enjoy a shorter experience at a lower price, with a spritz, suppli, dinner, and gelato included.)

Home to countless bars and restaurants, the picturesque neighborhood of Trastevere is the perfect spot for a fun night out in Rome. But it’s understandable to be a little overwhelmed by the sheer number of restaurants and bars here! On this tour you’ll step into the spots locals love best, tasting your fill of authentic food and drink along the way.    

Begin your evening with a glass of prosecco in hand at a relaxed neighborhood shop. Enjoy it with some delicious prosciutto and cheese for the perfect primer of what’s to come.   

Heading back out into Trastevere, you'll try a classic Roman street food at a local restaurant that's been doing it best since 1979.    

Your next stop is all about Italian drinks (which, of course, extend beyond just wine!). Step inside one of Trastevere’s most beloved bars—considered a treasure among generations of locals—and sip on a classic spritz as you hear more about Italian drinking culture.     

It’s time to discover the enchanting side streets of the neighborhood. Here lies a charming enoteca where the owner has curated everything with attention and care. Sample distinct wines from two unique Italian regions. Pair these with three varieties of bruschetta and hear more about why wine pairings are so important to truly enjoy your meal.     

Trastevere is the perfect place to sample authentic Roman pasta, which you’ll enjoy at the neighborhood’s most iconic family-run restaurant. And to really check off all the classics, you’ll try two types of rich Italian wines to go alongside your meal.      

Before saying goodbye, you'll make one final stop for a cup or cone of gelato at a local shop. The perfect way to wrap up an evening in charming Trastevere.
