Trastevere Food Walking Tour

Starts at ?                     

Do Trastevere like a local, complete with all the tastiest spots.

Italy is just as famous for its cuisine as it is for landmarks like the Colosseum and the Trevi Fountain. If you want to taste the best the country has to offer but you’re not quite sure where to start, you can’t beat a tour with a local who knows all the best spots. Our food walking tour takes place in Trastevere, Rome’s most bohemian district and home to some of its tastiest delicacies. You’ll get three hours to sample some of Italy’s best bites, so there’s no need to rush.

We’ll meet up at the Largo di Torre Argentina square and follow the tantalizing aroma of freshly-baked goods to your first stopping point, where you’ll enjoy a traditional Italian breakfast. You’ll learn that choosing and drinking coffee is a serious business in Italy, and you’ll also get to sample the best cream cornetti (croissants) in town.

Then, it’s straight to our next stop: The farm products market. Amid the colorful local delicacies and bustling activity, you’ll try a selection of quality cheese and meats, truffle and olive oils, spices, and vinegar. Basically, you’ll be living the dream.

After wandering through some of Rome’s most picturesque and tranquil streets, you’ll move on to the ultimate icon of Italian food: Pizza. Your guide will take you straight to the finest pizzeria in Rome to enjoy some pizza al taglio, all while learning about the fascinating history of pizza and how it’s made.

Finally — chin-chin — it’s time to raise your glass and let your feet up as you try three classic pasta dishes of various shapes, sizes, and sauces from a local chef.

You’ll end the day with gelato, the Italian ice cream also known as an edible work of art. This is found at none other than an original Roman gelateria, where each ice cream variety is still made without any artificial flavors or additives. Trust us — you can taste the difference.
