Wonderful Food Tasting - We went to a variety of food tastings. It was well organized and our guide Maria was fantastic. The walk through Rome was wonderful. It was a great experience and would do it again

The best tour and guide we had in Rome! - Our guide, Fabrizia, absolutely made this tour special for us. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun! Expertly guiding us through the Jewish Ghetto and the Navona area with history mixed with traditional foods, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience! The 7 food stops across a wide array of appetizers, pastas, desserts and coffee was expertly curated. I would recommend this tour for anyone who love food and history - definitely a highlight of our time in Rome!

Excellent food adventure highlighting a fabulous exploration of Roman neighborhoods! - Exactly the Roman food experience you want! First of all, Maria is a consummate guide, friendly, knowledgeable, and full of wonderful information both historical and food related. Secondly, Maria deftly navigated our group to seven delicious and welcoming food locales with a great balance of standing and sitting. We experienced a beautiful evening with delicious and memorable food. We loved that we went from the Jewish District to Campo de’ Fiori, Piazza Navona to ending near the Parthenon. Overall, we highly recommend this evening food tour with Maria.

Wonderful experience combining food and history - A wonderful experience with an enthusiastic and well informed guide. The food was great, and combining it with beautiful scenery and fascinating history was the frosting on the torta.

Excellent overall experience - Our guide did a fantastic job. Not only was the food discussed, but we also got a lot of history. She was genuinely interested in sharing good information as well as answering any questions. The only thing I would suggest would be to have a handout of the eating spots we visited and location because we wanted to go back to go back for the pizza and were not able to remember where it was located. other than that, it was great

Best tour we've had in Rome - It was an excellent experience. Our guide was friendly, patient with our elderly legs, and so knowledgeable about the history as well as the food. And the food was wonderful. We would highly recommend the experience.

Inconsiderate tour guide ruined what should have been a nice tour - The tour guide was Frabricia. We were 3 older couples. Two walked slow, the third walked faster. The tour guide and the fast couple were walking 20 yards ahead of the other two couples the whole time. We were one of the slow couples; the other slow couple were 89 and 90 years old, and were struggling to keep up. I finally told the tour guide that this is a group tour, and she should keep the group together, not walk ahead and give the faster couple a private tour. She was sorry for the "misunderstanding", and said she wasn't talking about anything important with the fast couple. I called BS. Group tour 101, keep the group together. Address the whole group. As far as the content of the tour, for what we heard and for the parts we stayed for (we bailed after the pasta stop), it was OK. At night, it's nice as the area isn't as crowded, but needed to be careful as the cobblestones were slick from the rain that day. Note: This tour is a tour of a neighborhood called the "Jewish Ghetto". It is not a Jewish tour, per se. The food is not kosher. There is no visit inside the synagogue, etc. (We knew that, but the fast couple didn't, apparently.)
