WHAT WE’LL DO

This is not an ordinary food tour in Rome! During this tour we’ll take you to the very places where we ourselves eat and shop everyday. And we actually mean it! Because this food tour takes place in our neighborhood: Monteverde.

We used to do food tours in Trastevere, which is a great location for food. However we felt like that was something too ON the beaten path.. And if you know us from social media, you probably know how much we strive everyday to give you an INSIDER’S look on Rome.

And so we thought of giving you a REAL TASTE of what food in Rome is like for us, by taking you to:

  • the local market where we shop fresh local produce from family-run businesses
  • a local artisanal pastry shop where we have our typical Roman breakfast
  • the historical deli of the neighborhood since generations
  • the local bakery which doesn’t even have a sign above the door, because it is an “institution” in the neighborhood!
  • one of our favorite gelato shops and its laboratory where the gelato is made fresh everyday

In the neighborhood of Monteverde you won’t find famous food chains, but just local family-run businesses. You will see the real side of Rome away from the tourists’ paths in a more chilled environment. A food tour in a local neighborhood means getting higher quality food than the touristy areas of Rome.

During this tour we’ll also share the tips you’ll need to recognize the tourist traps when having food on your own. For example, did you know that not all the gelatos are the same? Did you come all the way to Rome to not taste the real thing? Sure you didn’t!

If you have any dietary restrictions, please do let us know in advance when booking and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs, when possible.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

  • Breakfast with coffee/cappuccino and maritozzo
  • Explore the local market and learn the tips and tricks of the farmers
  • Taste the fresh local produce in a fruit shake or fruit salad
  • Enjoy a selection of ham and cheese from the roman countryside at the local deli, with a glass of wine
  • Savour “pizza al taglio” from the local bakery
  • One of our favorite Gelato

Great way to explore and learn about Rome’s amazing water system. Interesting tour, Sabrina was very knowledgeable about the aqueduct system and other history of Rome!

Great way to see, learn, eat and have fun exploring Rome! Giuliano was a wonderful guide as we walked through areas of Rome that we wouldn’t have found on our own. Food and wine were plentiful and delicious!

Rome from a real Roman Best tour company you will find in Rome. This is where you learn about history. Not through podcasts or polished isn’t videos. An educated local with a wealth of knowledge and passion about her city! Federica was such a valuable source of knowledge and you should definitely book her tours!

Excellent way to experience a different side of Rome This tour took us through the neighborhoods of Trastevere and the Jewish Ghetto. Our guide, Valera, showed us hidden gems such as a Bernini and a convent that houses the remains of a saint. She brought to life the history of the area and her stories inspired us and reminded us the importance of remembering history. We loved this tour so much we signed up for another tour from Live Virtual Guides to visit Rome at Sunset. What I loved about this particular walking tour is the expertise of the guide, the small group, and the well curated sights that we would not have visited on our own.

Hidden gems, indeed! Frangelica was knowledgeable and friendly. We saw things we’d never see on our own. The areas were not crowded, easy to see and very interesting! I’d highly recommend to friends and family.

Rome has so much to offer that we normally don’t look for. A fabulous experience. We learnt so much history in areas that we would have probably not visited. Walking around these places without a guide would mean you miss most of what happened here. Highly recommended.
