Absolutely loved our Testaccio food tour! Each stop brought its own unique flavor and story. The gelato at the end was simply divine, and having it in the neighborhood where our guide grew up made it even more special. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a taste of local Rome

Our guide’s stories about Testaccio’s hidden gems and the history of Roman cuisine added layers of depth to every dish.

Der Besuch war einzigartig, mit perfekten Stopps und einem tollen Guide.
From the welcoming aperitivo to the final sip of espresso at Testaccio’s oldest gelateria, each moment of the tour was crafted to delight. The gelato was the best I’ve had—a creamy, dreamy treat that wrapped up the evening beautifully.
