Semi-Private Trastevere Food Tour


Our Trastevere Food Tour just got an upgrade—smaller groups, bigger flavour, and a deeper connection to real Roman food culture. With only 6 people per group, you’ll enjoy personalised attention from your guide and a more intimate experience with fellow food lovers. You’ll savour the best of Trastevere at a relaxed pace, no rushing, no waiting—just excellent food, fast service, and meaningful stories behind every bite.


We’ve also upgraded the menu to include a second course with your choice of a hearty meat or veggie main, made from locally and sustainably sourced, pesticide-free ingredients. You’ll dine at intergenerational, family-run eateries that have been part of the Trastevere community for decades, places where recipes are passed down like heirlooms and “slow food” is a way of life. Oh, and did we mention that you'll also get limoncello? What could be better than that!


Ready for a delectable experience in Rome? Prepare for an unforgettable adventure through one of the city's trendiest (and tastiest!) neighbourhoods, at a perfect pace for everyone in your group.


Please note that the places we visit and the food we try depends on the season. We also have vegetarian options available at every stop!



This is a sustainable tour, meaning part of the profit goes towards reforestation


Summer’s coming! We ask our guests to bring a reusable water bottle to refill along our route to stay hydrated and also help us reduce waste.


Tour Highlights

  • Check iconMore Personalised experience: With just 6 people in your group, your guide can better cater (pun intended!) to your needs, offering tailored recommendations and addressing dietary preferences, all while building a more personal connection with each individual.
  • Check iconMore intimate atmosphere: Wander through Trastevere’s charming, narrow streets in a small group, where you’ll feel more like you’re uncovering local treasures with friends rather than just part of a crowd.
  • Check iconSmoother transitions: Unlike larger groups that require extra time to get organised, a smaller group lets you move seamlessly from one stop to the next, gaining exclusive access to hidden gems that larger groups can’t easily visit.
  • Check iconBetter engagement with locals: With fewer people, you’ll have more chances to connect with local vendors, who are often more willing to share stories and special insights with a smaller group.

Meet at Piazza Mastai

Our group meets in this historic square just off Trastevere’s main street

Salumeria

Sample some of the region’s finest cheese and porchetta accompanied with fine local wine.

Fritti

The Romans have always been fans of fried food. Discover the nations favourite: suppli al telefono and learn the reason behind its quirky name!

Traditional Bakery

Sample a variety of authentic Roman pizza in this traditional, locally-beloved bakery/pizzeria.

Pastificio

Indulge in homemade Roman pasta with a range of traditional sauces, from amatriciana and carbonara to cacio e pepe and gricia.

Secondi

After Pasta, the Italians have their main course. Excessive, right? We love it. Expect a traditional roman dish, this varies depending on the house specialty’s.

Gelateria

Treat yourself to the creamy stuff of dreams as we visit one of the centre’s most beloved artisan gelato vendors!
