1. Discover the gastronomic tradition of Rome

The Roman Cuisine tells us years of history and tradition. This unique city reveals itself through its gastronomy and therefore if you are planning to visit Rome you can’t be satisfied with just having lunch in one of the many fast food restaurants that the capital offers. A decent and traditional lunch or dinner in a local restaurant is a moral duty!

The typical food tradition of Rome is characterised by simple dishes based on popular ingredients, but this does not mean that these are poor or not very tasty dishes. The opposite is the case: the most typical dishes of Rome are a real triumph of flavours.

From the pasta alla Carbonara, to porchetta and supplì, there are tons of dishes to try in the city. For this reason, participating in a food tour in Rome is a great choice: you will have the opportunity to taste at least 4 dishes in different restaurants along the way without having to exclude any of the best places!

2. Try the Roman Pizza

Roman or Neapolitan Pizza? Do you know the difference?

While the first one is thin and crispy, the latter is high and soft. This ongoing discussion is a matter of taste but if you visit Rome, you surely need to try its pizza.

The toppings are various and varied, but the most famous one in Rome is the one with tomato, mozzarella, anchovies, basil, pecorino and pepper.

We are sure that after the first bite, you will want another slice!

3. You will dive into the most typical districts of Rome

A food tour through Rome is the perfect way to discover the city from a different point of view.

In this way you will stroll through the capital’s streets, diving deeply into the characteristic districts where you will discover new and original paths. You will abandon the usual tourist itineraries in order to discover a more true and authentic Rome.

Among the most beautiful and eye-catchy districts, there is one that you can’t miss: Trastevere, just to mention an example.

Although this is the beating heart of the nightlife of the capital, you will discover that during the day it has a completely different aspect. Between silent streets and cobblestones, the hassle of the city seems light years away!
