Rome Food Tours Reviews - Our 23 Top Picks (Updated 2025)

We’ve done our fair share of Rome food tours—some amazing, others
 not so much. If you're planning to explore the city through its delicious food, here's what to expect and what to watch out for.

A typical Rome food tour lasts around 2.5 to 4 hours and usually includes 5–10 tasting stops. You’ll visit local markets, bakeries, street food stalls, and family-run restaurants while sampling Roman classics like supplì, pizza al taglio, fresh pasta, cheeses, cured meats, and of course, authentic gelato.

The best tours are led by local guides or food experts who bring Rome’s history, culture, and neighbourhoods to life while you eat your way through the city.

They also tend to keep the groups small, the walking pace relaxed, and the vibe super friendly and immersive.

That said, not all food tours in Rome are created equal.

We’ve been on a few that didn’t quite live up to the hype—tiny food portions, underwhelming stops, and guides who seemed disengaged or rushed. Some of these tours felt overpriced for what we got. Those ones didn’t make our list.

So we’re sharing only the crùme de la crùme of 2025 Rome food tours—the ones that truly impressed us with plenty of food, great guides, and an authentic Roman experience from start to finish.

We’ve also put together a list of our handpicked food tours not just in Rome, but across other Italian cities (Naples, Florence, Bologna...) —because once you start eating your way through Italy, it’s hard to stop!

Our honest review of the Roman Food Tour with Trionfale Market!

This walking food tour through the local neighbourhood of Prati was a standout experience—one of the best food tours we’ve taken in Italy. From expertly selected stops to generous tastings and a friendly, knowledgeable guide, every moment felt authentic and thoughtfully curated.

☕ 1. A Sweet Roman Start

The tour began with a classic Roman breakfast: a smooth espresso paired with an unexpectedly amazing cannolo. Enjoyed on the terrace of a local café, it set the tone for a relaxed and immersive experience.

🍕 2. Pizza Al Taglio – A Local Favourite

Next came pizza al taglio, a Roman staple. We tried several slices, but the ones topped with potatoes and mortadella stole the show. They were so good we returned later during our trip just to have them again—always a good sign!

🧀 3. Discovering Mercato Trionfale

One of the tour’s highlights was exploring Mercato Trionfale, a massive, lesser-known local market. It was buzzing with life and full of incredible ingredients and ready-to-eat dishes. Here we tasted:

  • Bruschetta with olive oil and tomatoes
  • Prosciutto di Parma
  • Eggplant parmigiana
  • Local red wine

It was a real insider experience—this market doesn’t typically show up on tourist itineraries.

🍝 4. Traditional Lunch at a Roman Trattoria

After grazing through the market, we headed to a cozy local trattoria for a sit-down meal. The highlight was a plate of fresh pasta (cooked perfectly al dente), served with regional wine in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It felt like dining with family.

🍹 5. Ending on a Sweet Note

The tour ended with gelato from a local gelateria—creamy, flavorful, and a refreshing finale to a food-filled morning

🛍 Bonus: Gourmet Souvenir Stop

After the tour, we followed our guide’s suggestion and visited Castroni, a gourmet food shop on Via Cola di Rienzo. It’s a great spot to buy Italian food souvenirs like truffle spreads, biscotti, or handmade pasta.

✅ Why We Recommend It

  • Unique stops far from tourist traps
  • Generous food portions and multiple wine tastings
  • Friendly, expert guide (Raluca was fantastic!)
  • Great mix of walking, tasting, and relaxing
  • Perfect for first-time visitors and seasoned foodies alike

🏁 Final Thoughts

This food tour is a must for anyone wanting to taste the real Rome. It's not just a series of tastings—it’s a journey into the city’s food culture, led by locals who love what they do. If you're staying near the Vatican or in Prati (we stayed at Eccelso Hotel), this is the perfect way to spend a delicious half-day.

Awesome Food Tour of Rome with Irene đŸ€€đŸ˜‹
"Rome Food Tour ***Note Come Hungry*** Irene, was our tour guide and she brought a lot of energy, humor, and enthusiasm to the tour. We appreciated the opportunity to sample Italian coffee, Roman pizza, different wines, and hams from Mercato Trianfale. For pasta, we had the choice of trying Cacio e Pepe or Carbonara, both accompanied by more wine. And to end the tour on a sweet note, we ate some great gelato. Throughout our stops, Irene shared a wealth of knowledge and passion for the city, making the tour incredibly interesting."
Elena, April 2025

Fantastic Prati Food and Wine Tour!
"Fantastic food and wine tour of Prati! Irene was an excellent guide - warm, friendly, knowledgeable and very entertaining! All the food stops were delicious, always fun visiting a market and generous and the Irene and Jack at Il Segreto were an excellent double act and the Prosecco, wine and limoncello flowed! Irene was also a brilliant problem solver - when it became evident that a couple of venues would be tricky for a power wheelchair, she was on the phone and managed to adjust venues while still delivering on all elements of the tour. So impressed! Highly recommend!"

Our review of the Jewish Ghetto & Campo de' Fiori Rome Food Tour!

Why We Love This Rome Food Tour

This evening walking food tour in Rome was the perfect way to explore Rome beyond the typical dinner reservation.

  • Cured meats and Italian cheeses — enjoyed at a cozy wine bar with a glass of local red
  • Traditional Roman pasta dishes — served at a restaurant built into the ancient ruins of the Theatre of Pompey

Rome’s Jewish Ghetto & Campo de' Fiori Food Tour 2025 Reviews:

Great night out with family and friends. Wonderful enthusiasm and knowledge from Matteo our guide.
"We had a wonderful tour guide Mateo that spoke excellent English and was easy to understand. The tour is four hours long and he was very energetic and passionate the whole time. Mateo gave us the history of the Jewish ghetto and also many other places we visited. Mateo answered any questions that the group had. The food was outstanding from the appetizers to the pizza to the pasta to the eggplant to the tiramisu to the gelato to finish it off. And you also get beer, wine, water or soda. I would highly recommend this tour."

2025 Reviews of the Testaccio Food Tour in Rome:

Streaty Food Tour a Great Choice in Rome
"This was a great tour! Giulia gave us a wonderful introduction to the food of Rome. We started in Trastevere and moved into Testaccio, including the local market. She was friendly and knowledgeable about the area (she grew up there) and the history of the foods we tried. The vendors and restaurants we visited had a good variety of delicious food for us, including local wines to try. Maritozzi, polpette, suppli, cheese and Cacio e pepe are some of the wonderful foods we tasted. We were not hungry at the end. We highly recommend this tour in Rome."

The real Roman experience
"Incredible tour with a lovely, knowledgeable guide (grazie Giulia!) Loved exploring different neighbourhoods and getting a mix of food, history and culture - it felt authentic, not like being a tourist at all. Highlights included the maritozzo (away from the tourist trail), the wine and cheese pairing at Testaccio market, and a delicious Roman meal at a historic restaurant nearby. Highly recommended!"

Great walking tour where we learned about the history of the neighborhood, the history for the local foods. our guide was excellent- he was entertaining and knowledgeable, and and had a genuine love for the cuisine and culture.

What’s the best time to take a walking food tour in Rome?

Each time of day brings its own charm to a Rome food tour. There's no wrong time to dive into the flavours of Rome. Choose the time that suits your rhythm and appetite.

Why you should take a Rome food tour in the morning

Kick off your Roman adventure with a morning food tour that dives into the city's beloved breakfast traditions. Think buttery cornetti (Italy’s answer to the croissant) and rich, velvety espresso—a classic local combo.

Many tours also wander through bustling markets like Campo de' Fiori or Mercato Trionfale, where fresh produce, cheeses, and local treats tempt every step of the way. With so many bites along the route, you probably won’t need a separate breakfast—or even lunch!

Here are some of the top morning food tours in Rome worth checking out:

Enjoy the best of Rome with afternoon culinary walks

By the afternoon, the city's energy picks up. This is the perfect time to explore Roman street food, from supplĂŹ to porchetta sandwiches. Afternoon tours take you through food markets, trattorias and specialized shops.

You'll have the chance to enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of popular neighbourhoods like Trastevere or Monti.

Several companies offer afternoon Rome food tours in these areas.

The Roman Food Tour provides experiences in both Trastevere and Prati, while Gourmetaly offers Rome food tour in Campo de' Fiori, Jewish Ghetto, and Trastevere with multiple departure times throughout the afternoon.

Evening food tours in Rome: A delicious night out

As the sun sets, Rome comes alive with a different kind of magic—perfect for an evening Rome food tour. These tours often begin with an aperitivo (a pre-dinner drink with light bites) and flow into a relaxed, multi-course meal.

It’s also the best time to soak in the city’s trattoria culture, where charming, family-run spots dish out classic Roman favorites in a warm, lively setting.

Our favourite night food tour of Rome is the one taking place in the Jewish Ghetto and Campo de' Fiori!

Both Carpe Diem Tours and Devour Tours offer evening food tours in Rome's Trastevere (very popular!).

Eating Europe's Twilight Trastevere Rome food tour is among the best-rated.

5 Tips for picking the perfect food tour in Rome

  1. 🍕 Follow Your Foodie Heart
    Are you all about exploring local markets like we are? Then a morning tour with a stop at Trionfale Market will be right up your alley. Prefer street food, wine tastings, or pasta dinners? Rome’s got tours to satisfy every craving.

  2. đŸ‘„ Choose Small Groups for a More Personal Experience
    We always go for tours with no more than 8 people. It’s more fun, relaxed, and you actually get to chat with the guide and your fellow foodies. Want a custom vibe? Book a private tour!

  3. ⭐ Check the Reviews Before Booking
    Always peek at traveler reviews to see what people loved (or didn’t). Consistently great feedback = a safe (and tasty) bet.

  4. ⏰ Pick a Time That Matches Your Travel Style
    Early riser? A morning tour could be perfect—and you might even skip lunch. Prefer slow starts? An afternoon or evening tour might suit your rhythm better. There’s no wrong answer!

  5. đŸ„— Ask About Dietary Restrictions Upfront
    Most Rome food tours can accommodate vegetarian, gluten-free, or non-alcoholic needs—just let them know in advance. Guides are usually happy to make it work.

Special dietary requirements on a walking food tour in Rome? Here’s what you need to know

Have dietary restrictions but still want to experience a culinary tour in Rome? Good news: many tour operators are flexible and happy to accommodate different diets—as long as you let them know ahead of time.

Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or managing food allergies, you can still enjoy a flavourful and inclusive experience on a Rome walking food tour.

✅ Let the tour company know in advance

Once you've booked (or even when you're still browsing), contact the provider to share your dietary needs. Most hosts are familiar with special requests and will let you know what can be adjusted.

🍝 What can usually be adapted?

  • Vegetarian — Easy to accommodate, with delicious Roman staples like pizza, pasta, fried artichokes, and fresh gelato.
  • Gluten-free — Many Rome culinary tours offer alternatives or slight modifications.
  • Vegan — While traditional Roman cuisine isn’t always vegan by default, some stops can adapt.
  • Food allergies — Just be specific, especially about ingredients like nuts, dairy, or shellfish.

đŸš« Things to keep in mind:

Smaller, traditional eateries may have fixed menus or fewer options, especially on older routes. But a good guide will communicate clearly and do their best to offer alternatives or helpful substitutions.

💬 Final Tip:

Don't let your dietary needs stop you from enjoying a food experience in Rome. With clear communication and a flexible tour guide, you'll still get to enjoy authentic flavours of Rome.

  • Roman pasta - Simple Roman pasta dishes like spaghetti carbonara and cacio e pepe are some of the best highlights on a Rome food tour. If you're after something heartier, opt for amatriciana, which boasts a robust tomato sauce and cured pork cheek. Try tasteful Roman pasta on Eating Europe's Rome food tour in Testaccio or The Roman Guy's Hidden gems of Trastevere.

  • Saltimbocca alla Romana - Made of thin slices of veal or pork, topped with prosciutto and sage, then deliciously cooked in white wine and butter. A truly captivating blend of flavours!

  • SupplĂŹ - Crispy and gooey fried rice balls filled with meat sauce and mozzarella. You'll eat yummy supplĂŹ on this Rome food tour in historic centre and this food tour of Rome in Trastevere.

  • Porchetta - Roasted pork seasoned with an aromatic mix of spices and herbs. You'll find stalls at food markets selling porchetta by the slice, perfect when paired with freshly baked focaccia.

  • Carciofi alla Giudia - Artichokes prepared in the Jewish style, which are crispy and golden outside, yet tender inside. Try this Roman treat on the evening food tour in Jewish Ghetto and Campo de' Fiori.

  • Fiori di zucca ripieni - A delightful starter often on menus from late spring through summer. These zucchini flowers are stuffed with fresh ricotta or mozzarella and anchovies, then fried or oven-baked.

  • Pizza al taglio - You can enjoy a slice for just €2 to €3, topped with anything from mozzarella and mortadella to smoked ham, zucchini flowers, potatoes, or artichokes (this Roman food tour features mouth-watering pizza).

  • Pinsa Romana - Similar to pizza, but oval-shaped snack, usually crafted from a mix of flours, including wheat, spelt, and oat, adorned with mostly seasonal toppings.

  • Gelato - Choose from a multitude of classic and imaginative flavours. All food tours in Rome include gelato tasting!

  • Cannoli - Typical Sicilian sweet made of fried dough shells filled with a sweet and creamy ricotta mixture. So addictive! We adore cannoli from Nonna Vincenza, a Sicilian pasticceria you can find in Rome.

  • Maritozzi - Incredibly soft and light buns, split down the middle and heaped with perfectly whipped cream. These tasty buns are a favourite breakfast item with coffee, reasonably priced at around €2.
