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

A night to remember in Testaccio! The sequence of dishes, from the artisan cheese paired with exquisite wines to the wood-fired pizza, and finally the rich, creamy gelato, was perfectly curated. Each location was more charming than the last, and our guide was the perfect host, full of local insights.
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.
