What Guests Say About Our Rome Food Tour
- James Campbell3/28/2026My family and I had a wonderful time making pasta and tiramisu with our charming instructor, Chef Alessandro. We joint a group of folks from Ohio and had a wonderful small cooking class. I love to cook and have made fresh pasta several times before with one of my daughters who also loves to cook. For my wife and other children, this was their first time making pasta. All of us thoroughly enjoyed this class. My wife and non-foodie kids learned the basics while my daughter and I learned a number of advanced tips that I’ve never seen on any cooking videos. It was a fantastic experience for all. The unlimited wine was fun too! We continued the wonderful experience as we got to consume the pasta and tiramisu that we made for lunch. The tiramisu turned out so delicious and we are all excited to take our lessons back home and make this wonderful food again. Chef Alessandro had us laughing and learning the entire time and even joined us at the lunch table to continue to fun conversations.The experience was incredible, the food was incredible, and the small class setting in a beautiful wine cellar of a lovely restaurant was incredible. I’d recommend this class to anyone visiting Florence. 10/10!Read moreRead less×James Campbell3/28/2026My family and I had a wonderful time making pasta and tiramisu with our charming instructor, Chef Alessandro.

That being said, I'd have to say that The Roman Food Tour was the highlight of my vacation in Rome. Giulia was very accomodating and personable. Her explanations of the different foods and the history behind each dish made for a very delightful experience.The food was beyond delicious. I'm not sure if it was the ambience, the awe of being in Rome, the company of my beautiful wife, the fun way that Giulia ran her tour, or a combination of all aspects, but the food was amazing. Even a simple slice of prosciutto tasted so much better than it normally did.I have to mention that we weren't able to make our tour appointment originally due to increased construction and security in preparation for a huge upcoming event. No taxis or ubers were picking up because of this. We resorted to asking for a refund even though we knew the chances were slim (our tour was practically beginning already). The good folks at The Roman Food Tour found us an alternate site and held up the tour until we could make it out there. Who does that?! That in itself showed us that we booked with the right company.Read moreRead less×moonwolf rumina3/27/2026While in Rome, we visited many historic sites, saw many beautiful things.

- Kenzie Richardson3/26/2026My new husband and I went to this class on the last day of our honeymoon and we had the BEST time! It was located very close to the Vatican, so location wise, it was great. We started the day there & then explored that part of the city. Prices vary, depending on time of day, but I would have paid a higher price if I had to. We had Marco as our instructor & he was amazing. We made delicious pasta and tiramisu, and drank LOTS of wine. Marco explained every step thoroughly and did it in such a fun and entertaining way. 10/10 would do it again!!Read moreRead less×Kenzie Richardson3/26/2026My new husband and I went to this class on the last day of our honeymoon and we had the BEST time!

We were a large group, almost none of whom had ever made pasta or tiramisu, and now we can all do it like pros! Carlos was really good fun, singing and dancing as he took us through the lesson with passion and love, and the dishes were excellent. Free-flowing Prosecco and wine throughout were a bonus. Highly recommend this experience for all ages.Read moreRead less×Wilson50003/26/2026Hugely enjoyable experience.

- angela lee3/17/2026Andrea is friendly and approachable. He was patient with every single one in the class. He also taught the class with clear instructions and good English command. It’s fun making the pasta and tiramisu. I would like to suggest the cooking of pasta can be improved by adding in some other ingredients such as pancetta. The pasta was a bit bland but I love how the programme welcome guest with Prosecco. Free flow wine is good for people who enjoy drinking while doing activity at the same time.Read moreRead less×angela lee3/17/2026Andrea is friendly and approachable.

The atmosphere was warm, relaxed, and welcoming from the very beginning.A special shoutout to the instructor who led the workshop — (I don not remember his name but he wore glasses with dark curly hair) and was extremely kind and engaging throughout the entire session. He made everyone feel comfortable, involved, and confident, no matter their level of cooking experience. What really stood out was how attentive and patient he was with everyone, always ready to help and encourage.He also shared a few personal stories along the way, which made the experience feel even more authentic and memorable. It didn’t feel like a formal class at all — more like cooking with friends while learning great techniques.Thanks to him, the whole group had a lot of fun, laughed together, and left with not only delicious pasta and tiramisu but also great memories.

There was tons of local food and wine and all of it was delicious! The Tour started with a taste of Roman street food (so good we ended up going back another day), a charcuterie board with Italian meats and cheeses, homemade pizza and pasta, and of course gelato! Giulia was super knowledgeable and able to answer all of our questions about local cuisines and the origins/regions the food we were eating came from. In addition to fantastic places during our tour Giulia provided amazing local food recommendations the rest of our time in Rome which saved me a hours of trying to find places to eat. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Rome!Read moreRead less×Madaline Dabrow2/05/2026We went on the Roman Food Tour of Trastevere with Giulia and it was a fantastic experience!

- Victoria Neighbour2/03/2026Our girls group had such a great experience! We were paired with 3 other couples and all of our energy and excitement were matched by our fantastic chef Alessandro. We learned so much and appreciated that we were given the recipes after so we can keep practicing our newly learned skills.

The way Alessandro transports his cuisine experience from his grandmother (la nonna) teachings to the reasons why he cooks today is very cravy. The environment and comfort he creates, makes you want to cook with your heart and soul and not just a "perfect" dish.

- The Day Family1/28/2026This cooking class was so much fun. I had a great time making friends and food. It was delicious and Cecilia was an excellent teacher and host. She worked hard and let us sit down and enjoy our drinks in between our prep work. I love that she shared recipes and tips so I can recreate at home. They were so kind and accommodating when I was running late.Read moreRead less×The Day Family1/28/2026This cooking class was so much fun. I had a great time making friends and food.

- Eric1/20/2026We had an absolutely fantastic experience on The Roman Food Tour with Irene, specifically the Prati Tour. The variety of food was incredible — delicious meats, cheeses, traditional dishes, amazing gelato, and even a balsamic vinegar so good it deserves its own category. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen and genuinely special. Irene was such a joy to spend the evening with. She was warm, positive, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun while still sharing great insight along the way. One thing that really stood out was how attentive she was to our group, especially making sure there were great alternatives for a pregnant member of our party. That kind of care makes a huge difference. Highly recommend this tour and especially Irene if you’re lucky enough to get her as your guide.Read moreRead less×Eric1/20/2026We had an absolutely fantastic experience on The Roman Food Tour with Irene, specifically the Prati Tour.

- Peter Jones1/13/2026I went with myself and 2 daughters 7&4. Carlos and the team were excellent and loved having the kids there. The children got to do everything and loved it. They even had the finest Italian hot chocolate to replace the wine. It was also great the way they encouraged all the participants at the table to interact together. It was like a long lunch with friendsRead moreRead less×Peter Jones1/13/2026I went with myself and 2 daughters 7&4. Carlos and the team were excellent and loved having the kids there.

We learned how to make fresh pasta and tiramisù, and it was honestly so much fun. It was a high-quality experience to share with my husband, something different and truly enjoyable. We would absolutely do it again (or try another class!). As Romans, we already appreciated it a lot, but for foreigners, this experience is simply next level.

You'll want to buy a hand crank pasta machine by the time you are done, and you'll be making your own tiramisu as often as you like when you get home.

- Rachal Nettune12/31/2025I recently had the pleasure of joining The Roman Food Tour, and it truly was the highlight of my first experience in Rome. Our tour guide was not only knowledgeable but also charming and engaging, making the entire experience enjoyable and memorable. I only wish I had scheduled this tour earlier in my itinerary, as it greatly enhanced my understanding of local specialties and elevated all of my subsequent dining experiences throughout the trip. One standout moment was sampling a remarkable wine at our very first location; it quickly became my favorite of the trip! I can’t recommend this tour highly enough for anyone looking to immerse themselves in Rome's culinary delights. It’s an experience that will truly enrich your time in this beautiful city!Read moreRead less×Rachal Nettune12/31/2025I recently had the pleasure of joining The Roman Food Tour, and it truly was the highlight of my first experience in Rome.

I thoroughly recommend this activity for everyone who wants to do something different and enjoyable!Read moreRead lessSura Makki12/30/2025We had a wonderful experience making pasta and tiramisu in Florence. Chef Alessandro was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful from the very beginning. He explained everything so clearly and shared many tips and tricks that really deepened my appreciation for how pasta and tiramisu are properly made. The experience was both fun and educational, and we learned so much while enjoying every moment. It was also lovely to meet other people who were just as enthusiastic about learning Italian cooking, which made the atmosphere even more special. Overall, it was a truly enjoyable and memorable experience and highly recommended. If you visit Italy, learning authentic pasta-making from a passionate Italian chef like Alessandro is something you should not miss.

- L12/29/2025Awesome experience! My family and I (children-one college and one teen) signed up through Get Your Guide for a pasta, tiramisu cooking class with unlimited wine. We had a cooking class before in Italy years ago. Cooking instructor Alessandro was very entertaining! Hands on, fun and simple. You cook two types of pasta and make a tiramisu. He gives you the recipes, explains very well, offers great tips, and is very humorous. Highly recommend this class if you want to learn how to make two simple, delicious pastas and dessert. The cooking class is taught in a kitchen of a small restaurant so follow the address.Read moreRead less×L12/29/2025Awesome experience!

Our cooking instructor, Alessandro was full of energy! Our lesson wasn’t a lecture, it was more of a friendly talk about it, having laughs while cooking! This is a great experience if you are a foodie that doesn’t know much about food, but about how it tastes only, you’re able to learn the secrets behind these famous Italian foods! The food turned out delicious with the recipes given and a great teacher! We made tiramisu and two pastas types!
