Great food, enjoyable time, learned a lot! - I did this tour 10 years ago and enjoyed it so much I came back with my family! The second time around was just as fun and the food was delicious! Jean Luca was our guide and was very personable and super knowledgeable about food, the history of the food and about Rome. The whole family had an enjoyable time and learned a lot!
