Fantastic tour with local guide that avoids the tourist traps - Lily was a fantastic guide. She was super knowledgeable and willing to answer all of our questions, including items not related to the tour. We were lucky enough to have the tour just be me and my 16 year old daughter. We tried delicious coffee and treats and will definitely be going back to the places Lily introduced us to. She even had restaurant recommendations based on activities we have planned for the rest of our trip. Lily was great and we’d highly recommend this tour. We did it late afternoon. I might recommend earlier in the day. It was a lot of espresso!

Fantastic sweet tour! - This was a very fun, easy and informative tour of some Italian faves! My three kids of various ages loved it. Our tour guide Cleria was fantastic and very good with the kids, with a perfect temperament and a lot of good information to share. Even on a rainy day it was one of the highlights of our trip.

Book this tour now! - Lilly was AMAZING! She was very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. It was myself and my 10 year old and she was able to customize the experience so that my daughter could enjoy everything. We tasted amazing coffee treats, the BEST gelato, the BEST tiramisu and more. If you come hungry you will not leave disappointed. Easy 5 stars from me and my 10 yo.

Awesome experience - Lisa was an amazing tour guide. We were lucky in that it was just my wife and I but our guide did such a good job explaining everything. She was not just knowledgeable of coffee and gelato but also the history of Rome. Such a good experience and I would suggest this to anyone who loves coffee and gelato

Talk about Dolci Vita! - Chose to do this tour on our first afternoon in Rome hoping the espresso would keep us going 😉! We ended up having a private tour with just my daughter and me! Our tour guide Fede was amazing! She was fun, energetic, engaging, and shared many details about espresso and how to hunt out natural gelato! By the end, she felt like a friend and I was sad she couldn’t just hang out with us! What a wonderful introduction to Rome and its people! Thank you, Fede!

One of the best tours in Rome - This tour was one of the best we did while in Italy! Federica and Andy were so fun and informative. We ended up having a private tour because no one else booked so we could ask all the questions we wanted and just hang out and have fun. The espresso was fantastic as well as the gelato, granita and tiramisu. The great quality coffee made all the difference! Would highly recommend this excursion!
