**Perfect guide for an unforgettable culinary tour of Trastevere!** - We took Orso on a culinary tour of Rome’s authentic Trastevere district – and it was the absolute highlight of our trip! Orso did an absolutely perfect job: With incredible passion and expertise, he let us know the secrets of Roman cuisine. From hidden trattorias with homemade pasta recipes to aromatic street food highlights and the best local wines, he knows every corner and shares insider tips for the next trip to Rome that we want to try right away. The pizza tasting in a traditional pizzeria was particularly grandiose: Thin, crispy, with fresh ingredients straight from the region – a dream! Orso not only explained the ingredients and baking techniques, but also created a great group atmosphere with funny anecdotes about Roman food culture. On top of that there were more delicious samples that made us wonder. 5 stars without ifs and buts – Orso is the best! Every visitor to Rome should book this tour. Thank you for this highlight day

Eating like the Romans - This was a great way to spend our first evening in Rome. Our guide, Orso, was extremely knowledgeable about everything not just the food. Everything was well organized and the food was excellent. A good cross section of every day foods.

Great local food. - What a fabulous experience this traverse walking tour was. Silvia our guide was a friendly, fun person who walked us around the area, and took us to lots of amazing places to eat. We had suppli, trapezzanni, meat, cheese, fruit and beautiful cake. We were with a lovely group of people which made the day extra special.

It’s More Than Just The Food! - This is a wonderful tour to book if you want to get to know this rich and interesting area in Rome. And if you luck out and get Vanessa as your guide, you will have a terrific experience. It’s not all about the food (but that, of course, is the star of the tour) it’s about getting to know the history and the culture of the region . And Vanessa is an expert who will enhance your experience with a lot of interesting information.

OMG! Horrible and Overpriced - This was a standing street food experience which was not expected based on the price. Profit margin was enormous, since we saw all the prices. No napkins were offered , nor water (until asked), where our first stop required us to peel fruit with our hands. Next stop was eating with our hands standing. We then insisted on a table at the next stop, which seemed to be an imposition. Stay away. Also, our guide could not answer basic questions about the product offerings of the shops we went into. So disappointing.
