Reviews
I’ve done food tours all over the world and this was definitely one of my favourites! The market tour was so interesting. So busy and full of life, we were pleased to have our chef to show us around! He was fantastic company, a real warm, authentic, passionate Italian. It was a real treat to spend the day with him. We learnt so much, and I can’t wait to take the recipes home to show off to my friends. The wine tasting was a nice touch, fresh pasta and wine in Rome, what more could you want! Such a memorable experience. Thanks for a brilliant day!

What's not to love? Fresh ingredients picked out from local markets, instruction from a professional chef, and homemade pasta! Add to this plenty of wine and new friends, and this was a perfect immersive experience for the foodie "while in Rome".
