We did the food tour by golf cart with Alice as our guide. She was fantastic!!! Super personable and took us to great places we never would have found without her!! First we had typical Roman breakfast at a pastry cafe. You know it’s a good place when locals and even the police stop in for take away. Next we drove around the city a bit and stopped for local Roman pizza. Seriously, so delicious!!! I’m going to dream about that pizza for months. Then we went to a meat and cheese shop and they made us a board of cured meats, cheeses, olives, and bread. We were all stuffed but there was more to eat. We had lunch at a family owned pasta place which was delicious!!! Finally we ended the tour with gelato. It was a great day and I learned so much about the city, food, and culture. If you want a great day filled with all the amazing food you could ever eat, then book this tour!!!!!!!

The food tour with Fabio was FANTASTIC! We were able to see some of the sights of Rome and get a taste of the local flavor. Fabio was very knowledgeable and engaging. We felt safe in the golf cart even though Rome drivers are crazy. We had the best pizza of our whole trip on this tour. Highly recommend for people of all ages!

We initially booked the tour for 4 but were Alice, our guide for the morning, arrived bright and early, and her character and persona made the whole tour so much more enjoyable. Driving through Rome in a golf cart is so much fun as we felt much more intermate and close to the city. Each stop had fantastic food, from breakfast pastries and coffee to pasta and wine to finish off. The information Alice spoke about was great, interesting and easy to listen to, her English is excellent. I thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone who only has a short time in the beautiful city and wants a taste of real Italian food, and wants to see a lot of the city!

    Valerio Cappelli was born and raised in the center of beautiful Roma. He has a passion for history and endless anecdotes but the truth must be said; his greatest passion is food. When he’s not guiding he’s doing his other gig which is acting so join along and let him take you all around a different time and space! A ride with Valerio means hopping on his golf cart “Time Machine” and going back centuries to meet many of the great figures of the past.
