Twilight Trastevere Food Experience

Eat your way through Rome’s most atmospheric neighborhood

Trastevere has the postcard looks, but the food is the reason people keep coming back. Behind the ivy, stone streets, and busy piazzas is a neighborhood built on bakeries, wine cellars, family-run kitchens, and snacks Romans take seriously.

This experience gives you Trastevere at its most atmospheric: a little street food, a little history, a little wine, and enough pasta to make the route feel like dinner. You will taste classic Roman bites, step into places with real local character, and learn why dishes like suppli and cacio e pepe are more than menu staples.

It is designed for guests who want Rome to feel less like a museum and more like a city people still live, cook, pour, and argue about food in.

He is passionate in his work and it shows. He has the knack and passion to being a great tour guide in the beautiful city of Rome, and I hope his mother sees this because I want her to know to be proud of her son! He’s doing wonderful things!!

    Our group loved everything about this class! Mariel lead our class and she was amazing! The entire evening was very authentic from buying our supplies from the butcher to making our dish and then dining family style in the most beautiful Restaurant. Finishing the night with a stroll through town for gelato was the perfect way to end. Highly recommend this class! Can’t wait to try pasta at home.

    We had a private tour with Leo for a food tour including the Jewish Ghetto & Trastevere areas. Leo was an excellent guide & provided information on the historical significance of some of the areas we saw. When we arrived at the restaurants, everything was arranged in advance, so no waiting or worry about crowds. We tried several different foods, each accompanied by some wine! It was a great tour & we would recommend!
