Twilight Food Tour in Trastevere

About this experience

Twilight Food Tour in Trastevere This four-hour evening food tour takes you through Trastevere, Rome's most authentic neighbourhood, where cobblestone streets hide family-run trattorias and century-old food traditions. Led by a local foodie guide, you will explore winding alleys and taste the dishes that Romans actually eat, from crispy supplì street snacks to handmade pasta classics like cacio e pepe and amatriciana. Your small group of maximum 12 people visits celebrated local spots including Da Enzo al 29 and Spirito di Vino, restaurants beloved by Romans for their commitment to traditional recipes. At Norcineria di Iacozzilli, a family butcher shop with over 100 years of history, you will sample rich porchetta prepared using techniques passed down through generations. The tour includes skip-the-line access to busy venues, so you spend more time eating and less time waiting. Beyond the food, your guide shares stories about Trastevere's history and teaches you to spot authentic artisanal gelato from tourist traps. You will meet local purveyors and discover the stories behind Rome's culinary culture. During the visit, the guide serves carefully selected regional wines alongside non-alcoholic beverages to accompany the tastings.
