    Getting started

    Meet your guide under the Brazilian flag outside the Brazilian Embassy in Piazza Navona N.14. Then set off on a gastronomic extravaganza in the heart of Rome.

    What to expect

    Start with an authentic espresso or cappuccino at one of Rome’s oldest cafés, then follow your expert guide through colorful Campo de’ Fiori or down lamp-lit streets at twilight. Sample hot pizza by the slice, crispy supplí (fried risotto balls), and sharp Pecorino Romano from a historic market. Stop at a gourmet salumeria for cured meats and artisan cheeses, paired with a thoughtful selection of local pours.

    Take a seat at a beloved Roman trattoria for two classic pastas, and wrap it all up with a crisp cannoli and a scoop of creamy gelato. Of course, the highlight is the secret surprise dish you’ll only discover on the tour. Along the way, you'll pass historic monuments, tucked-away alleyways, and charming hidden spots that most travelers miss.

    Whether you choose the morning or evening tour, one thing’s for sure: you’ll leave with a full belly and a deeper love for Roman cuisine.
