Experience an authentic food journey through the heart of Testaccio, one of Rome’s most traditional and genuine areas. The tour begins with a taste of delicious Roman-style pizza from a local pizzeria, where you’ll taste the simplicity and flavour of real Roman cuisine.
Next, we’ll explore the bustling Testaccio market — a vibrant hub full of aromas, stories, and local traditions. Here, you’ll sample two more typical Roman specialities, carefully selected from the most beloved stalls.
The most unique part of the tour is a hidden cave beneath Monte dei Cocci, a fascinating underground space where ancient Romans once stored food and wine. Thanks to its constant year-round temperature of around 10°C (50°F), it's the perfect place to preserve flavours and history. Here, you'll enjoy a refined tasting of excellent cheeses and cured meats, paired with a carefully selected glass of wine.
The tour ends with a refreshing artisanal gelato, the perfect sweet note to complete your taste of real Rome.
