Taste Roman street food and explore the Ghetto, Largo Argentina and Piazza Navona on a small-group walk with a local guide.

About this tour

Follow the aromas of fresh pizza and fried supplì through Rome’s historic lanes on a 150-minute street food walk. With a local guide, explore the Ghetto, Largo Argentina and Piazza Navona, tasting Roman favorites along the way, including skewers, seasonal artichokes, gelato and tiramisu. The route pairs food with neighborhood stories and a stop at a leather shop when it is open.

Small groups of up to 10 make it easier to ask questions and take in the details. You’ll also receive a digital mini-guide to Rome’s best restaurants. Bring a refillable bottle, too: your guide can introduce you to the city’s public drinking fountains and the local habit of filling up at a nasoni.

This Rome Street Food Tour brings together traditional flavors, craft and everyday city life in one walk. Come hungry and discover a delicious side of Rome, one neighborhood and tasting at a time.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 27 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.2. Top 11% in Rome means it ranks in the top 11% of tours in Rome by this score.
