The lovely and fun company of Duné made our day, she's absolutely amazing and entertained us for the whole time, sharing so many insights about the town and its people - we felt like getting to know the place from the inside! The district stays authentic and a little bit out-of-the-beaten-track despite Rome being so full of tourists, which is a great plus - do not miss it! Wonderful discoveries and great vibe overall, thank you for the day!…”

9.Testaccio Experience: Street Food, Market and Traditions

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 4 reviews · from $100

Walk from Trastevere to Testaccio with a local English-speaking guide, tasting maritozzo, tripe, fried supplì, regional cheese, Roman pasta, wine, and dessert. Guides such as Marica and Manuela have led warm, personal tours through the market, family-run food stops, and everyday Roman traditions.

“Marica was a great tour guide. There was a discrepancy with the tour start time 10am vs 10:30 from the company that had nothing to do with her. She was there on time and gave us her background and got started. The tour was set up excellent in terms of the pace and the food. It was so nice to learn the history of the area, food, and its people. The market was wonderful and we would have loved to spend more time there after the tour. Food was scrumptious and different than the Rome typical tourist food - no pasta, pizza, or gelato here!”
