Amazing - Monti Neighbourhood Local Food Tour - Our Show me Italy - Monti Neighbourhood Local Food Tour was an absolute highlight of our time in Italy! If you want to get away from the tourist traps and experience the authentic soul of Roman cuisine, this is the tour for you. ​Our guide, Ruchika, was simply fantastic. From the moment we met, she was incredibly warm and welcoming. It felt less like a formal tour and more like walking through the city with a knowledgeable friend. Her expertise and passion for the area were evident in every story she shared; she is truly knowledgeable about the history and hidden gems of the Monti Food district ​This tour is a deep dive into the amazing local food culture. We didn't just eat; we learned about the traditions behind the tastes. Every stop offered something delicious and authentic, capturing the true essence of Rome Food.. ​We are very thankful for such a wonderful experience. Thank you, Ruchika, for a memory we will cherish (and for the very full !! stomachs)!!!

Amazing food and wine and Emily was super fun, friendly and really knowledgeable about the local food scene and she also had lots of interesting information on the history of Roman & Italian food and wine. Would recommend this tour with Emily, an enjoyable & fun evening.

A great experience - Enjoyable food tour experience, starting with a delicious aperitivo. The guide was so friendly, and professional. All locations were close to each other and well organized. I especially loved the pizza, supplì, and the Amatriciana pasta. The gelato at the end was amazing. A great experience from start to finish.

The perfect way to get to know Monti - This was the first thing we did after landing in Rome and it was the perfect start to our visit. Lisa is a great host and does a wonderful job of not only showing you where to go but also the history behind it. I couldn't recommend this experience enough especially if you will be in the Monti area!

Great introduction to Rome - This was such a great way to start our trip to Rome. Having Lisa show us and our three teenage boys around was like visiting with an old friend. Her knowledge of the area and the food itself made us more brave and interested in trying new things for the duration of our trip.
