Rome Food Tasting Tour
by Golf Cart
Rome is best understood through its food. If you are looking for a Rome food tasting tour that avoids a long walk across the city, this private guided tasting takes you through the dishes that define Rome — pizza al taglio, supplì, pecorino, cacio e pepe, porchetta and gelato — one authentic stop at a time.
No tourist traps. Your local driver takes you to the delis, bakeries and family-run kitchens Romans actually queue for. This Rome food tasting tour is private, flexible and designed for guests who want to eat well without spending the whole day on foot. The tour price covers your private golf cart and driver; food and wine are paid directly at each stop, so you order exactly what you feel like. Come hungry — there's plenty to taste.

Pizza al taglio & supplì
We begin with Rome's everyday icons: crisp, wood-fired pizza al taglio sold by weight, and supplì — golden fried rice croquettes with a molten mozzarella heart, the Roman cousin of the Sicilian arancino.
Pecorino, salumi & the market
At a historic deli near Campo de' Fiori we taste sharp aged pecorino romano, creamy burrata, and thinly sliced salumi like prosciutto and mortadella — the foundation of any Roman table.
Cacio e pepe in Trastevere
We cross the river into Trastevere for the dish that defines the city: cacio e pepe, made the proper way with just pecorino, black pepper and pasta water — or its richer cousin, carbonara.
Porchetta & a glass of wine
A slice of porchetta — herb-roasted suckling pork from the Castelli Romani hills — paired with a glass of Lazio wine, the way Romans pause in the middle of the day.
Maritozzo or artisan gelato
We finish sweet: a maritozzo split and filled with whipped cream, or a cone of real artisan gelato — seasonal, made fresh, no industrial shortcuts.

Rome food tasting tour FAQ
What will we eat on the food tour?
Pizza al taglio, supplì, cured meats and cheese, and gelato to finish — tasted where Romans actually buy them rather than where the tour buses stop. The tour price covers your private golf cart and driver; food and drinks are paid directly at each stop, so you only pay for what you choose to taste.
How is this different from a walking food tour?
You are driven between the tastings instead of walking them. That means more neighbourhoods in the same time, and a food tour that works in August heat or for anyone who does not want to walk for three hours.
Can you cater for allergies or a vegetarian diet?
Yes — tell us when you book and we plan the stops around it. Vegetarian works easily; coeliac and severe allergies we handle case by case, so let us know in advance.
Is the food tour suitable for children?
Very much so. Portions are shared, the pace is relaxed, and pizza and gelato tend to solve most disagreements.
When does it run?
Late afternoon and evening departures work best, when the food shops are at their liveliest — but we run it whenever suits your day.
