Good
The tour was nice. Tour guide was good, knowledgeable, not Italian. We thought we may hear from the shop owners more, but apart from over drink venue we waited outside while guide purchased food. Food was nice, but getting half a donut felt cheap.

Fun and fantastic guide, great food. Lots of variety, well organized.( A little more walking than I expected, but very do-able.)

This tour was fabulous! From Mattia (sorry if I spelled his name wrong) to the history given along the way to the amazing food! You'll get a good walk, knowledge for your brain & your taste buds will thank you. Mattia is a self-proclaimed foodie whose passion is infectious. Starting this tour later in the day allows you to be led through Rome at night, just magical. Thank you, Mattia.

Our guide Matia was excellent, energetic, well-informed, and passionate about Rome and the family food venues that we visited. We highly recommend him! An excellent tour if you want to learn about the "real" Rome and some of the culinary history of Italy.

Chiara was familiar with parts and places in Rome that we would not have tried or seen if we didnt do the Devour Tour. She was knowledgeable about customs and culture and shared the Italian culture and tastes with us. Everything we tasted was delicious. We were completely satisfied with the quality of the tour and Chiara, our guide, made it a lot of fun!
