What to expect
You'll start at your hotel and be driven to your first stop for breakfast—a genuine Italian coffee and pastry experience. From there, the golf cart becomes your transport between family-run delis, trattorias, and gelato shops. At each location, your guide explains what you're eating: why Romans prepare fried foods a certain way, which wines match which dishes, how pasta traditions vary by neighbourhood. You're not sitting at a single long table; you're moving through the city, tasting in portions, standing where locals do. Expect cobblestones, narrow streets, and the rhythm of real Roman life around you.
