# Half-Day Small Group Food and Wine Tasting Tour in Rome

**Guidekin's take:** A four hour evening walk from Campo de' Fiori to Trastevere in a group capped at sixteen, tasting at local eateries with Italian wines before a full supper in a Roman trattoria. All food and wine and the guide are included at €75 per person, pickup and tips are not. Moderate walking, and dietary needs must be flagged at booking.
