# Trastevere street food and history: expert-led small group tour

**Guidekin's take:** Trastevere street food with the history attached: a Jewish style artichoke or a courgette flower with a glass of wine, supplì, a Roman pizza specialty and gelato, in a small group or a premium tier capped at eight. Tastings, a wine and a beer are included at €45 per person, pickup is not. Reduced rates for under eighteens, and it runs in rain.
