- Prosecco or Spritz
Prosecco DOC, the Italian version of bubbly. While sipping, learn the history and the difference between Prosecco and Champagne.
Created in the region of Venice, a traditional Spritz is a blend of white sparkling wine, or soda and local liquors. This combination has become the most popular Aperitivo in Italy. Learn the secrets of how to prepare the original recipe, and what food pairings go with this drink. Be careful, Spritz are addictive! - Italian Lager Beer
Nothing goes better with pizza than beer. An Italian lager is light and fresh, perfect for the hot Roman climate! Italian lagers are something all beer lovers must try, on our tour we have selected the two most popular varieties for you to try; Menabrea and Ichnusa. - Local Organic Wine
Add the flavour of the Roman countryside to your Aperitivo. Taste a great full body Montepulciano red or a mineral white Malvasia. Each one cultivated and fermented by natural and eco-friendly methods. Our local organic wines preserve all the fragrances and richness locals expect from our wines. Learn why a wine is "organic" or "biologico," and how much effort it takes on the part of the winemaker to deliver something this unique.

WHY THE HISTORICAL CENTRE?
We chose the historical centre of Rome because it has the most to offer in terms of culture, history and of course wonderful food. This is where most of the fascinating Roman ruins are found, many of them well over 2000 years old, and the food is just delicious if you know where to go.

Unfortunately, the weather is unpredictable in Rome. We do not issue refunds as per our terms and conditions. We also inform you that we never cancel a booking even if we have only 2 people!

Why do we need to pay for booking fee?
The booking fee that you have to pay is up to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.
Foreign Transaction Fees
A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us in your bank statement and we will refund this fee as a gesture of good will.
