Private and Walking Food Tour and Roman tradition

Walking across Tiber Island, we reach Trastevere on the right bank of the Tiber. Trastevere developed as an area for merchants, sailors, fishermen and foreigners. It maintains its old character: cobbled streets, ancient houses and artisan workshops. This is the perfect place to taste typical Roman food. We visit picturesque food shops and talk with the owners. Thanks to anecdotes and old pictures we have the occasion to discover another aspect of the city. We stop in an artisan bakery, Innocenti, where you can find tasty cookies and traditional cakes. We visit Antica Caciara, an historical shop where shepherds used to bring their "caci" (cheese). There we taste different varieties of Italian cheese, prosciutto, and salami. And what about a stop for a gourmet gelato made only with the freshest ingredients? Walking along, exploring the area, and tasting different foods, we reach the award-winning Bistrot il Maritozzo Rosso where we sample traditional pasta and savory maritozzi.
