Kid-Friendly Food Tours in Rome

If you are a foodie family planning a trip to Italy we got you covered! We offer kid-friendly food tours in Rome that will suit the young, the old and everyone in between. Our kid-friendly food tours in Rome are also delicious ways to discover some culinary culture during your Italian vacation and try specialty foods that you may not discover on your own. Lastly, our private foodie tours are a great chance to teach your children about where food comes from, and how to try new things.

What to expect in this kid-friendly private tour of Rome?

Italian food, culture, history and a lot of fun! This experiential tour includes a behind the scenes look at the terrific 150-year-old market, several stops at various vendors with a bit of history, architecture and fun facts thrown in as well. You will discover the family-run bakeries, old-fashioned corner stores, countless ice cream parlors, and fresh produce stands along the trail while sampling tempting street food.

From ancient history and fine art to a booming food scene, Rome has it all – and mixing it up is the best way to enjoy the Eternal City. Feast your eyes on this walking tour, which reveals the amazing flavors and culture of Rome. Stroll along the cobblestone lanes and piazzas of what was once the Capital of the Ancient World. Explore beautiful spots by eating your way through the Campo de Fiori market streets. Learn the storied history behind the buildings, fountains, and piazzas that you pass with an expert local guide on hand answering any of your questions.

However, the best thing in this family adventure is the hands-on experience. This tour takes you to locally owned specialty shops and historical markets where each vendor is a true artist who loves to share its craft. Combining a taste of local culture with an exploration of its food, we offer junior foodies and their parents too an authentic behind the scenes learning experience.

Who will be Your Tour Guide?

You will experience the delicious side of the Eternal City and some key sites in the company of one of our passionate guides. Your private guide won’t only take you to our personally vetted specialty spots, but can fill you in on how Roman street food is made and its history.

All of our kid-friendly tour guides are also culinary experts who beyond their infectious enthusiasm for the foods of Rome share their encyclopedic knowledge of the city they live in and love.

Why Choosing this Tour?

Undoubtedly, art and history are essential to an authentic Roman experience, but if you want to go beyond traditional sightseeing why not try a food tour instead? Hence, fancy a morning stroll with us celebrating the city culinary scene plus some must-sees. Our kid-friendly food tours in Rome combine some of the city’s most authentic and historic neighborhoods with yummy treats along the way.

Team up with local life. Your guide will introduce you to our favorite street food stalls and specialty culinary stores. Our guides have fostered relationships with the vendors, who make this food scene unique, and this allows rare peeks into bakers’ ovens and chats with the locals.

The bottom line? Our private food tours in Rome are a unique and engaging way to get your children interested in Italy’s food culture. Moreover, they will be so entertained that will not ever notice they are learning!

Good to Know: Our kid-friendly food tours in Rome are offered Monday through Saturday morning because food markets close for the day at about 2pm. The same goes for public holidays when food markets and eateries close.

Bonus: The Rome food scene is overwhelming and we do not want to limit your choices. Therefore, rather than offering preset foods at each stop you can try the food YOU crave!

Highly personalized service: This is a private family tour curated to your preferences not to mention that each itinerary is tailored to the tastes of the guests. Because of this during the booking process, you will have the chance to tell our Italian-based team how we can customize it to accommodate your food allergies, dietary needs, or other special requirements.

TESTIMONIALS

I am so sorry I have taken so long to get back to you guys. Our trip to Italy was absolutely wonderful and unforgettable. Our walking food tour of Rome was certainly one of the highlights! Our guide was extremely friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. It was like seeing the city with a friend. Not only did we appreciate all the wonderful places she took us to eat and discover, but also loved the historical facts on Rome she shared with us along the way.
As far as the questionnaire below, I would rate each item as excellent. I would definitely recommend Nancy Aiello Tours to family and friends. The way I came across this tour company was by doing a Google search. I saw that USA Today had done a very favorable article on this tour company, and that sealed the deal for me. Thank you again! Cannot wait to use you guys again in the future!

Hello,
My children and I enjoyed our tours very much!
Our overall experience was fantastic!
The booking process was easy. The person I communicated with, Ann, was very professional and helpful. Both tours were great. Our guides for each tour Cynthia for the Vatican, Laura for the Colosseum were very knowledgeable and interesting. They kept my children engaged, and moved the tour along at a pace that worked well for us. My children said they’d rather learn about the world with private tour guides like the ladies we met in Rome, than by going back to their classrooms. I would you recommend Nancy Aiello Tours to families and friends. I came across Nancy Aiello Tours through Ciao Bambino website. Thanks for providing such a wonderful service. Our trip to Rome and our understanding of the various sites would not have been the same without your excellent tour guides.
Sincerely,

Excellent experience – from the booking through the actual tours. We appreciated having the same tour guide (Laura) for both our evening tour and our walking tour of old Rome. Our experience with Nancy Aiello Tours was enlightening. I booked the tours because it was my family’s first visit to Rome and I wanted to ensure that they had an understanding of the history and saw the highlights. My sister and I have been to Rome several times (walking with a guide book, taking big bus tours for a day, etc) but we “saw” so much more on our tours with Laura. I have already recommended you to a colleague who will be in Rome with his family in November. I had googled “what to do with kids in Rome” and found a mommy travel blog that recommended your agency, so I took a look at your website and decided to ask some questions (less than 2 weeks before our arrival in Rome). We were fortunate enough to book 2 different tours.
