Description:

Tour a local market to learn the secret for great Italian foods, chat with vendors, and sample some local delicacies. Drop by some of the best meat and cheese stores for delicious tastings and then enter a pizzeria before opening to roll, top, and bake your own pizza.

Your tour starts, as all great Roman meals do, with some nibbles. Visit a local produce market with your guide to learn more about the importance of seasonality in Italian cooking and how to choose the best ingredients. Along the way, meet local vendors including a family that has been selling their own olive oil here for 100 years. Grab some bread for dipping and sample olive oils, spreads, and sauces.

Stop at some of the best local food shops to sample more Italian specialties such as pecorino cheese, salami, and Parma ham. Have more chats with local vendors—because who knows Italian food better than they do?

The last stop of the morning is a sure highlight. Enter a very popular pizzeria before opening time and learn how to roll your own dough before adding your favorite toppings and sliding your pizza into the huge wood-burning oven. Try your own creation with your group and get some tips on where to eat during your trip. Finish up your fantastic Italian meal with some of the best coffee in Rome.
