About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Danny F0 contributionsbooked 3 private tours and each one was better than the one beforeFound Local Aromas on tik tok and fell in love with the sisters. Booked the 30 min consultation - was super helpful. Booked 3 tour with them! And each one was great. 1st did olive oil tasting and private home cooked dinner. Got to explore at different party of Rome. Benny was so warm and welcoming. Learned so much about olive oils and are forever changed. Never buy in plastic. Worth spending the money on good oil. Plus learning the different spice levels. Was very impressed. Clara cooked a simple but perfectly delicious meal. Getting to sit in someone’s dinning room felt so warm and amazing. Felt like was at friends apt for dinner. This was the best part of our two weeks in Italy. 2nd did food tour with focus around the Jewish ghetto. Guide was warm and friendly. She knew so much and really provided a deep understanding of the history and melding of food with the times. Was great way to have private tour as it really was perfectly customized. More than enough food. Did it mid late afternoon. Instead of dinner we went back to a few of the shops our guid showed us and ended up having a picnic in bed after a long day walking Rome. 3rd was the aperitivo tour. Great way to experience the chill and fun daily activity. Was wonderful have a guide that was easy to talk to and understand local culture. Perfect evening to explore the local spots and feel like was out with a girlfriend. The mix of different pairings was nice to really understand what spirits and small bites like best. Can’t recommend this company more. Worth every penny.Written 19 December 2024
- U6212MUlaurena0 contributionsGreat food tour!My family and I just took the walking street food tour in Rome. Our tour guide was Deborah and she grew up around Rome. She was very knowledgeable not only on the different foods but also buildings and history. Food was amazing! Definitely recommend this tour :)Written 28 September 2024
- 182deandrab0 contributionsHistory, Culture, & FOOD!Sara narrated key historical highlights that contribute to the culture of the Roman people. She then showed us how this unique heritage is reflected in the food. And oh my! I don’t think I’ve tasted anything as amazing as the suppli. Along the way, she pointed out great local spots to try for a full meal. This tour is the right balance of walking and sampling - we left feeling satisfied, but not overstuffed. Highly recommend!Written 28 September 2024
- RitainRome0 contributionsRoman Street Food Tour with MargheritaOur family did a Roman Street Food Tour with Margherita. She was so lovely and gave us great insight into the history of Roman street food. We had so many delicious dishes. Our favorite was Il Trapezzino and also the gelato was out of this world. I would definitely recommend using Local Aromas while in Rome!Written 25 September 2023
- lnowlin20180 contributionsGreat educationGreat experience! Benny was fun, knowledgeable, kind and interesting! The shop was so cute and the people were warm and friendlyWritten 7 June 2023
- 740evep0 contributionsBest Tour In RomeThe entire experience was beyond fantastic! The ladies were so wonderful and fun to spend the day with, not to mention my nephew and husband didn't want to leave the place! Between the views and the company (and great food and wine), we will always include an event with Local Aroma when we are in Italy!!!Written 17 November 2022
- jennbigioni0 contributionsAmazing experience for our family!One of our favourite experiences while in Rome was our food tour with Benny. We spent the evening with her on the day we arrived, and it was a great decision. What a perfect way to eat in Rome, while learning all about some of the best food. Benny is a wealth of knowledge, and by the end of the tour, she felt like a friend. Even recommended my sister-in-law and mother-in-law do this same tour when they arrived a few days later. Can't thank Benny enough for her time, and the fun we had. Grazie!Written 15 September 2022
- TWCCharlotte_NC0 contributionsFour Roman Pastas tourDid a private food tour in Trastevere in Rome (Four Roman Pastas) - we had a wonderful time, learned a lot about italian pastas and cooking, and couldn't say enough about Benny - she was a great person and guide!Written 5 June 2022
- MKTtravel1020270 contributionsUnique Private Tour in RomeWe tend to avoid tours whenever possible but with private craft beer and pizza tasting seemed too unique and interesting to pass on. We brought our 2 year old with us and the entire experience was perfect. Local Aromas was very flexible with finding a tour time that worked for us and the communications and meeting spot were perfect. We toured with Eric, who was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He was great with our child and made sure we all had a great experience. Even making a bonus stop so our son could get gelato! The restaurants he picked served great pizza and beer and Eric helped you make selections and gave some helpful tips along the way. Also offered great information for other things we can do while in Rome. If you like pizza and beer, do not pass on this tour!Written 26 May 2022
- Connector6493840 contributionsWhen in Rome!Local Aromas is the best of the best. The family brings Rome and Roman cuisine to life in such interesting, knowledgeable, and imaginative ways. When in Rome, time with Local Aromas is time very well spent.Written 22 April 2022
- Crysrose290 contributionsLocal Aroma Love!This was an amazing experience. At first I was skeptical, especially being alone, however once I arrived inside the apartment, my mind was immediately put at ease. I was supposed to be cooking in a group of 8, with another couple and a family. However, with a last minute cancellation, there were only 3 of us, with our chef and host. We began with some Prosecco, and tiramisu in order to allow it to set. Then we moved on to ravioli and gnocchi. The views of the Vatican were amazing during the entire class, where we worked in the kitchen overseeing the dome. With such a small group, we were able to spread out, but regardless, both our host and chef were welcoming, answered lots of questions, and continued to wine and dine us. We sampled olive oils and salts in between cooking courses. When the final touches were being put on our plates, we were escorted into the dining room, over looking the sunset on the other side of the apartment to relax and enjoy more sparkling wine. The food was exquisite, and so filling! What a perfect end to my Italian journey. Thank you Local Aromas!Written 16 July 2020
- kbpvpf0 contributionsA Valentine's Day for the Books!I took the group cooking class on Valentine's Day, and I am so glad that I did. Carla and Giulia welcomed me with open arms, and were great hosts, chefs and photographers. I do not cook at home, but I loved the class, and the other two couples were lovely. The view from the location is absolutely exquisite. The cooking instruction is clear and easy, but the recipes are also sophisticated and delicious. After we cooked, we were led into a candlelit room to enjoy our dinner. Wine is served throughout. :-) By the time the class ended, I felt like I had 6 new friends. Carla and Giulia also recommended locations for a birthday party for my mother, and helped me find a cab to a party I had to attend after the class. If you want to do something authentic in Rome (even as a solo traveler), schedule this first, and plan everything else around this. Also, Local Aromas will send you restaurant recommendations and a recap of the recipes. Until next time!Written 21 March 2020
- carias3mcvj0 contributionsCooking Italian Dishes overlooking Vatican CityChef Christina and Bruno were fantastic. My wife and I loved this experience. It was fun, relaxing, and we really got to be involved in learning how to cook. Prosecco was served CG was delicious. The view of the dome of St Peters Basilica is breath taking. And then best of all, eating the meal after is delicious and served with a delicious bottle of red wine. This was a truly great experience . My wife and I did this on our honeymoon and truly enjoyed it.Written 14 March 2020

- 326victoriaz0 contributionsBest experience and memory of RomeA great way to relax, learn, and enjoy the food of Rome: by taking a cooking class with Local Aromas! Our daughters bought this class as a Christmas gift, otherwise we would not have thought to do it on our own. We were so glad that we did- it was the highlight of our visit to Rome! When we arrived we were greeted with the happy, welcoming smiles of host Guila, and Chef Christina. We were then surprised that we were the only participants that evening: for the 5pm Roman Dinner- being a Monday night and in February- we were lucky. Guila is our going and friendly as the host matching perfectly with Christina’s more demure personality (and lesser English speaking skills.). They worked perfectly together. We made tiramisu, dough for the ravioli, filled the ravioli, learned how to make potato gnocchi, we drank Prosecco while cooking and enjoying the sunset view and then dined in a beautiful candlelit setting with a nighttime view of the city. Wonderful!Written 20 February 2020

Our tasting dinner with Valeria was absolutely wonderful! Leading up to our visit, we had been looking for a tour/activity focused on the 4 Roman pastas, and this experience could not have been more perfect. My wife, Valeria and I spent several hours at a restaurant in Trastevere sampling the 4 dishes (each tastier than the next) and getting to know one another. Valeria was friendly, charming, knowledgeable and a fantastic teacher. It was a phenomenal evening from start to finish, and I would (and will) highly recommend it to others!

Hello Nate,
Francesca has a heart of gold and a very contagious smile! I am so happy to read that you enjoyed indulging in all 4 Roman Pastas and what makes them up! It is fun tasting them all, knowing about how they came to be, the amazing ingredients that compose them!
If to that you add a vibrant and fun neighborhood like Trastevere, then it could not be more local!!
I look forward to having you back with us and THANK YOU for having taken the time to share!
Grazie
Benedetta

Met our guide and took a leisurely stroll to sample some local meats and cheeses then we arrived at the restaurant for the main event. The pastas and wine were excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. Our guide answered our questions and provided interesting stories about the Trastevere neighborhood. After dinner, we continued our stroll and had some gelato; the gelato was about average. Highly recommend.

Francesca was wonderfully knowledgable and friendlier than you can imagine. We had an excellent time walking through Trastevere. The cheeses (parmigiano and pecorino) and meats (guanciale and prosciutto) that started the tour were delicious and the shop owner was so kind and welcoming. The 4 pastas and the wine we had with them were exquisite and Francesca explained how each of the pastas was made. We ended the evening with some of the tastiest gelato in Rome. The food was tantalizing, the company was enchanting, and I was full by the end of the tour. Absolutely worth the money! Not too much walking, plenty of food.

Dear Brittany,
Francesca, parmigiano, pecorino, guanciale, prosciutto, wine, the 4 Roman pastas and then gelato!!! What an AMAZING mix right??? I am so happy to read that you had such a great time.
Francesca is extremily passionate (as you probaly noticed yourself) about food, and her personality just sparks joy. To this, you add all that deliciousness and you do get a magical evening. And I could not be happier!
Grazie for taking the time to write such a lovely review and for sharing all this on Trip Advisor. I really really appreciate it!

Jasmine was a fabulous host and the restaurant in Trastevere was the perfect venue. We finagled a visit to the wine cellar and were blown away. Ask to see the immense books of red and white wines. The pasta was a revelation. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a unique italian experience.
