Food tours in Rome?
Hi All, in another of my treads about fun things to do with my 13 yr old daughter on an upcoming trip to Rome (3 nights) a Food tour was suggested, have many of you done them and have you any recommendations, are they very expensive? I think this might be more fun that a cookery course (which I would love but my boyfriend might not!) I see http://www.eatingitalyfoodtours.com do evenings tours, would this be better as it will be August so I imagine it will be a little bit cooler by evening time! This might also free up daytime for sightseeing!
As always, thanks so much for any suggestions given

We used http://www.foodtoursofrome.com/ and the do offer discounts to kids - I'm not sure what the cut off age for kids was, but both of mine qualified! It seems some tours are much more expensive than others. The prices are listed on their website. As I mentioned, we were very happy with ours. And I did enjoy doing ours at night - like you mentioned, it freed up our day for sightseeing and it was our meal for that night. It was easily 4 - 5 hours long though. So be prepared!
