Day 1: Foodie Delights
Kick off your Roman adventure with a mouthwatering food tour that promises to tantalise your taste buds and leave you craving more!
Join our local foodie expert for a journey through the vibrant neighbourhoods of Campo de’ Fiori, the Jewish Ghetto, and Trastevere, where culinary delights await at every turn.
Campo de’ Fiori Market sets the stage for your gastronomic adventure, offering a feast for the senses with its colourful array of fresh produce and artisanal treats. Dive into the local food scene with a stop at one of Rome’s oldest bakeries, where you can indulge in delectable pastries and savoury slices of “Pizza al Taglio.”
But the real fun begins as you dive into Rome’s culinary classics! From creamy Carbonara to zesty Cacio e Pepe and hearty Amatriciana, you’ll taste your way through Rome’s iconic dishes, each bursting with flavour and history.
Forget formalities—this tour is all about having a blast while discovering the heart and soul of Roman cuisine. So, grab your appetite and get ready for a foodie adventure like no other!
Day 2: Pizza Party and Tea Time Treats
Get ready to roll up your sleeves and unleash your inner pizzaiolo with our Pizza Making Class, where you’ll master the art of crafting Italy’s most beloved culinary treasures: pizza and gelato. Say arrivederci to store-bought pies and gelato, and ciao to homemade deliciousness!
Join us at our charming 17th-century palazzo near Piazza Navona or our state-of-the-art cooking school near the Pantheon. Sip on a glass of Prosecco or local wine and savour delectable appetizers as you prepare to embark on your culinary journey.
Under the guidance of our English-speaking Italian chef, you’ll learn the ancient techniques of dough kneading and pizza shaping. Don’t worry if your pizza doesn’t resemble the Neapolitan style—our Roman pizza boasts a thin, crunchy crust bursting with flavour! From classic Margheritas to gourmet creations adorned with prosciutto and olives, the choice is yours.
Once your pizza masterpiece is in the oven, it’s time to indulge in a sumptuous afternoon tea at Velo, the enchanting tea room at The First Roma Dolce hotel. Pastry prodigy Chef Andrea Cingottini welcomes you with a tantalizing array of mignon pastries, chocolate pralines, and exquisite cakes, both classic and modern.
Satisfy your sweet tooth with a selection of chocolates, paired perfectly with one of 22 infusions ranging from delicate White Rose tea to robust Matcha. Then, let Luigi Traettino, our expert mixologist, dazzle your taste buds with a signature cocktail, blending infusions and spirits for the ultimate Italian aperitivo experience.
Indulge in a day of culinary delights and Italian hospitality, where every bite and sip is a celebration of la dolce vita!

With your bags brimming with delicious finds, head to an exclusive apartment in the heart of the Eternal City to begin your cooking adventure. Under the expert guidance of our chef, roll up your sleeves and learn the art of pasta-making, crafting delicate ravioli or silky fettuccine from scratch.
As you prepare the remaining dishes, soak up the culinary wisdom of our chef, who will share insider tips and techniques to elevate your cooking skills to new heights. From appetizers to desserts, each course is a celebration of Italy’s rich culinary heritage.
