Foodie tips
Get more out of every meal.
Book 2-3 days ahead in spring and autumn; classes and group walks have caps of about 10 people.
Arrive hungry: street-food walks with 6-8 tastings replace a meal.
Tell the operator about allergies and dietary needs at booking; many tastings are pizza, fried food or seafood.
Prices on third-party sites vary by currency and group size; the figures here are approximate and converted at 1 EUR = $1.15.
Meeting points are usually Piazza Dante or Piazza Municipio; both are served by Metro Line 1 (Dante and Municipio stations).
Tour operators sell through Viator, GetYourGuide, Expedia and their own sites: check the booking confirmation for the exact spot and the operator's emergency phone number.
