Tour details

This dessert tour of Rome will make you taste the typical sweets of our capital city. At the same time, you will discover some of its famous sights, while learning interesting stories about the Eternal City. It’s a food tour all about sweetness!

The meeting point with your tour guide is at the exit of the metro station OTTAVIANO (A line), a stone’s throw from the Vatican City. You start off your journey into sweetness at the bakery La Dolce Maniera, where you can have a foamy cappuccino, matched with a lovely Maritozzo con la Panna (a pastry roll filled with whipped cream). If you’re wondering… yes you can dunk it into the cappuccino!

After this delicious breakfast, you will have time to visit Saint Peter’s Square, learn about the story of the Papacy in Rome, and enjoy a refreshing drink while sightseeing.. Then this dessert tour of Rome continues on with a stop at the Castel Sant’Angelo, to take a picture of this magnificent building. Here your guide will tell you the secrets of the place, which had many different functions: mausoleum of the Emperor Hadrian, fortress of the Popes, prison…

After that, it’s gelato time. Located on Via dei Coronari, one of the most picturesque alleyways of the city center, la Gelateria del Teatro offers a great selection of flavours, all freshly made right in front of you!

Then, on the way to Piazza Navona, we’ll stop to taste on the most iconic Italian dessert, the famous Tiramisù. Once reached Piazza Navona, your guide will point out the most significant items on the square, and lead you further to get to the Pantheon, where the tour ends.

It wouldn’t be a true Italian dessert tour, though, if we weren’t to have an espresso before finishing the tour! The right place is exactly the Pantheon, with two renown cafes (Sant’Eustachio and la Tazza d’Oro) nearby.
