Fabulous food tour!

This was a great walking tour to learn some history of Trastevere while sampling the local cuisine. We made 5 stops along the way which include wine and beer at two of the places. The food was delicious and was quite filling as the night went on. Our guide was very knowledgeable and pointed out some interesting buildings that i wouldn’t have taken a second glance at if not on the tour.
