Rome Chocolate Tour: Local Craft, Delis and Gourmet Tastings

Embark on a delicious chocolate-themed adventure through Rome, weaving through historic streets and artisanal treasures. Begin near Santa Maria sopra Minerva, where you'll visit a charming cioccolateria artigianale known for its handcrafted bonbons—delicate bites filled with hazelnut praline, citrus zest, and velvety liqueurs. Continue your stroll along Via del Corso, pausing at a time-honored pasticceria renowned for its classic Roman treats, including bigné al cioccolato and biscotti with chocolate and hazelnuts. After making your way toward Piazza Sant’Ignazio, home to a famous gelateria that created the original gelato tartufo, cross the Tiber River at Ponte Sisto to explore Trastevere, one of Rome’s most picturesque and lively neighborhoods. Near Santa Maria in Trastevere, you’ll find a hidden boutique offering artisanal chocolate bars infused with Mediterranean flavors like rosemary, sea salt, and toasted hazelnuts from the Cimini Mountains north of the city.
