More than food tour, experience combining food, history and joyful time! - The tour with Roberto was an amazing, unique experience. He has an exceptional knowledge of Italian cuisine (being a professional cook himself), has a great knowledge of Aosta Valley and is a great companion to spend time together.

Excellent way to learn more about Aosta - An excellent way to learn more about Aosta and the tasty kitchen of the valley. We loved especially the visit in the cheese cave where so many pieces of cheese were stored and the tasting in the neighbouring "grotta". Many thanks to our well prepared and super nice guide that made the food tour to a beautiful memory for our family. This is a tour we would love to recommend to our friends.

A new way to learn about valdostano food!! - Katya was such a fun tour guide who complimented our food tasting with information about the history of the region Valle d'Aosta, ways of rural life and traditions and more details of the local dialect and french influence. Good amount of food! Tasted some local wine, cheese, meats and pasta!! And we went to cool looking places i would not have found on my own. I am not giving this a five star because the Company still needs to improve their coordination with the local businesses. A couple of places were not aware that we were stopping by for the tour and we had to wait for higher-ups to agree with what the tasting would entail. Fortunately Katya was able to take care of everything while keeping a smile.

Never again - What a joke. We were a family of 6 looking for a nice food tour in Aosta. The tour description advertised for a Local «Expert», with a tour through several nice local restaurants. What happened is a complete tourist trap. We paid 685 Europa for 6 people, so over 110 eur per person for a nice lady joining us for: -1x wine glass and cheese plate at average streetside restaurant - 1x strange Local lasagne with a glass of wine and beer - cappuccino and gelato from street side vendor All in all, the value provided is a complete rip off when the guide doesnt provide any local information or «anectdotes». The guide was nice, but its like paying 400 euro for a young woman to follow you for 3 hours. Will think twice moving forward before paying for a «food» Expert when in fact its just a tourist trap looking for easy money hiring Local hotel receptionist to skim tourists. Never again.
