Food and wine tour - Lorenzo was amazing, friendly, and outgoing! The different little street foods were amazing to try! I never have like seafood and I loved the fried calamari and shrimp!! Definitely would book a different tour with Lorenzo if I had the chance!

Wonderful tour - This tour really was wonderful. We had just arrived into Genoa. This tour gave us a glimpse of the old town and all of the food and wine samples were delicious.

Delicious and Fun! - The food was amazing! We were stuffed at the end. But the added history and walking around the city with someone what happened there or what is important about it or just a funny story really made it worthwhile.

Nice excursion in Genoa! - Lorenzo showed us some beautiful (and old!) areas of Genoa, not far from the port. There were only four of us, so we were able to get to know the others a little bit. Tasty food - especially the fried seafood bites - and a very nice wine bar at the end. Lorenzo took the time to walk us to a taxi stand at the end. Highly recommended!

Terrific tour for any age. - Our guide, Lorenzo was very proud of his city and happy to talk about it. He had facts and stories that you wouldn’t find in a guide book. Then, there was the focaccia, and the cone of seafood ( wonderful.)! At the end of the tour, there was wonderful wine, and the best gelato I have ever had!

Lorenzo was our tour... - Lorenzo was our tour guide and he took us to some of the best places in Genova that we wouldn't have known otherwise. They were so good in fact that we kept on going back to the places that he took us to. I highly recommend doing this tour to get to know the city from a local.

History tour with food and wine added - Lorenzo did a wonderful job Good information and answered all our questions. The choice of food tasting he chose for us was also very good especially the seafood and of course the wine on a very chilly day in Genova

Food was exceptional - Lorenzo was a great guide. The food was exceptional and enough for double our number. So glad I didn’t plug into the cruise line tours for 4x the cost. I’d do this tour again.

Local flavor - Lorenzo was a local and very knowledgeable with all of the back alleys and secret gems. The food was excellent and was a good spectrum of the local cuisine. The wine tasting was nice, but actually only two glasses (one red, one white) at the very end of the tour. All in all though it was a very nice tour.
