Great tour! - Nate did such a good job leading our tour. He effortlessly combined describing the history of the city while explaining its great food traditions, giving our group sizable portions of local dishes to illustrate his points. He also made us laugh as he added bits of local culture into the conversation. Not only did we stop at 4 different places for food, we stopped at a silk shop to observe the looms and then several other places of interest along the way. The atmosphere of the tour was lighthearted and fun and surprisingly educational.

Wonderful food tour with Jeremy! - When u travel, if you enjoy learning about the food in the area, u will love this tour! The company is very organized! We went on the 3 hour private tour and visited 4 food places. We tried local canelles specialty, wine, ice cream and praline pastry. All items were served quickly and tasted great! We learned a lot at each location. We had a group of 8 adults and we all enjoyed the tour! Highly recommend This tour!

A waste of time and money - Save your money. Four tasting breaks included cold meat and bread with half a glass of red wine, a mouthful of 4 different cheeses on a toothpick with half a glass of white wine, a slice of praline with a coffee or cold drink, finishing with two teaspoons of gelato. Plus a visit to a silk shop which is not food. The tour was accompanied by continuous background of superfluous information. Example saying bread shouldn’t be cut until it’s presented at the table yet our bread was cut and on the table waiting for us when we arrived. All this for the grand total 70 Euros.
