Lovely morning in Como - We spent a great morning in Como exploring the market, the town and... its local flavours! First, we had a good espresso with a pastry. Then we visited the market with our guide who told us the stories of the local producers and described the products available. We also had a tasting of different local cheese at a market stall and it was just awesome. I don't think I would have ever discovered it by myself. Then we continued to a small restaurant where we had a glass of excellent wine paired to some cold cuts. And then the happy ending... a good gelato!

Excellent tour! - We spent a great time together, tasting some local food with a very good company. Daniele is an excellent guide and a good storyteller with a lot of knowledge about the town and the food. All the hosts we met along the way were welcoming and expert about food and wine. We felt like locals. Thank you guys!

A truly Italian experience - A great tour to learn about the local food and the local producers. The market is frequented by locals who shop for fresh food so it is a lively and authentic place. The food we tasted in the second part of the tour was simply great. And the company, too.

Real taste of Italy - We enjoyed the entire journey from the first taste of coffee to the market and lastly the wine with the meats and cheeses. Included of course was the enjoyable conversation. Although it was all wonderful we enjoyed the end relacing with the wine and intercange of conversation the best.

Tasty food and good stories - Don't judge a book by its cover… This market isn't a fancy place but it is really authentic. Thanks to Daniele we felt like real locals, he introduced us to the producers who told us their stories and offered some delicacies. Everything was tasty and fresh, and I bought some souvenirs for friends and family, so appreciated!!
