A real recommendation - It was a wonderful evening with Thora. She had a lot to say about Aosta and of course about the local specialities. All the dishes on offer were of high quality and extremely tasty. She also took intolerances into consideration. This was a real enrichment for our holiday in the Aosta Valley. Thank you very much!

An excellent way to explore Aosta - We had a fab food tour with Thora in Aosta.  Our favourite part was the underground cheese experience, which was really special.  Thora was extremely knowledgeable and we learned lots about the history and culture of the area. It made us appreciate the valley and its wonders even more. We would highly recommend this tour!

Do Eat Better with Thora - We had the best day with our guide Thora. She was very knowledgeable about the local Acosta area and the history. Each restaurant she selected had its own charm, cheeses, breads, wines, polenta and risotto. Sooo delicious. I would highly recommend her if you want your time on the tour to be wonderful. She even gave us tips for other things to see while we were there and the next day sent me suggestions for things to do while in Rome.

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.

Beautiful tourist scam - The tour starts with a charcuterie board - cheese for 2 people with a glass of wine; quality products but nothing exceptional; classic and not especially hearty. We continue with a tasting of 4 cheeses in a beautiful cellar; the products are excellent; I had taken the drinks option for 20€; I will have to settle for a glass of water... We then stop in a pastry shop, the aim being obviously to make us buy; we resist; we are then handed two tiny bags of crunchy cakes (about 3€ each, again). Then comes a 4th place (a very medium ranked restaurant in Aosta) where we are served the traditional galet of Aosta with a (only) glass of very basic wine. The welcome is pretty cold. And now a little dolce? Well, no, it's over! All this lasted barely 2 hours; not a word about the history of the city (Roman gate and theater, cathedral), about the wines of the region... I conclude that the drinks option is limited to a glass of wine. At that price, we could at least have had Barolo. Know that for 80€ in Aosta, you have an exceptional menu discovery in a star; it is up to you to choose. Anyway, thieves! And if participants enjoy getting plucked, well take it from them.
