Great food and fun guide! - This was a fantastic tour and Valentina was an amazing guide! The food was great and we had a lot of fun learning more about Genoa in between stops. It was cool to get food from some well known places as well as small, easy to miss restaurants that we never would have ventured into on our own. I would definitely recommend if you're interested in the Genoa food scene.

Great food tour in Genoa! - My husband and I had a great time with Valentina! Our group tour turned into a private tour. We sampled a wide variety of foods and visited many important sites during our walking tour. Go hungry! All the food was great and we ate it all.

Wonderful tour with amazing food. Highlight of the trip. - We had a great time during the tour. Our guide, Marina, was lovely and incredibly knowledgeable of the area and answered all of the many questions we had. The food on the tour was amazing and varied, with lots of nuance in each meal, and it was hard to decide which meal was the best. This tour was definitely the highlight of the trip for us and we will be going again if in the area.

Taste Genoa!! - Beatrice was an absolute delight—bright, vibrant, and incredibly knowledgeable. She brought Genoa's history and culture to life, making the city’s beauty and charm even more captivating. She was especially kind and patient with our son who is studying abroad, engaging him in Italian to encourage his language skills, which added a personal and thoughtful touch to the experience. Her warmth and enthusiasm made the afternoon a true pleasure. If you're visiting Genoa, don't miss the chance to explore it with Beatrice. She’s simply the best!

Great tour, good food - Good food overall and the tour was great. Marina was excellent and responsive to special requests regarding food allergies, preferences and physical limitations of some party members. One minor complaint was that our 4th stop I think was supposed to have pasta (I heard cacio y pepe) but we only ended up with flatbread and toppings. The price seems too high for the food included so 3.5 to 4 stars for that but Marina earned 5 stars especially on our cold rainy day.

The Best Food Tour - The whole food experience in Rome with all it's history was superb. This was probably one of my favorite excursions in my 2 week stay in Italy. The food was great and a lot--make sure you pace yourself because we were very delighted and very full by the end of the evening. Valentina was fabulous!
