Amazing food tour in Milan! - Food tour centered on the Navigli canal area. Our guide, Giuseppe, took us to the best restaurants for Milanese food. We experienced pizza, charcuterie, arancini, risotto and tiramisu at the best of the best. The company and social vibe were excellent. Giuseppe, who also constructed the tour, is not only knowledgeable in food but also about Milan and the different areas of Italy itself. He is a wonderful host. Wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!

Delicious 😋 😋 😋 - Had a great eating tour of the zNavigli area of Milan which I love. Thr tour guide Alexzndra was very informative about the history of the region and the food of the area. The restaurants could have been closer together esp the dessert restaurant which we didn't go to because of the length of yhe walk the heat and we were very full. The last restaurant should be very close. We ate and drank didn't want to walk tvst far for tiramuse. Loved tbe food and yhe tour guide Alexandra.

“Chin chin” - I highly recommend this walking tour. Giuseppe and Christa were very knowledgeable and engaging. We had a group of 7 from all parts of the world who got along well. Food portions at each stop were very generous and this also included wine and beer. Navigli is where the locals go and is an area well worth visiting

The best food tour - We had the best time in on this tour - such a fun small group (4 people) so much different food and lovely wine and even a craft beer. Whilst the food and venues were amazing, learning the history and the back story to the food and restaurants was also so great, The Navigli area is where it is all happening - and I think an area that a lot of tourists probably miss if they are short on time . This tour is definately my number one recommendation when visiting Milan .
