Roberta is the best ! - There is no words to describe how nice and adorable Roberta is !!! We enjoyed the Food Tour for my Bachelorette Party, and it was amazing. We liked everything about it : the food of course, the wine also, and all the little stories about the city that Roberta told us while she guided us through San Remo. Roberta was the highlight of the tour, and she made the week-end very special to us, with her presents, her surprises, and her good advices. I will definitely come back to do another tour with dear Roberta. Thanks for everything !

5 étoiles ne suffisent pas ! - Roberta a été une guide parfaite ! 5 étoiles ne sont même pas suffisantes pour la remercier pour ce fabuleux food tour. Nous avons pu visiter le vieux san Remo, quartier de la pina, habituellement et étonnamment boudé par les touristes. Un magnifique endroit, le tout en dégustant de fabuleuses spécialités ! Quelle chance nous avons eu de tomber sur une personne si gentille et prévenante ! Merci encore c’était parfait ! Et bienvenue dans la team bride ! Viva la sposa !

The best tour in San Remo - We had an amazing experience visiting and eating our way around San Remo ! Roberta is lovely, welcoming and generous, she led us through San Remo’s old town and shared with us the town’s history, stories and her gems of adresses. We discovered so many delicious specialties that we couldn’t have found on our own ! The tour is really worth it and I would recommend it to everyone coming to San Remo, honestly if you had to do only one thing on your trip there, it would be that ! Five stars are really not enough ! Thank you so much for your kindness Roberta ! We hope to see you again soon !

June is the month devoted to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and not the deadly sin of pride. - The walk up into the Medieval town was so very interesting. Places of business were pointed out that had such a history behind them. Our guide was great! I am deleting my Viator app, as I notice, the Viator logo is rainbow now that it is the month of June. Viator should know June is the month devoted to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and not the deadly sin of pride.

Don’t miss this tour! - Roberta led us on a fabulous walking tour of local and medieval sections of Sanremo, explaining the history of the city, and pointing out her favorite local shops and restaurants. These places are the real deal. We had a great gelato and focaccia/local wine tasting along the way. We’ve gone back to several of the places she showed us for great lunches and to buy local Sanremo/Ligurian EVOO, wine, Parmesan reggiano, fresh fruits and veggies, pasta, etc. We’re staying in an apartment so we’ll get to enjoy all of these while we’re here. Roberta is highly qualified and so knowledgeable about the city she loves.
