Our favorite food tour - must book! - We had an incredible evening with the Gourmet Girls and a great group of fellow travelers. One of our best nights in Sorrento. The food, wine and restaurants we attended were amazing - we didn’t feel rushed jumping from one spot to another - which let us really enjoy the experience and get to know others in the group, which was so much fun. The food was delicious. Vanessa and Lee are super passionate, knowledgeable, fun and kind guides - they have a very special tour - you don’t want to miss it. 5+ stars.

Great evening - This was a great evening, and allowed us to try different foods / wines that we wouldn’t have otherwise tried. Vanessa and Lee were very friendly and knowledgable. I would highly recommend this tour. You will not leave hungry!! We sampled around 9 dishes, six wines and a cocktail to end the evening! We went to four different restaurants / bars on the tour.

Solid food tour! - I loved the concept of this tour. There was a few stops with a lot of time at each stop instead of a jumping around. The food was wonderful and we met some great people, excellent experience. Their choice of restaurants was superb.

Highly recommended - Fabulous experience. This was labeled as a progressive dinner rather than a food tour. It was perfect. We weren’t looking for a history lesson or tour of the city. We wanted to experience excellent local food and learn about the food culture in this region. That’s exactly what we got. So much fun and such excellent food and wine!

Food lovers dream! - We booked this tour for a fun, unique birthday celebration having never done anything like this before. Best dinner ever! Lee and Vanessa were incredible, providing so much information about the food, the culture and their experiences. You could really tell they put in a lot of thought and care when they chose the restaurants. Every bite was delicious, the wine was perfectly paired and we spent the whole night laughing and chatting. The most charismatic hosts, we would recommend them to everyone, Gourmet Girls is a must-do when in Sorrento! From the Canadian girls, thank you for this experience!

An unforgettable evening! - I can not recommend this experience enough. Every part was friendly and professional. Lee was an amazing host and the restaurants were outstanding. We went back to visit one of the restaurants on our own and got such a warm welcome when we told them we were returning after visiting with the gourmet girls. We had never done anything like this before and were a little worried about it but we were so glad we booked it. Thank you gourmet girls, an unforgettable evening!
