      Milan Food Tour
      If you’re a foodie that enjoys mingling with other foodies from around the world, this tour is for you. Our guide Chiara made it an enjoyable experience! Come hungry because you will have a LOT of food, so even though it’s delicious (Risotto Milanese 😋) I suggest that you pace yourself. Chiara also made excellent wine recommendations! We had a group of six - my wife and I from Northern Virginia, two gals from S.Africa, one woman from Atlanta and one from N. Carolina. All well travelled and great conversationalists.

      Great 3 hours on food with Chiara!
      We had a great 3+ hours with Chiara taking us around Milan and sharing history and food for the region. We had 6 stops and they were all delicious. The risotto was the standout! Save room. Chiara is entertaining and helpful for suggestions around town. Couldn’t recommend this more!

      Excellent food and guide
      Chiara was an excellent guide who created a welcoming environment and shared a lot of interesting information not only about the different food we tried, but also the history of the city. All of the restaurants had great food, and overall we felt we had a great variety of options during the tour.

      Featured Milano classic food. Delicious. High value for price.
      Milan "Gourmet Food Tour" lived up to the name.  Francesco, our guide, was excellent, fluent English, pacing the 3.5 mile food walk to the slowest participant.  We started near the Duomo, finishing near the fashion district. Pastries, risotto,  pizza, charcuterie platter of veggies/cheese/ regional cured meats, and then gelato. Abundant Italian  wines (or beer).  Francesco built group harmony, added lots of Milano history and food orientation.  The food selections and venues were good. Francesco was exceptional. We highly recommend,  great value for the price.

      A great journey which included less visited parts of Milan and great food. Risotto Milanese, Pizza romana, Tuscan charcuterie with Chianti. A great lunch time trek - you won’t need dinner.

      Excellent Milan Experience
      This was an amazing experience with Chiara! We had such a great time, and it felt extremely personable. If anything, she made it feel like we were visiting our friend and she was showing us around. The food was delicious, and I’d recommend the wine pairing she suggests. I would highly recommend this when coming to Milan!

      We had a great time with Francesco Very sweet and knowledgeable about culture architecture and food. We were lucky to have a private tour as the other couple no showed. Great pleasure to spend time with this young man. He helped us fall in love with Milan!

      Outstanding food tour in Milan
      Since this tour was in late July in ended up with only two in the group. Hence, we had all the attention of our guide Chiara. We visited 5-6 sites. Among them that were excellent was a pizza place, where there was a wide selection of choices. All that we chose were very good. Another place served excellent risotto. The best I have ever taken. Our penultimate visit was to a small which served a hearty lunch with wine. While the wine was decent the food itself was excellent. In all places we were unable to eat aa the food that was served. Finally, m we ended with gelato, which was a welcome end on a very hot day. Chiara mixed the food tour with a historical tour on the area covered. This was very good. Overall, this was an excellent tour and Chiara was exceptional

    An enjoyable and relaxed tour, with a knowledgeable guide. The atmosphere was friendly and we had plenty of time to get to know the other members of the group. There was not a lot of walking, all the venues were close together. We were expecting more drinks, we thought there would be a drink at each stop but that wasn’t the case. As most people were full already at the sandwich stop (and it wasn’t a place with any kind of atmosphere) I would recommend switching that stop for a bar instead, I think that would be better value for money.

    Julia was a lovely tour guide; very knowledgeable about cooking and local customs and the city. She took us to very interesting and not typical restaurants/bars and had the backstory on each. Her English was great! We enjoyed the tour and would always recommend a food tour when in a new city to get a better local perspective.

    We have been on 3 other food tours. I had HIGH expectations for one in Milan. Sadly I was disappointed. Our tour guide was Francesca. She was a lovely lady that I enjoyed spending time with. But she was not a food tour guide. I hate to leave a bad review but I paid almost $200 for 3 glasses of wine for both my husband and I, a small bowl of olives, a small bowl of popcorn, a plate of mixed cheese and cold cuts at TWO different stops, 1/2 a sandwich and a small cup of gelato. I understand it was an apertivo tour - but 2 different stops gave us salami, mortadella, ham and cheese! Franncesca have us information if we asked her but we didn’t learn anything about Milan, why we were stopping at the restaurants we were, or what was special about them. At the end of the tour we had to walk quickly because she thought they would close and then after we were served our gelato she left . We sat there for another 15 minutes eating our gelato and they were still serving customers as we left . At each place she said they are good quality. Sorry this is what we scheduled in Milan.

    Dear customer, we are sorry that you wrote this negative review, especially considering that during the tour you repeatedly expressed your appreciation of the dishes you tasted, the drinks you enjoyed and the places you visited in front of other customers. If you didn't like something, you could have said so during the tour and we would have certainly tried to offer you something different immediately. However, the cured meats and cheeses you sampled were also all different in appearance and taste and came from different parts of Italy, as explained by Francesca and the waiters. As for the wines, the tour included two different Italian wines and a cocktail (at a famous cocktail bar). We are sorry that you wanted to choose wine in all the venues, as opposed to the other customers who chose different drinks, as suggested by the food guide. However, we take note of your review and will try to further improve all aspects of the tour.

    We had a fantastic tour with Eleonora, and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a way to explore Navigli with some delicious food and drinks with a small fun group. Eleonora is an excellent tour guide, so engaging and personable. The food and wine options were great (we were v full by the end) and we also liked one of the bars so much we went back after the tour. The organisation and messages from the tour company before the trip were helpful too. Thanks!

    This was a fun and entertaining tour.. Our guide, whose name I don't recall, even tracked us down when we couldn't find the starting point. It was a small group of eight and everyone got along well it was made to feel included. Food and drinks were varied and it was fun walking around the Canal area.

    Sorry to leave a not so good rating. While I had not been to many food tours except for one in Rome many years back, this one was really a far cry from that. The cocktail, wine and cheese were great. Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy the jacked potatoes, the Milanese street food (some pocket bread with stuffed dishes) and gelato. The biggest letdown was the gelato at the end of the trip. They were overly sweet and the flavours were really mediocre.
    I was really expecting something more interesting than this. The price I paid for 3 could have brought us to somewhere finer.

    Thank you for participating and for the review. We are very sorry that the experience did not live up to your expectations, especially since being a food tour, food is an essential part of the experience. Tastes are personal, so you may or may not like a dish and that is normal. However, this is the first time that we have had as many as three dishes (jacked potatoes, street food, and ice cream) not being liked. We thank you for the feedback and hope to see you again soon!

    Francesco was great! There was a lot of food, drinks and conversation throughout the evening! Our group was 4 couples from various parts of the world and everyone had a great time getting to know each other; it was a low key, fun way to learn about the local food and get to enjoy the company of new people. We would definitely recommend this tour at the beginning of your trip so you can eat at many of the recommended places while you’re there!

    Our tour guide was Simone and he was amazing! So knowledgeable and friendly. We got lucky and our tour was so intimate and nice. I’d definitely recommend going on this tour if you want to try different and delicious foods. Every spot was something we haven’t tried before and places and areas we would never find out about otherwise.

    Meeting spot was easy to find and the short walk from place to place was something I really enjoyed.

    We were very disappointed with the tour. We were expecting to learn about Navigli and experience Italian food and drinks. Instead, we were offered Mexican drinks and a filled potato and very little Italian cuisine. The guide gave very little information about Navigli. Definitely not worth the time or cost.

    Good morning, we are sorry the tour was not to your liking. The tour is about experiencing the Milanese aperitif as experienced by the Milanese, in special and popular venues. Stuffed potatoes are a highly regarded dish in Milan and strongly Italianised, because they are served with only high quality Italian ingredients from different Italian regions (e.g. burrata from Puglia, pistachio from Bronte, culatello and mortadella from Bologna, etc.). This is the huge difference with jacked potatoes eaten abroad. The bar, on the other hand, where you had drinks that you said were Mexican, offers different choices of travel-related drinks with references to Italy every 6 months (you can still choose more classic drinks on the menu)
