Stefania Was such a delightful engaging and enthusiastic guide!! We quickly felt like we were accompanying a friend around their favorite parts of the city. We learned a bit of history, received numerous recommendations on things to experience, and enjoyed a hearty lunch through a variety of tastings. Stefania was comfortable making recommendations and facilitated a tour where we truly were able to try plenty of everything. She encouraged questions, facilitated translation with proprietors, and truly made our trip to Ferrara informative and delicious. Highly, highly, highly recommended. This is one of the best food tours I’ve been on!
