This walking food tour was better than expected! Wonder Guide Beatrice, perfect weather, clean town, wider streets, less people, more modern buildings and walk ways, picturesque! We made 4 food stops, breakfast, after breakfast type local food, seafood lunch and Gelato all the top places for each where picked for an authentic tic taste. Afterwards, we stayed right in the heart of the city for more walking and shopping. The town is surrounded by mountains and sea making it a visual treat! Again, our guide Beatrice was excellent and kept things at a very easy pace to make 4 miles of walking feel like nothing! You won’t be disappointed!
