Francesco was fabulous! His knowledge and caring was very important to us. I would recommend skipping one food place because it was too much food in short time.
Meeting point was central. I understand stopping points can change depending on weather, number of participants and other factors. Our tour included tastings at Alice Pizza, Ciro Amodio, La Prosciutteria in Brera and a gelato at Vero down the street from the prosciutto place. Francesco was a wonderful guide, very personable and friendly. We got along well and we asked for food suggestions, which he gladly shared, and talked about life in Milano as we strolled the streets. Portions and quality at each place were good and we spent enough time at each location without feeling rushed. We would recommend the tour itself and Francesco!
Amazing food, great tour guide, a lot of good information shared. Michela was the best!! A lot of walking in between food gave time for food to settle, just in time for next treat
I showed up at the wrong meetup point and missed the experience. The tour operator was nice enough to give me a small refund for no show. I also appreciate their prompt communication
Our “guide” seem to have little interest in making any real effort and showed up 15 min late, so he rushed us through. I will say the the food we had was great.
I feel like you’re running a tour and you asked me to be there 20 minutes early than I should be there 20 minutes early and he was not. He was late. Got there at like 535 so we’re looking around the king that we were not the right place, which made us very uncomfortable. The first two staff were lame. I understand everybody’s different days when it was just a piece chef that was on the corner and it wasn’t very good. I feel the third staff was very good but she’s been the first step. It was a charcuterie board with wine, which was nice but he wasn’t very engaging and I just thought it was just OK.
Francesco not only took us to great places with delicious food he send us extra lists of don’t miss experiences
We luckied out and were the only people in the group so got to hear more of the history of Milan, ask lots of questions and get some great recommendations for restaurants. The food was plentiful with the added bonus that unlike other food tours we have been on at each stop we could choose our own food options. Make sure to try this tour out and thanks again to Francisco for being a great tour guide
Excellent & yummy food. Francesco is very knowledgeable and accommodating Cxxxcxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Had a great tour with Francesco. Very knowledgeable about the history of the city and all 4 locations he brought us to were excellent. He even provided restaurant recommendations for us afterwards. This tour is a great way to see the city with some food along the way. Grazie Francesco!
