Amazing and intimate way to tour Milan!
Shertina_M, October 2026
My husband and I only had a little over 24 hours in Milan after visiting Florence. I hands down recommend this food tour! We both agreed that it was one of the best experiences we've ever had, from the food, wine and lovely host Irena. We were fortunate to have a private tour during the evening and every stop promised something unexpected and delicious. You could truly tell that Irena was passionate about doing these tours, she honestly felt like a familiar friend. Try it, you will not regret it!

Milanese food tasting
Cathryn_S, October 2026
A wonderful tour to 4 places to experience Milanese food as well as hear about the creation of balsamic vinegar.
Our tour guide, Simone is a local and very knowledgable not only about the food, but also the buildings close to the eating places.
This is a walking tour, but it would suit any fitness.
