Our guide Guilia was a very pleasant and informative young lady. Apart from an extensive tour of the market with tastings we also got to see Turin Cathederal and a most interesting church off the usaual tourist track, Lunch was of local delecacies at a small workers cfe and whilst authentic was very tasty, Other viits included a historical coffee housewith tasting and speciality chocolate and ice cream makers, All on all this tour is a must if you want to see more of the real Turin rather than just the main tourist sites. Although the tour involves walking it is by no means arduous,ie I am 75 and managed quite well. Recommended.

This was a great tour, tasting...

This was a great tour, tasting cheeses, fruit and meat in the Farmers Market. Our guide gave us lots of information about Turin as we walked through town. Lunch was fantastic! We tasted chocolate, coffee, and ice cream that were all yummy. We were so full at the end of the tour we skipped dinner and had snacks at our hotel, looking out over the city. The only downside, was that this tour said the pick up was at our hotel, but that was not right. We had a little trouble finding the meeting place on our own, as the city map we got at the hotel did not list all the little streets. The 15 minute walk turned into an hour. We had the guide's cell number and were finally able to meet up. She was very accommodating, and helped us get tram tickets to get a ride back to the hotel.

This was an excellent tour, lead by the lovely Monica who was so well informed about not only the city, but the food and wine cultures from Italy. The tour covered so much ground and the food samples were all amazing. But definitely do not eat before the tour.......we were so full afterwards. Would highly recommend this tour and Monica - it was not only a great way to see the city and learn its history but was also a fabulous way to taste the city!

I can highly recommend Turin Food and Wine Tour!!We had all the amazing food and wine we could ever want. Our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable about the cuisine, sites and history of Turin. He took us to a lot of the more local places where we sampled the wine, food and desserts that Turin had to offer while soaking in the atmosphere and getting a history lesson as well. Would highly recommend it for people willing to try a bit more than pizza and pasta in Turin.
