Verona food and historical tour

Just OK for a light bite

Carol_B, Jul 2025
This was not as good as other food walks I've taken in other cities, but it was fun. Our first stop, an olive oil tasting on bruschetta, was not informative at all, but the oils were interesting and different. The candy stop was an intense rapid overload of sugar with hardly any information. Our cake stop wasn't a stop, it was a pick-up and eat in the street, again, with no information. Our final stop we actually learned a bit about the two wines, but nothing more about the meats and cheeses than their straightforward descriptions. As we walked through Verona our guide pointed out a few historical points of interest. While we had a very good time with our guide and the other guests, the food choices didn't thrill us.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Hello, thank you for your review, we are glad you enjoyed the tour and it was fun. Unfortunately, the guide that was there was substituting our main guide who had an accident, so that is why the informative part was lacking. But now our main guide is back! And thank you for your feedbacks about the food too. Anyway, we're waiting for you on our other tours!

Delicious Verona

Elpis_V, Jul 2025
The tour was tasty and informative. Our guide Leonardo was passionate about the food we tried and very knowledgeable about the wine too. We were not rushed and enjoyed the experience

Response from Host, Sep 2025

We’re delighted you enjoyed the tour and tastings with Leonardo, and that his passion and knowledge made the experience both enjoyable and informative. It’s wonderful to know you felt unhurried and could truly savor the moment — we’d be happy to welcome you again in Verona for a winery tour next time.

Carlo was a wonderful...

Lisa_S, Jul 2025
Carlo was a wonderful guide and so knowledgeable about the history and culture of Verona and it's good. We learnt so much and enjoyed being introduced to stores and foods we otherwise would not have tried without his guidance. Unfortunately they were not able to cater well for my friend who has coeliac when it came to food, which was absolutely not the fault of the host who tried his best to adjust the experience. Would recommend for anyone interested in Verona culture, food, wine and history but would caution for those who are gluten intolerant or allergic/coeliac.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear Carlo made the experience so enjoyable and that his knowledge of Verona’s history, culture, and food helped you discover new places and flavors. We’re truly sorry your friend with coeliac disease could not be fully accommodated, though we appreciate your kind words about the efforts made to adapt. Your feedback is very valuable, and we’ll continue working on ways to better meet dietary needs. We’re glad you would recommend the tour and hope to welcome you back for an even smoother experience in the future.

Worth the money

Byron_A, Nov 2023
Our tour guide was Christina. She was great! We learned so much about the culture as well as some history. We tasted some meats, cheeses, breads, 5 types of olive oils, chocolates, a cake specific for Verona and two wines. We were very pleased. Add this to your list if you are visiting Verona.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Hi Byron, I always say to travellers to be prepared to eat ! Glad you did it !

Extended tour

Joseph_S, Oct 2023
Emilie was a great host and seemed to add a lot of her own personality to the tour. Once the tour was over she continued to take us to a bridge that connected 2 different sides of Verona where she grew up. She offered to take us to another wine shop and have some drinks after. She really made us feel like we became friends during the tour.

Great tour with the best...

Eduardo_M, Oct 2023
Great tour with the best guide possible. Miriam was very informative and fun. The best way to discover Verona

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thanks Eduardo. We feel that there's more than Parmisan and Parma Ham in Italy to try. That's why we show customers the local cheese and ham !

I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Verona in

anne_H, Aug 2023

Excellent food tour

Enrico_P, May 2023
This was an excellent food tour with a great guide that shared many tips on Italian cusine and winemaking. He tells a very compelling story in a relaxed and fun way. The group was limited to 4 people. The food quality was superior. We also tried a superb robust red wine.

Response from Host, May 2023

Our mission is to share the Italian food and wine culture and the great products we have in Verona

timo

MariadelMar_d, Oct 2024
Un timo. Contraté esta experiencia y la guía llegó 20 minutos tarde, sin entender nuestro idioma (lo contraté en español) y tal como llegó se fue. He pedido una solución y sigo esperando que me devuelvan el importe

Response from Host, Oct 2024

We provided 100% refund and delete the spanish options. the guide was there on time though and this is your second bad review :) Please let us know if you come back and we are happy to find a spanish guide beforehand.
