A unique experience at the Milan Food Tour in the Navigli Taking part in the Milan Food Tour in the Navigli alone was an exceptional gastronomic experience. The tour offered delicious tastings and a variety of authentic flavors. The guide was incredibly friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere that made every participant feel at ease. I highly recommend this food tour to anyone, even those who decide to participate alone.

We had such a great time eating, drinking and learning about the local food and area with Chiara today. We traveled from the hip neighborhood of Navigli to the more historic areas, eating and talking with our small group. What a lovely way to learn about a new city. I highly recommend.

We had an amazing experience on the Eating Europe Food Tour in Milan! Chiara was our guide and she was fantastic. She is so knowledgeable and engaging which made our food journey through the city truly special. Delicious pizza, creamy risotto, local wines and refreshing Aperol spritz.. every stop was awesome.
The walking between restaurants was enjoyable and not too difficult, but do keep in mind that there are steps and consistent walking, so it may not be ideal for those with mobility concerns.
The highlight of the tour was Chiara herself. Chatting with her made the experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a unique and delicious way to explore Milan, I highly recommend this tour!

Giuseppe
Born in Palermo and raised in Lombardia 🇮🇹, I've also lived for 9 years in London 🇬🇧 and 3 years in Granada 🇪🇸
My favorite Milanese food is polenta & gorgonzola, simple yet hearty.
What I love about Milan is the easy access to quick yet incredible food and drinks. Unpretentious, no-frills places where you can have amazing wines and a bite to eat with no need to plan for it.
