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.

My wife and I took the “Eating Milan: Navigli Food & Drinks Tour on Sat Oct 6 2024. WOW. We were with a delightful group and we were led by Chiara. Chiara made the tour fun, interactive and made the learning a delight. We have had two foody tours since, one in Venice and Florence. Different companies and both quite good. But Milan wins hands down.

Guiseppe was a great guide around the Navigli district. We had a lovely walk around the area, with history thrown in amongst the fabulous food at each stop. We were able to sample local cheeses and wine, enjoyed beef carpaccio and polenta with gorgonzola - amazing, farinata, risotto a la Milenese - delicious. Then an amazing Tiramisu. I so wish I had more time in Milan to head back to some of the wonderful venues we went to.

One of the best food tours we have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. My wife and I took the “Eating Milan: Navigli Food & Drinks Tour on Sat Oct 6 2024. WOW. We were with a delightful group and we were led by Chiara. Chiara made the tour fun, interactive and made the learning a delight. There were multiple stops at local restaurants and shops. We spent 17 days touring Northern Italy after this tour and still talk about the food on it.

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.
