It was a good mix of cultural food tastings, history and architecture. Our guide was very knowledgeable. Tastings were generous. My favorite stop was learning about basalmic vinegar.

Lovely good…the history bit was flat
Very mixed feelings. The actual tour could be cut to an hour and a half. The guide was informative but the areas we toured, in moments, weren’t that interesting. A gastro tour of the area and the history of the local cuisine, by itself, would have been so much more interesting, pointing out some of the buildings felt a little like a filler….and I love architecture and the history of buildings. The food was nice and I very much appreciated that they catered for me as the only vegetarian. We just felt the general vibe of the tour was flat and hard to understand

Late afternoon walking food tour
Chris our tour guide was wonderful. Very enthusiastic and knowledgable with an obvious passion for her home city. Lots of hidden gems and traditional spots for us to enjoy. Very full and tired - well worth it!

Recommend!
We had a great experience on this street food tour in Milan. Our guide, Luca, was friendly, welcoming, and shared interesting stories throughout the tour, which made it more than just a food experience. We had five different stops and tastings, including balsamic vinegar tasting, charcuterie, a visit to Peck supermarket, fried risotto, baked mozzarella from Luini, and a sweet pastry to finish. The group was small with only 9 people, which made it easy to follow along and ask questions. The tour lasted about 2.5 hours and ended near the Duomo, which was a perfect location to continue exploring the city afterwards. Definitely recommended if you want to discover Milan through its food and local stories.
