This food tour was one of my favorite things we did in Italy! We got to visit fruit, meat, and cheese stands in the local market. It felt like we were getting a really authentic, local experience all while eating delicious and fresh cheeses and meats. Rachel is has a wealth of knowledge on all things cheese and taught us a lot about the origins of everything we ate. 10/10!
We had already done the Prosecco tasting and spritz walk, and I didn't think it could get any better, BUT IT DID! This was my favorite of the three. We loved visiting the markets, and the food samplings were delicious. Thanks for a memorable experience!
Tailored to your likes. Wonderful knowledgeable guide, full of insights into local foods, origins and pairings. Enjoyed samples of the best market stalls. Ended up happily stuffed. Not long distance walking. Educational and fun!
Rachel. The guide, is delightful, very knowledgeable, and will piece together a wonderful market-fresh lunch for you.
This is your chance to have a truly authentic experience with the most accommodating and personable hosts. I bring my tour groups to Rachel & Mario of Venice Day Trips over and over, year after year. We’ve had the best wine tours, tasting from small producers, and learning so much about the wine of Italy — there are so many! We’ve also explored the full array of the Veneto’s aperitivi drinks and the beautiful cicchetti to nibble on. We’ve been introduced to the fabulous markets and tasted exquisite bites from the vendors. We’ve been introduced to the most wonderful bars and restaurants that locals love. Toured the city of Padua including where Galileo taught (yes, that Galileo!), the beautiful chapel filled with Giotto paintings. We’ve had engaging and smart city tours of both Venice and Padua. You cannot go wrong with Venice Day trips.
Rachel our guide was exceptional would recommend this tour to everyone. The walk was very pleasant and the wonderful history to this beautiful city was very interesting.
thanks for your kind words! It was lovely to meet you. I'm happy that you enjoyed this experience in Padova.
