Carolina was the best guide ever. The route is fantastic with a great mix of stops and plenty of food. It’s a great experience to do early in your trip as Carolina have is great advice on where to go and what to do. She is extremely knowledgable and friendly and made the whole tour fun and relaxed. We would highly recommend this to anyone that wants to experience food and culture all in one go. Definitely worth the price tag.

A brilliant, lovely, and charming tour of a beautiful and delicious city. Our guide Carolina was a delight to spend the afternoon with, and organized the tour to perfection. You'll leave craving everything you tasted. I only wish I could wrap the whole city up in my suitcase and take it home.

My mom and I had an amazing time on the GOURMET FOOD TOUR for TORINO. Our guide was Fabio and he was great! He even graciously waited for us since our train was delayed to Torino. He happily answered our questions regarding the food, history and culture of Torino. We would GLADLY take a tour with Fabio again. His passion for food and history is astounding!
