A fantastic morning spent tasting local Cicchetti, pasta, risotto, fish, meat and pastries in 4 different establishments. Washed down with some superb local wines and finished with coffee. I would highly recommend purchasing the drinks card to enjoy the fabulous wine at each stop. Guilia, our guide was incredible. She has an incredible food and wine knowledge. But she also supplemented our fascinating food and drink experience with an incredible passion and knowledge of Verona's history, quirky little known facts and places to visit aswell as recommendations for dining and drinking. All in all an incredible morning. Highly recommend and will use the company again for other food and wine tours in other cities they cover. Thank you Guilia and your team!!
