Amazing start to our holiday. Christina is a wonderful guide. She is professional and knowledgeable. It’s a good way to have our first lunch in Milan and at the same time learn more about the food culture of the city.

Full description

Milan is a unique place with two souls, a very traditional northern Italian one, and one that is bustling and innovative as you can find only in a few European capitals. Taste food from only passionate and high-quality local producers, some of the best food venues that only locals know, and experience the greatest sample of what Milan has to offer.

Start your tour with a tasting of local Franciacorta sparkling wine in a hidden venue, a gem kept by wine lovers. Your licensed guide, the food ambassador, will introduce you to Milanese food, curiosities, hidden gems, and lifestyle. One of the best-known dishes around is Risotto Alla Milanese, so taste it in one of the best local restaurants, combined with a second pasta dish and an excellent local white wine.

The tour continues with a sample of grass-fed meat and some cheese bites when the local market is open. When not, you will taste some local cold cuts and fresh cheese from a popular restaurant. Finally, your tour will end with a dessert.

Includes

  • 3 glasses of wine
  • Food tastings in four unique venues (milanese meatballs, risotto and pasta, meat and cheese bites, dessert)
  • Professional local guide
  • Hotel pick-up and drop off

Meeting point

Please meet your guide at the Costantino Statue in Colonne di San Lorenzo (in front of Basilica di San Lorenzo). Your guide will be holding a sign with the 'Walking Palates' logo on it.
