He walked us through the history of each dish & the local areas we visited. I learned so much! We feel so fortunate to have stumbled upon his tour. Highly recommend!!!

Excellent food tour! If you’re considering this authentic, informative and HEALTHIER food tour, book it now! Tried Neapolitan sausage, sautéed veg, margarita and marinara pizza, tarralli, traditional ragu, real Buffalo mozzarella, and pastry. Great tour from a very knowledgeable and experienced guide. Learned so much about Napoli and traditional food. Nothin cheap and deep fried on this tour. Davide was the best! Highly recommend!

Naples was very crowded due to the Christmas holiday. Davide did a wonderful job of navigating the crowds and showing us an exceptional side of the City. He was engaging, and lively and easy to understand.

Davide is prompt, professional, fun and deeply knowledgeable. He cares about the food and its origins, which shows in the highly thoughtful tour he creates. We highly recommend.
