Superb gourmet getaway - We loved this gourmet getaway through the streets of La Spezia. Beatrice speaks very good French but also other languages, she is super nice and patient. We strongly advise to make this getaway with her.

A+. Good tour highly recommended - Wow! Chiara was an absolute pleasure! She showed us multiple wonderful places to eat and shared the meaning behind each of our meals. In addition to the planned kart of our your, she brought us on a guided walk through the open air fish and veggie markets. She went out of her way to make sure we had information to make the rest of our stay more pleasurable. She even gave additional recommendations for local foods and where to go for the best experience. Grazie mille Chiar!

Nice little food tour option. - Wonderful time. It was a bank holiday so several of the normal stops were closed but our lovely guide was able to substitute equally tasty locations.

Would Not Recommend this Food Tour - Not worth the money. The guide was very nice, but the food choices were not good. The first stop was at a focaccia restaurant. They had some lovely looking breads on display, but they were not an option. We just got focaccia with olive oil. No seasoning or toppings. Next stop was for socca (a chick pea crepe), and a cheese bread. Again just oily bread , no flavor. Third stop was for pesto pasta. No option given. Everyone got the same pesto pasta. Nothing special about it and not unique to the area. Pesto pasta can be had anywhere. Next stop was at a seafood restaurant where we had a variety of deep fried seafood and marinaded sardines. Last stop was at an ice cream shop where we had a choice of flavors. The ice cream was good. I paid 85 euros for this booked directly through the company.

food tour disappointment - The young lady took us on thet our was lovely and also had some interesting stories. We were disappointed in what we got for $90 Euros. Two stops for focaccia, a pesto pasta and fried fish at a local fast food plus gelato does not add to that amount. I would not recommend the tour.
