Itinerary
Pass by: We start outside the magnificent Duomo, Milan’s most iconic cathedral. Your guide will introduce the history of this Gothic masterpiece and explain why the golden Madonnina is so dear to locals. A quick sweet or savory bite nearby sets the tone for our food journey.
Led by a passionate local guide, you’ll visit four carefully selected food spots to enjoy some of Italy’s most beloved bites. Along the way, you’ll taste a freshly made panzerotto, one of Milan’s favorite street snacks
Next, we walk to the mighty Sforza Castle, once home to dukes and artists like Leonardo da Vinci. While we explore its courtyard and hear its fascinating story, we’ll enjoy a flavorful street-style pizza.
Our final stop is the enchanting Brera District, full of narrow streets, cozy cafés, and creative energy. Your guide will share stories about the area’s artistic heritage and the nearby Pinacoteca di Brera, Milan’s top art gallery (external visit). Here, we’ll finish with a couple more tastings—like fresh ham followed by a creamy gelato or an espresso.

Traveler reviews
Our “guide” seem to have...
Our “guide” seem to have little interest in making any real effort and showed up 15 min late, so he rushed us through. I will say the the food we had was great.
Not so great
I feel like you’re running a tour and you asked me to be there 20 minutes early than I should be there 20 minutes early and he was not. He was late. Got there at like 535 so we’re looking around the king that we were not the right place, which made us very uncomfortable. The first two staff were lame. I understand everybody’s different days when it was just a piece chef that was on the corner and it wasn’t very good. I feel the third staff was very good but she’s been the first step. It was a charcuterie board with wine, which was nice but he wasn’t very engaging and I just thought it was just OK.
A plus tour guide
Francesco not only took us to great places with delicious food he send us extra lists of don’t miss experiences
Fantastic tour
We luckied out and were the only people in the group so got to hear more of the history of Milan, ask lots of questions and get some great recommendations for restaurants. The food was plentiful with the added bonus that unlike other food tours we have been on at each stop we could choose our own food options. Make sure to try this tour out and thanks again to Francisco for being a great tour guide
