5.00We had Rebecca as a tour leader, she was amazing and we really enjoyed the tour we received! Food was great, but it would be nice if you could maybe have a couple different food items to select from if you wanted some more variation. Would recommend, especially with Rebecca.
Loved the local food scene in La Spezia!

5.00This was an exceptional tour led by Martina. It was a highlight of our whole trip in Italy. The knowledge, passion and information about the region that Martina told us provided a deep insight into the region. This tour is an absolute must if you are staying in La Spezia. Thank you so much
Definitely NOT Cinque Terre

4.00The title of this experience is VERY misleading!!!!! It does NOT take you to CinqueTerre. We were very disappointed when we found out we were staying in La Spezia. Our guide Chiara was amazing and shared some great food places with us. We definitely would give her 5 stars. She did a wonderful job of explaining the food choices in the region and explaining the history behind some of the restaurants. The other two couples did not show up for the tour so we had a private dining experience.
