This was our first food tour, and We loved every minute of it. We highly recommend it to everyone, who is interested in authentic local food. The basil-lemon gelato was surprising, but very good.

Make sure you take the tour with Larissa. We had a small group (5 altogether) and not knowing what exactly to expect, discovered that it takes a whole lot of heart and soul to create an inviting and meaningful food tour experience. Larissa provided more than just a guided tour, but also in-depth knowledge and demonstrable established relationships with purveyors of sustenance. It’s as if they were all family inviting us strangers into their homes. So glad I booked this tour!

Our tour guide was Adib, who shared a lot of interesting information about the area in which we did the food tour as well as great trivia and tips about the food itself. The tour was good value as there was plenty of food and drinks over the three hour tour. This was also a great opportunity to meet and talk with others in the tour group from different countries while sharing great food.
