About this tour

A perfect blend of culinary delights and cultural treasures explained by our guides. Stop by local food places to taste e walk to sightseeing Verona

Explore the flavors and history of Verona on this guided tour in English or Italian. Begin your journey at a local olive oil mill shop, where you’ll sample three varieties of olive oil—classic, spicy, and truffle—perfect additions to any Italian dish. Enjoy a delicious bruschetta while learning about the olive-growing traditions in the Verona and Lake Garda area.

Next, stroll along the historic Corso Porta Nuova, admiring its medieval walls and Fascist-era buildings that serve as a reminder of Italy’s complex past. Our guide will highlight museums featuring Roman busts, offering you insights for further exploration.

The tour continues with a visit to a chocolate shop established in 1970. Discover the rich history of Italian chocolatiers who originally catered to the Royal Court of Savoy. Sample three iconic Italian chocolates and learn about the different methods used by mass and artisan producers to process cocoa beans.

As we meander through Verona’s UNESCO-listed historic center, our guides will share fascinating stories about the city’s culture and traditions. You’ll see the impressive Castelvecchio, a medieval castle, the Roman Triumphal Arch of the Gavi family, and elegant 18th-century palaces.

In the next tasting, we will explore the role of street food and its combination with pizza. Pizza has various local adaptations from its Neapolitan origins, including a version introduced to Verona by the Boscaini family after visiting southern Italy. This adaptation features a soft dough made with milk and an incredible tomato sauce seasoned with classic Italian spices. The guide will provide culinary insights into this iconic Italian dish.

Our final stop takes us to Flego Historical Patisserie, where you’ll taste the Risino, a delightful finger cake made with custard and rice, showcasing Verona’s famous rice production, ideal for both risottos and desserts.

Come hungry, curious, and ready to savor the unique tastes of Verona!
