Local Food and Wine

It's not just a tasting visit

Choosing this tour means discovering the local cuisine, tasting it, learning how it is produced, how it pairs with wine, discovering the quality of the products and their history...

Good food is no less valuable than a work of art: it helps people understand and love each other.

Good food has a long tradition in Verona. The local aristocracy was famous for its splendid hospitality, born with the reconstruction of the city on the ruins of the 1117 earthquake. The success of a banquet was also a matter of honor and noble families sought the services of the best chefs.

The taste and passion for good food and good wine have remained in the character of the Veronese.

The "Markets and local gastronomy" tour is led by expert guides with over 20 years of experience in the sector. They will introduce you to the Italian way of life and tell you about local history and traditions.
