What people love about Food & Culinary Tours in Italy
- Discover Matera and Taste of Salento Tour
I travelled with my 24 yo daughter on this tour in late January. We really enjoyed this experience! Plenty of activity and flexibility. It was an opportunity to see in-depth a beautiful and unusual part of Italy, learn about some of the history and culture and experience their way of life. The tour operator was responsive and dependable - tour as described. Our hosts in Salento were wonderful! The Matera extension was well worth including - an incredible place. For us this holiday was a very authentic cultural experience, which was exactly what we were looking for.
- Sicily Food Adventure
Sicily was great, the transportation was very good, fellow passengers were a great bunch who mixed well. Food and wine experiences were good, but for me the highlight of the trip was ancient and modern Sicily. The tour guide was lovely and tried very hard but with limited English understanding, was not able to provide any significant on board commentary or quell the frustrations that accrued as we drove from place to place. Accommodation throughout the tour was average to good and the weather was just perfect.
This was a wonderful tour. Great accommodations! Fabulous wines and tours. We had a wonderful driver, Brando, who was patient and knowledgeable. This is a trip well worth it. Villa Lecchi was elegant and made us feel very special!
