Top 13 Food Tours in Milan

1.Milan’s Authentic Street Food tour: A Gourmet Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 717 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $116Our pick

Spend about three hours with a local guide such as Marco, Francesco, Simon, or Irene, visiting four or five food shops around Milan. Expect pizza, cured meats, cheese, regional snacks, wine, pastries, gelato, neighborhood history, and pickup on foot or by public transport.

“We went on the food tour having not been to Milan before. Our guide took us to five stops: a balsamic vinegar shop, a place for crecia, a pizza place, takeway pastries and gelato. All the food stops were very nice, but we had been to the balsamic vinegar shop and they do the tasting for any visitor. We would have liked more information about the food, and the areas we were visiting. The walk between some stops felt very long when we were not being told about the area or food as we travelled. Considering the cost, I don't think the tour was particularly good value.”
