About this tour
Walk through Milan's elegant central neighbourhood stopping at family-run venues for a progressive tasting menu. Over 3.5 hours, you'll sample Franciacorta sparkling wine in a tucked-away enoteca, taste risotto and fresh pasta at a celebrated osteria, explore an unpasteurised cheese monger, and work through five courses matched with regional wines, finishing with dessert. Your guide shares stories about Italian food traditions and local producers as you move between stops.

What to expect
You'll meet your guide in central Milan and begin walking through an affluent residential quarter. At each stop—a wine bar, established restaurant, cheese shop, and final dining venue—you'll taste, ask questions, and hear about producers and dishes before moving on. The pacing is leisurely; this isn't rushed tourism. Wine pours are modest but regular. By the final course, you'll have covered substantial ground on foot and eaten considerably, so bring appetite and comfortable shoes. The group stays small, which means genuine conversation with your guide and other participants.
