Discover The Culinary Heritage And Historic Landmarks Of Beautiful Verona On A Guided Walking Tour


Embark on a sensory journey through the heart of Verona, where history and gastronomy intertwine seamlessly. This guided tour invites you to explore the city's rich traditions, starting with a visit to a local olive oil mill. Here, you will sample three distinct varieties of olive oil, learning how these flavors define the region's culinary identity while enjoying fresh bruschetta that highlights the simplicity of authentic Italian ingredients and local agricultural practices.


As you traverse the historic Corso Porta Nuova, the narrative of the city unfolds through its architecture. You will observe the imposing medieval walls alongside buildings from the Fascist era, providing a stark contrast that illustrates Italy's complex political past. Your guide will point out significant museums housing ancient Roman busts, offering valuable context for those interested in delving deeper into the archaeological treasures that remain scattered throughout this vibrant and culturally significant northern Italian city.


The journey continues with a visit to a historic chocolate shop, established in 1970, which honors the legacy of chocolatiers who once served the Royal Court of Savoy. You will taste three iconic chocolates while gaining insight into the technical differences between mass-produced and artisan cocoa processing methods. This stop serves as a sweet bridge between the city's royal history and its modern dedication to maintaining high-quality food production standards for residents and visitors alike.


Conclude your experience by wandering through the UNESCO-listed historic center, where every corner reveals a new story about Verona's enduring culture. You will admire the architectural grandeur of the medieval Castelvecchio castle and the ancient Roman Triumphal Arch of the Gavi. These landmarks stand as silent witnesses to centuries of change, providing a perfect backdrop for your final reflections on the city's unique blend of artistic beauty, historical depth, and exceptional culinary traditions.

We had an amazing experience with Mariangela. Very professional, friendly, knowledgable and hospitable. Picked us from the hotel and accompanied us to the three wineries in Valpolicella that they had booked. The choice of wineries was exceptional - we would have not discovered or booked any of these on our own. High quality, family run, small production wineries - at two of the three wineries we had the owners giving us the tour and tasting. Would recommend Valpolicella Tasting very strongly.

Mariangela made our day magical. We loved our wine tour with a light lunch. Icing on the cake was the cooking class though. We will never forget it!

Wow, what a gem of a place or should I correctly say Palace, just north of Verona in the village of Bure just a short bus ride from central Verona. We travelled to the vineyard to sample some of their wines and tour the estate. What we actually experienced was a first rate tour of the estate, meeting the owners and hearing their story and their connection to the area, plus a tour of their beautifully restored home that was once an actual Palace. The history and the amazing frescoes of this building make it worth the visit alone. But then we were wowed by their amazing wines, olive oil and charcuterie board- what a great day! Needless to say we left with several bottles to enjoy back at our accommodation ( it would have been more but we had carry on luggage so couldn’t take any home). They do provide a service to transport bottles to your home address. We will return, especially as they also run an agriturismo. Thank you again for a great experience and a big thanks to Valentina for looking after us so well.
