Unforgettable trip to Sicily
5 - Excellent
  • Noemi Karra
“This is our first private tour and I must say it met all our expectations. Our driver/guide Carlo took very good care of us, told us informative and amusing stories along the way and took us to wonderful restaurants. He made sure all our needs our taken cared of. In Sicily especially I think the private tour is a big advantage as there are many places where only small vehicles can go through. We made the right decision in choosing this tour.”
Pleasant experience with a chill guide. So interesting!
5 - Excellent
  • Samanta Fox
“Sicily was an absolutely unknown place for me so I wanted to explore so much. I do not think that I could have found a better tour. Lots of interesting people, places, food, wine and so on and so on. I will always remember day 3 when we visited Etna. It was like observing the real power of nature. Love it! Our hotels were pretty well. They had four or three stars. But I had everything I needed. Our traveling car was also really nice, so I felt safe while moving from one location to another. Highly recommended for all who love to explore this world with comfortable and interesting company.”
Best Vacation Ever, however big price problem
5 - Excellent
  • James B Dohn
“Thoroughly enjoyed the service and facilities at Due Torri, the hiking, the help and the community . We paid Bookmundi more for our self guided tour than the travel expert advertises for this same trip. We would like an explanation or refund if possible.”

Italy Food Tours

Highlights of Italy Food Tours

  • Learn the art of pasta-making from local chefs in Bologna, Italy, and savor the region's unique cuisine.
  • Get up close and personal with the famous Umbrian truffles on a guided truffle-hunting adventure in the woodlands of Umbria. Afterward, enjoy a mouthwatering truffle-infused meal!
  • Visit the birthplace of pizza - Naples, and learn how to make it from scratch. Get expert advice on creating the perfect Neapolitan pizza and sample some of the best pizzas in town.
  • Get an authentic insight into Italian cuisine by visiting the vibrant markets of Florence. Learn about local produce, tastes, and flavors, and discover what makes Tuscan cooking so special.
  • Visit the city of Parma, renowned for its Prosciutto di Parma and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Enjoy a guided Italy food tour of some of the region's best cheeses in one of its renowned cheese factories.
  • Take a fishing trip to the Mediterranean Sea and taste freshly caught seafood straight off the boat in Sicily. You'll be able to try various dishes, including succulent calamari and octopus!

Travel Tips for Food Tours in Italy

  • Avoid restaurants near major tourist attractions and those with massive laminated menu boards, many languages, or food images.
  • It's best to eat at the same time as the locals do since this is when the restaurant is at its liveliest and busiest. Keep in mind that many restaurants shut in the middle of the day.
  • Make reservations for lunch or dinner whenever possible to guarantee availability. Because of the popularity of food tours in Italy, some places have long waiting lists.
  • Don't forget the Sunday lunch! It's a centuries-old tradition in Italy, and most likely, you’ll find yourself surrounded by Italian families.
  • If you love pizza, make sure to try a wood-fired pizza. Often, these pizzas are only made at night and in smaller towns.
  • Try to have some cash on hand - not all restaurants accept card payments, so it's best to be prepared. Tipping isn't expected in Italy, but it must be paid in cash if you wish to leave a small tip.
  • You have to pay for the water in the restaurants and bars - it costs a few euros and can be either frizzante (sparkling) or naturale (still).
  • The best time to visit Italy for a food tour is during spring and autumn when the temperatures are milder.
