Enjoy a private food tour with your fun and knowledgeable host Martina. Your first food stop will an Italian bakery where you will taste savory or sweet baked goods. Next, explore the Sant’Ambrogio market. Here you will not only discover a variety of typical Italian produce but also get an in-depth understanding of the way locals buy, eat and cook food. You will make 5 stops and try 5-6 different types of food. Your food tastings will be accompanied by up to 2 glasses of wine.
The food market in Sant’Ambrogio is open everyday from Monday to Saturday from early morning until 2pm. It is closed in the evenings and on Sundays. For travelers that book this food tour in the afternoons or on Sundays, Martina will have you try the same food and drinks but at different locations (not at the market). You might even get to try coccolo, small balls of dough fried in olive oil and stuffed with prosciutto ham and a creamy fresh cheese called stracchino.
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. Service animals allowed. Public transportation options are available nearby. Suitable for all physical fitness levels
