We had a great guide who was very knowledgeable on the history of verona. A beautiful town to explore. It was finished with a lovely food platter at the end, and two glasses of the local wines. Would highly recommend.

Tripadvisor pulled a bait and switch. I booked the Verona Local Food Tasting and Walking Tour with Cable Car. I have booked these types of tours directly with businesses throughout Europe and always enjoyed the time spent going to various bars and eating and drinking with a small group of people. Tripadvisor latched me on to a walking tour of Verona, walking for what seemed miles throughout the city. When I asked when we would stop and do the wine/food tasting, the guide said it would be at the end. At the end of the city tour, the people in our group left and I was left with the guide. He directed me to a bar at Piazza Bra where I sat alone with a charcuterie and a glass of wine. Pretty sad, really. I won't be booking these tours thru Tripadvisor anymore.

The tour was great. The guide was very knowledgeable. Some, very interesting facts. We went to corners of Verona I had already visited while wondering around and he provided context and history. Food was also great and the restaurant was in a great spot.

Our guide Francesa was so engaging and informative. Lots of little titbits of information along the way. So much so that when we were 2 hours into the walking tour, we thought we had only covered around half an hour of our experience. At the end of the journey we had the chance to sample some great wine and food. Well worth the booking!

Our guide Mauro was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and he took us to places that steered clear of most of the larger tour groups.

Mauro the guide was such a nice person, informative without going overboard and fun with the facts. When it came to the food and wine, he had good suggestions and was a pleasure to have with us.

JUDY_P

The walking along the quiet streets of Verona, away from the crowds. We misunderstood the description and thought this was a restaurant to restaurant walking tour. It’s a city tour with food at the end. Madeleine is a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable. We didn’t like the crowds at the funicular or Juliet’s house, but the views at the top of funicular were fantastic.

Hope_E

The guide was very kind and knowledgeable about Verona - I would recommend her as a guide. However how this tour is billed is misleading - it is billed as a "food tasting and walking tour" - it is in fact a walking tour with a plate of salumi at the end as an after thought - we all expected to stop and taste things along the way (like the special torta of the area we saw at the bakery), but we did not taste anything for 3 hours and were given a plate of salumi at the end that the tour guide did not stay to share with us. You either need to add more tastings or change the tour name. I have done many "tasting" tours and this was not one.
