Experience Food Tours in Genoa with Withlocals

"Thomas's tasting tour in Genoa was a delicious and memorable experience. He guided us through the city’s culinary gems with passion and deep local knowledge. We sampled incredible treats—starting with a creamy caffè con panera, followed by multiple varieties of focaccia, each better than the last. The savory torte were a delightful surprise, showcasing local ingredients and traditions. The highlight was a plate of pasta with vibrant, homemade pesto—simple yet unforgettable. We ended with rich, flavorful gelato that perfectly capped off the tour. Thomas created a warm, engaging atmosphere and offered cultural and historical insights alongside every bite. A must-do for food lovers!"

"We had a wonderful tour with Nefset, very knowledgeable on all things Genoa. Food tastings were great and the tour through the city was perfect. She is an excellent guide and we highly recommend her. "

"Nefset orchestrated a beautiful boat journey along the Portofino and Camogli Italian coast for my wife and I. We stopped along the way to enjoy the beach and most importantly the very best of local cuisine. It was a first class experience that exceeded our expectations. Her extra travel assistance and special photographs captured will last us a lifetime. Nefset is the Best! 😁"

"We loved spending the day with Nefset. We enjoyed hidden gems of Genoa, walked gardens and castles, enjoyed espresso, wine, appertivo, focaccia, pesto, gelato, and more. She finished the day taking us to a grocery store to point out some things to take home. Nefset started as our guide, but we parted as friends."

"Nefset was wonderful. She asked what we were looking for in our tour and went beyond to make our day enjoyable. She was a perfect guide pointing out the high points of Genoa as well as the authentic foods. Her choices were excellent. Her pleasant personality and her knowledge of English only enhanced our experience. "

"We spent an evening on the "10 Tastings of Genoa" tour with Thomas. We can't say enough about this great guide. He was able to share his extensive knowledge of the history and culture of Genoa, all while leading us to hidden gem food places to eat delicious typical Genoese delights. Thomas was very friendly and extremely patient with our millions of questions and our slow-ish walking pace. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and had enough leftovers for the next day! You can't go wrong with this tour, and especially Thomas. "

"We had such a great food tour with Thomas!! He provided us with so much history about Genoa and the places and foods he had us savour were fantastic!! He was even nice enough to take us to the best places to purchase olive oil and pesto!! Thomas was great, it was wonderful to have him as our guide 😊"

"We had an amazing tour with Thomas, who is so passionate about his city and eager to share his wealth of knowledge about history, culture, food, and so much more! It truly didn't feel like a tour; more like hanging out with a new friend who knows all the best places to get focaccia and see spectacular views, though Thomas is also professional and responsive to individual needs, such as finding vegetarian options. We can't imagine a better way to start a visit to this wonderful city than a tour with Thomas!"

"My family and I had a wonderful time on our Food Tour with Thomas! Thomas was a wonderful host . He did a fabulous job leading us through the amazing city of Genoa sharing its history and its food with my family. Definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Genoa! "
