Taste Lake Garda wines and olive oil in Lazise on a small-group, 2-hour vineyard tasting with snacks, 6+ pours, and local hosts.
“Had a great time here this beautiful vineyard and would highly recommend. The only caution would be that this is described as a tour, and it’s really just a wine tasting in the vineyard. We were able to ask about the wine making process and could wander around the vineyard, but there wasn’t a tour of the wine making process at all. That said, the wine, food and setting were amazing and I’d highly recommend. Really good value for money.”
Bardolino vineyard and gravity-flow cellar tour with 4 wine tastings, local cheese and cold cuts, plus panoramic lake views.
“Very friendly host and she had great knowledge of the area, the history and the production. Great wines and the bread, ham and cheese served with the wine can easily pass for a light lunch. We tasted four different wines, one olive oil, enjoyed the view in a relaxing mood and saw the production and storage afterwards. It’s possible to buy wine and olive oil in the shop. The host was fluid in Italian, German and English (possibly more, but that was what we heard).”

90-minute Verona food tour with olive oil, street-food pizza, chocolate tastings, and Risino plus guided sights in a small group.
“Our guide was very friendly and the food we tasted was good. It was also nice to have a little chat with the owner of the chocolate shop. However, most of the tastings were sweet, so you should not expect to be not hungry after the tour anymore. Fortunately, our guide had the perfect tip for an osteria where we had a delicious dinner in a unique environment.”

“We had a lovely afternoon with Martina. It was so nice to get to know her better and understand what the Italian lifestyle is truly like.

La bottega della Gina was my favourite - the truffle pasta was SUBLIME!!”
