Mailand: Food- und Drinks-Tour durch die Navigli bei Sonnenuntergang

Die Tour war außergewöhnlich gut. Unser Guide Michela war sehr natürlich, unaufgeregt und freundlich. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen und gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Die Tour führte von einem ausgezeichneten Aperitivo zu einer kleinen Pizzeria, in die wir sonst nicht betreten hätten- war ausgezeichnet. Wir waren dann schon gut angegessen und dann kam eine Risotteria, die ich unbedingt nochmal besuchen möchte. Reis auf ganz hohem Niveau. Die Runde Spritz und das hervorragende Eis waren ein gelungener Abschluss. Die Zeit war wie geplant 3 Stunden und es war sehr kurzweilig. Wir haben schon viele Foodtouren besucht, aber diese war mit Abstand die beste. Großes Kompliment an Michela. Vielen Dank, es war ein bleibendes Erlebnis. Ganz liebe Grüße

Our guide, Alessandra, was lovely, friendly and welcoming, so this review is certainly not a reflection on her personally. Overall, the tour was pleasant, but it wasn’t quite the “fun night out” we had hoped for. You get some nice snacks, good drinks and a very enjoyable risotto, but we found the evening a little slow at times and felt it lacked some energy. I think this is more about personal preference and expectations than anything being wrong with the tour. For those looking for a relaxed, organised evening, particularly older couples or retirees who enjoy the social aspect of a group tour, it could be a great fit. For younger couples or those wanting something more lively and spontaneous, I’m not sure the three-hour commitment is necessary. We personally felt we could have explored the area ourselves, visited a few bars and restaurants and had just as much, if not more, fun without the structure of a group. Perfectly pleasant, just not quite the experience we expected.

We booked this Navigli food tour expecting a curated culinary experience wrapped in the history and atmosphere of Milan’s famous canals. Instead, it felt like an poorly planned, exhausting walking tour with minimal connection to the actual neighborhood. Our guide, Federico, was generally disagreeable and provided almost zero storytelling or cultural context about the food or the area. The logistics of the tour were highly frustrating. Out of the 5 stops, 3 of them weren't even located on the canals. The walks between the venues were exceptionally long. Between the lack of narrative, the disagreeable guide, and the fact that we spent most of our time walking away from the canals rather than enjoying them, this tour was a major disappointment. I would not recommend it.
