About Vernazza
Vernazza packs an outsized food and wine scene into its handful of car-free lanes, where pesto is still pounded by hand and the surrounding hillsides yield lemons, olives and Sciacchetrà grapes. Walk the terraced vineyards above town on the Vernazza: Hike Heroic Vineyards with Local Wine Tasting, or stay closer to the harbour for the Pesto Making Class and Wine Tasting in Vernazza, a short, hands-on session built around Ligurian ingredients.

Frequently asked questions
Vernazza's food culture is tied to its terraced landscape: lemons, olives and grapes grown on steep coastal plots, plus Ligurian staples like pesto and fresh pasta. Many experiences are led by local hosts in small groups, so you taste the area's oil, wine and limoncino in the setting where they are actually produced rather than in a generic.
