Do Eat Better Experience - Food Tours in Genoa

We had booked the street food tour and our guide was Marina. Marina showed us spots, we wouldn‘t have found on our own and we learned a lot about genova. Of course we ate great food and it was really a pleasure to spend these hours with Marina. We can warmly recommend doing this tour.

Fantastic tour. Meeting place was a bit confusing to find, but when we'd managed to locate our guide the tour got off to a great start with fresh seafood from a small kiosk right in the harbor. We sampled local delicacies in places we would never have found out ourselves, and our guide was great company too. This was one of the best tours ever, highly recommend!

Marina was the best host! each stop had delicious food and sufficient to really get a good bite. You shouldn't miss out.

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to leave this food tour hungry, so that alone is worth it. However, you will also experience some of the best food of your life and learn so much about Genoa in the process. Valeria was an incredible tour guide; such an interesting person with a real passion for her hometown. We would absolutely love to visit Genoa and when we do, we wouldn't hesitate to book another food tour through this company. If you're on the fence about booking, just do it! This was one of the best tours we ever did!

The group contacted us the day before with excellent instructions how to find our guide after coming off the ship. The guide was on time, walked at a casual pace. His tour commentary was casual - not too caught up in dates and persons, trying to cram as much history as possible into the time. Spoke more on the culture, what the locals enjoyed, some of the history, and the FOOOOD. We picked the pizza, focaccia lunch tour since our daughter would best like that one. My tip - skip eating breakfast, or eat only a light breakfast. We ate ourselves silly. Small walk - light snack - small walk - sit down restaurant with gourmet pizza, 3 kinds. Small walk - streetside deli for another trial of local fare. Small walk - another restaurant with another type of amazing pizza. Small walk - GELATO! The guide was very aware of the insane-hot temperatures. Kept the water coming to the table as well as soda if we wanted one, we don't drink alcohol, but wine was available. The buildings offered "European AC" which means they were cooler than outside, but not the sub-Arctic temps we US citizens usually see. It was a very pleasant way to while away 3.5 hours and we got to see some beautiful buildings in between eating ourselves silly.

Somehow, we'd totally thought we booked some kind of cooking class through Do Eat Better, so when we arrived in Genoa and realized we'd be eating our way through the city while we walked, we were initially skeptical. But we quickly learned that this was a really unique, delicious way to see the sights from a local's perspective. Our guide was really, really incredible. Not only did she share with us facts about the landmarks and local traditions, but she pointed out personal stories (like the building her family used to manage a restaurant in, for example, or where she attended school on the top floor of a beautiful building). In the best way possible, we felt like we had met a friend who was guiding us through their hometown. Our tour was just us (my husband and me) and a family of four from our cruise ship. It was perfect. Pasta. Focaccia. Wine. Gelato. Show up HUNGRY.

Was a super good experience with an excellent guide. The food was amazing. Extremely good value. Was as good or Better than comparable ones we've tried in other cities. Would highly recommend.

An amazing tour with just the best tour guide Marina. We were promised food and they outdid themselves. Everything we had was excellent. Marina made sure we received anything we wanted. She managed our group of 9 wonderfully. And the food vendors were excellent. Would not hesitate to recommend this tour and give it a 10/10! Fantastic value for the amount paid.

Marina did our food tour in Genoa and was simply the best!! She walked us around to some of the places offering all the local specialties! We tasted Everything! She explained the history and significance of these incredible dishes and mixed in local history and interesting facts about the town as we walked. Totally enjoyed the experience w Marina and left totally full and with great understanding of the local food. She even stopped off at a great market so we could buy things to take home with us!! 6 stars if I could!!

We signed up last minute for this tour and are really glad we did. AnnaLisa was a great guide, easy to talk to and clearly knows and loves Genoa. We tasted some amazing local food and got to see the highlights of the city. You won't walk away hungry!
