 ARE THE FOOD TOURS SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN?

Our food tasting and cultural tours have been developed especially for food and history lovers. We find that some children have a blast on our tours and if you think yours will, please bring them along – our tours are great for young history and food lovers, too, as well as future chefs!

When you make your reservation please inform us you are bringing a child on the tour, so that your tour guide can be prepared. Please also note that strollers can be a challenge on the tour due to the many narrow sidewalks that we walk on, certain staircases that we use when entering establishments, and the very small shops that we visit. If you have further questions please contact us.
