RAVENNA FOOD AND ART TOUR

If you are interested in discovering the flavors and aromas of the typical cuisine of Ravenna and the Romagna region, this tour is absolutely for you.

I am a certified tour guide of this region, but also a food and wine lover. I do a lot of food tours in Bologna, but I was born and raised in Ravenna, here I graduated as a wine taster and I opened for some years my wine bar with service of local wine and regional food, so I designed this tour for all those who want to discover the foodie side of the city, but with some touches of our stunning art.

This tour is mostly about experiencing food, wine and how it is made with some stops about mosaic art. If you want to book my cultural art tour of the city, please note that in this tour we will visit different places from the one listed there, so it can be a wider experience for you if you want to do both tours with me.
