Highlights
  • Do Eat Better Experience - Milan Food Tour - Milan has always been characterized by a great passion for patisserie. The city of panettone has opened the doors to many pastry chefs, who have brought their art under the Madonnina statue since the nineteenth century. Luxury, historical boutiques and modern, bright colored patisseries, compete over who comes top.

Only in our discovery tour of milanese pastry and bakery you can try these two, apparently distant, realities which are actually bonded by the love for high quality desserts. Even if it doesn’t look like it, milanese people are gluttonous by nature and always find a moment to go to the bakery. Maybe it won’t be a long visit but for few minutes they will relax and enjoy their favorite dessert.

We will take our time to make you live and learn about the milanese patisserie in a time travel experience between flavours and, above all, emotions. Along our tour “The Gluttonous Milan” you will get to know some of the most characteristic patisserie specialties in Milan.

  • Via della Moscova - We start with a typical dessert of northern Italy and especially of the area between Milan and Novara. In the Milanese: cannoncini.
    After that, you will taste the famous panettone, the symbol of Milanese bakery tradition.
  • Tourspain - We continue with the typical marron glacé, a very ancient dessert, simple, but with a great taste.
  • Piazza Mercanti - You cannot came to Milano and don’t try the delicious Pasticceria pastries: well known and appreciated throughout Italy. It is the custom to bring them to the family Sunday lunch. Of various shapes, sizes and colours, pastry chefs have invented all types and it is precisely from mignon pastry that you can understand the talent and the art spirit of a great chef.
  • Via Speronari - Are you chocolate lovers? You can not miss the prized Milan pralines! The perfect end for a wonderful tour!

AMAZING! 100% Recommend - Our guide Piera was phenomenal! She took us all around the city and we got to try so many different delicious foods— both modern and traditional Milano desserts! Not only did she know good spots, but she was so knowledgeable about the history of Milan and shared that with us! I 100% recommend you do this if you’re considering! We have such great memories (and pictures) from this experience!

Pastries were great - Great tour. Antonio was a wonderful guide and the selection of pastry and candy shops to visit was wonderful. Walking through Brera and near the Duomo to find the shops was an interesting way to see parts of the city.

Perfect Pastry Tour - This tour was absolutely amazing. Michela, our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and also the shops we visited. She has a great charisma and was extremely easy to talk to and get along with. If you like pastry and are going to be in Milan my wife and I could not recommend this more, and will be recommending it to friends and family if they visit

Good tour - The pastries were wonderful but it was too much. Our guide was kind and very mindful of us but the noise around us prohibited detailed descriptions of the areas along the way to the shops.
