A great introduction to SanRemo - We meet at the beautiful San Remo Casino. Had 8 people on our tour which is the perfect number. Roberta has a wealth of knowledge and as we had just arrived in San Remo everything was a new experience to us. The food and wine was delicious. Highly recommend.

We fell in love with this city after our tour - Roberta was a wonderful guide! After spending the day with her, we fell in love with her and Sanremo. She took us to places for excellent shopping, dining, and sites. We learned so much about the town's history. She even helped us book dinner reservations at a restaurant hidden in La Pina. Book this tour. You will not be disappointed.

An amazing experience! - An amazing experience! Roberta is an excellent guide. We were 26 persons, so she adjusted the hole tour for us, to provide us with a best possible tour. The food and wine were great, and the tour in the old city as well. Our best recommendations to Roberta and her associates.

Fun and Informative - Roberta was in a word excellent. She was very pleasant to spend time with and had information and insights that only someone who has lived the town could possess. She went above and beyond to be helpful in terms of selecting wines and oils with the local merchants and, got us an excellent dinner reservation.

Food and Roberta—the perfect combo! - Roberta was fabulous! She was so knowledgeable, personable, fun! She took great care of us and made sure everything went smoothly. We felt so taken care of, got to learn about the food of the region, along with the history of Sanremo, and got to visit many hidden gems of Sanremo. I highly recommend this tour—and Roberta!

Great tour, great guide and great food! - This tour really shows the history of Sanremo, as Roberta took us through all the special places and streets of the old town. The food included in the tour (&the wine) was amazing and the stories about the food were also very interesting. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely recommend it, also for the more 'young' travelers!

Great taste of Sanremo - Roberta is a great guide, very friendly and knowledgeable. We spent the whole morning walking in the medieval village, learning more about the less-visited area of Sanremo which holds so much history. Afterwards, we went to the local market and then to a winery where we had local wine and local specialties for lunch. I would recommend it for anyone who wants an authentic and less-touristy feel of Sanremo, with all its authentic Ligurian eats.
