Street food tour in La Spezia

Pesto course with chef in Manarola

Did you know that every city has its own unique and special flavor? In La Spezia, you can discover it: step by step, bite by bite, and sip by sip, you'll savor the very best of the local food and wine tradition. Join us for a guided walk through the heart of the city, among picturesque alleys, lively squares and historic shops, where every corner holds authentic flavors and fascinating stories. Led by an expert local guide, during this culinary journey you will also visit the Central Market, an open-air space filled with colors, aromas and voices that speak of tradition.

You will taste many typical foods, such as focaccia with pesto, artisanal cold cuts and cheeses of the nearby Val di Vara, the "trippa alla spezzina" prepared according to the authentic local recipe, chestnut castagnaccio, freshly baked chickpea farinata, the local-style pizza — a true must — and, depending on availability and seasonality, other local specialities.

During the tour, your guide tells you the history, characteristics and secrets behind each specialty. An experience that brings you into the most authentic flavors of Liguria, paired with tastings of excellent local wine.
