The experience

A five-stop walking tour along Milan’s Navigli canals, with six food tastings and three drinks from aperitivo through to dessert.

Starting at the Arco di Porta Ticinese, the walk follows the picturesque Navigli canals through five stops, moving from aperitivo-style bites toward heartier plates as the evening goes on, with the guide sharing the history of the canal district along the way.

Tastings run from hand-stretched pizza and fresh carpaccio to traditional chickpea pancakes and a step-by-step introduction to a classic Italian dessert, paired throughout with Italian wine, for an evening that reads as much as a walk through Navigli as a meal.
