About Gourmet Girls Italy

When Gourmet Girls launched in 2018, our mission was to share our vast knowledge of food indigenous to this glorious region and also to offer unique insight into its humble roots as well the local culture revolving around it.

Our vision was to set ourselves apart by aiming our sight above and beyond a  generic food tour. We wanted to ensure our guests would experience a taste of the cultural heritage that exists at the very heart of Italy’s national identity that so organically connects friends and families around the dinner table–the kind of ‘backdrop’ you might always have imagined about dining in Italy.

We envisioned lingering in relaxed settings chatting casually, sampling diverse and time-honoured dishes and regional wines while imparting invaluable insight into the origins of recipes and how they evolved into contemporary Italian cuisine.

We imagined intimate groups of like-minded people and hoped we might bring about lasting connections that went beyond food and wine. What we couldn’t have foreseen was just how true that would become.

This was our vision. Our dream. And today, with deep gratitude for the overwhelming number of fantastic 5-star reviews and amazing feedback received from our delightful guests, we think we can can humbly say that we did it.
