Explore the Navigli, Milan's liveliest canalside district, on a food and drink journey available in the morning or evening, each with its own stops and flavours. Follow a local guide past canals shaped by Leonardo da Vinci, into quiet Case di Ringhiera courtyards, and along Vicolo dei Lavandai, once used by washerwomen.
Choose the morning departure for a Milanese aperitivo of cured meats, cheeses and Prosecco, a family-run bakery with apple pastries, Ligurian farinata and focaccia di Recco, and a creamy saffron risotto finished with venison ragout and a glass of wine.
Choose the evening departure for Neapolitan-style pizza fritta paired with local beer, a canalside aperitivo of polenta, gorgonzola and charcuterie with wine, the same Ligurian farinata and focaccia, and a risotto or meatball tasting paired with wine.
Both routes end at a beloved gelato boutique, where a scoop made with milk instead of cream delivers a lighter, silkier finish. Book your spot and taste Milan, morning or night, the way locals do!
