A lovely way to try out some local food and wine and see some of the sights of Trieste
elsjohnandrews, Jun 2026
A walking tour with a guide and four other people around part of Trieste whilst stopping off at various restaurants and cafes to enjoy a selection of small plates of local food and local wines. We stopped at 4 separate locations and were given a detailed description of what we were eating. A very friendly and experienced guide who will provide a recipe book afterwards for you covering the various items you sampled
