Top Pescara Walking Tours

I am a food and travel writer with passion for all things Abruzzo. It is my job to know the best foodie spots in Pescara and Abruzzo and I'll be happy to share them with you! My groups are small, never more than 6 people, so my tours feel more like a friends' outing, with loads of laughs and delicious bites of the best local specialties. While we gorge on local cheeses, cured meats, baked goodies, gelato, pizza etc., I will tell you about the region's culinary traditions, history behind some of the foods, local anecdotes and recommend my favourite places to eat and visit in the region. The tour includes 7-8 tasting stops. Vegetarian options available. Click on Abruzzo With Gusto and then "More" to contact me directly.
