Summary:
We heard about this walk from our Milan wine guide. What a great experience! This was a fun evening walk through the main squares of Padua, where we stayed as a base to visit Venice and Verona. The walk included stops in two charming and authentic wine bars, where we sampled wines and finger food at each one. Our guide Mario was incredibly knowledgeable and we came away with a nice overview of the wines of this part of Italy. We really appreciated the suggestions for restaurants from a local’s perspective too.
