Meet Your Host, Brooke
Hi! I'm Brooke, and I believe deeply that life is too short to eat bad food. After spending many months in Italy and receiving countless requests to guide food tours, I started taking groups of women to Rome for the trip of a lifetime. I look forward to showing you my favorite parts of the Eternal City (and eating copious amounts of gelato)!

Meet Your Trip Leader, Colette
Hi, I’m Colette! I’m a recent Microbiology graduate from Weber State University and am headed to Washington D.C. to intern at the US Capitol. I love camping out for front-row views at concerts, shopping for funky fashion, and planning themed parties with my friends. I can’t wait to join you in Italy next year!

Set Your Alarms!
Tickets for the Tuscany Tour will be sold on femalefoodietours.com on Thursday morning on June 1st, 2023 at 8PT/9MT/10CT/11ET. Spots will be first come, first served. See you then!
