    WHAT TO EXPECT

    Visiting Il Mercato Centrale is a fantastic experience for several reasons:

    1. Culinary Variety: It offers a wide range of local and regional Italian foods, from fresh produce to artisanal cheeses, cured meats, and baked goods.
    2. Authentic Atmosphere: The market has a vibrant, bustling atmosphere where you can immerse yourself in Italian culture and interact with local vendors.
    3. Tasting Opportunities: Many stalls offer samples, allowing you to try various dishes and products before purchasing.
    4. Unique Souvenirs: You can find artisanal products and gourmet ingredients that make for perfect souvenirs or gifts.

    Overall, Il Mercato Centrale is a feast for the senses and a must-visit for food lovers!

    The night won't be too difficult as it is all flat with many times to stop and get those incredible pictures you won't be able to resist. All up there will be roughly 5km covered.

    The walk should take us around 2.5 - 3 hours to complete, depending on our pace and includes the lush and varied Flagstaff Gardens, gorgeous city views and the authentic Italian cuisine at the Il Mercato Centrale.

    At the Market we will be able to explore at our own leisure and meet for a group cheers and some photos together before calling it a night at the market itself. 

    All ages and fitness levels are welcome to this event.
