Loving Welsh Food is run by Sian Roberts, who speaks five languages including Welsh and has a long career in Wales’ food scene, having produced food-focused TV and radio shows, promotional films and more. She and her fellow guides love sharing their detailed knowledge of the Welsh food scene, along with anecdotes about their local area.

Sian says:

“Our food tours are a really wonderful way to take in the sights while really getting to know the culture and culinary customs of Wales. Our tours include plenty of entertaining anecdotes, opportunities to meet with some of our best local chefs and food producers, and a chance to share the fun with others.”
