Fun tour! - This tour was a fun way to spend a night out in Florence. Our tour guide was Anna and she was great!
We played a few games which added some extra fun to the evening. We went to 3 bars and a wine window. A drink included at each. This tour is great for solo travellers as well as groups. I would recommend trying this tour.

Absolutely wonderful time! BOOK IT! - It was an absolutely wonderful time. I was in a small tour group of about 6-7 people total so the experience was very personal. There was a lot of time at each location we visited which I found to be very important as it didn’t feel rushed whatsoever. I certainly learned a lot personally not only about some of the history and significance of each location that we had visited but also the drinks that we had at each location. I also am allergic to nuts and while normally for drinks this is not a concern (apart from Amaretto) I still was incredibly appreciative of the care that was taken by our wonderful tour guide Didar in making sure this was not an issue. (SHE WAS THE ABSOLUTE BEST BTW) overall I had a phenomenal time. I think this tour is absolutely worth it. If you are considering booking just do it. You will not be disappointed at all! Thank you Tipsy Tour and again thank you Didar!

Book this tour for a good time! - Michal was a great and super fun tour guide! I would recommend booking and asking for her if possible! Tipsy bar crawl is the best title, if you’re looking to get some fun knowledge and getting to know some random people in a fun way this is for you!

Maravilhoso - I booked the Tipsy Cooking class through TripAdvisor with Carpe Diem Tours. The chef kept it simple and hands-on: we cooked cacio e pepe and carbonara tagliatelle, learned the right timing and technique, and actually ate what we made—delicious. Drinks were Aperol Spritz, elderflower spritz, and a limoncello to finish. We were a group of four (two from Brazil, two from Ireland), and it felt relaxed, welcoming. Highly recommend great for family.
