Best Florence Tour and Guide - We had the best time on our tour. There were 4 of us. We walked all around Sta Croce and learned about Italian culture and food. Which brings me to the food and wine, which were sensational. Don’t miss out on the fun! PS our guide is a Sommelier, we were so lucky to have such a talented guide!

Florence foods! - What a great way to start our trip in Florence. Guido was our guide and he was amazing. We went to several different places and tried bruschetta, cold colds, a traditional fried Florence food, pasta, gelato, and wine! Such a fun night, thanks Guido.

Great food/wine walking tour - Guide, our guide, was pleasant, calm and knowledgeable. He spoke very fluent English. The food and wine were very good! Most of the stops were very close to each other. Water was offered at each stop as well. Gelato as a finale was the best I've had in Italy.

Wonderful food, wine, and company! - We were a group of 12 and had an absolutely wonderful time on this walking food tour of Florence. Our guide, Lucia, was fantastic — funny, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. We started with some delicious bruschetta, then enjoyed a selection of cold cuts, followed by a perfect pasta course, and finished with amazing gelato. Each dish was paired with a delicious wine that complemented the flavors beautifully. I had planned to take photos of all the dishes and wines, but we were having such a great time chatting, laughing, and savoring everything that I completely forgot! A true sign of a memorable experience. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves good food, good wine, and great company!

The tour guide was... - The tour guide was condescending and rude any time we tried to ask questions or engage in conversation. The last thing I wanted to hear about was her life for over two hours, which is what this tour turned into….
