The PERFECT tour - We had such an amazing time on this tour! It’s the perfect harmony between a food tour a historical walking tour. Everything we tasted was superb we did not have to wait at any of our stops and our guide chatted with us like we were old friend catching up. Highly recommend this tour.

Food and wine in Florence - perché no? - Marta was our guide and we really enjoyed our morning with her walking the streets of Florence checking out markets and food vendors. Added such richness to our time in Florence and she added to our knowledge far beyond the food aspect!

Food-Tour where you meet new friends :) - Embarking on this food adventure through Florence was an absolute blast from start to finish! The tour took us on a delightful journey through the city's culinary scene, with a special twist at the local Sant’Ambrogio market that added a real charm.
Our guide showed a genuine love for Florence's food scene. She shared fascinating stories about the history and importance of each food spot, making the whole experience feel like a tasty lesson. Overall, the whole group was very friendly so made some great friends
The food selection was beyond amazing, from local cheeses and cured meats to the delight of genuine Italian gelato. My personal best was the panino place Antico Vinaio, first I was shocked with the huge line of people, to my surprise and delight we had some special „skip a line” privilege :D. Panino was amazing even the line would be worth it.
We finished with the ice-cream and some Italian wine I recommend all the way!

Culinary Delights in Florence! - This tour was an absolute delight from start to finish! The experience is an unforgettable journey through the Florence's culinary scene, with a special focus on the local Sant’Ambrogio market.
Our guide was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about Florence's rich food culture. She shared fascinating stories about the history and significance of each culinary stop. The selection of food was diverse, ranging from local cheeses and cured meats to fresh, authentic Italian gelato.
The highlight of the tour was undoubtedly the stop at All’Antico Vinaio. The skip-the-line saved us valuable time, and the “focaccia” we tasted were delicious. The combination of high-quality ingredients and the expertise of the staff created an unforgettable taste sensation!
The group size was perfect, ensuring a personalized experience, and the pace was just right, allowing us to savor each moment without feeling rushed.
In the end I would say that this is definitely a fantastic way to immerse yourself in the culinary treasures of this beautiful city!

Tuscany in a nutshell - Me and my friend attended this tour in November 2023. We were in a small group of 8 people which made us feel very comfortable because we were able to interact with our guide in a more personal way. We visited multiple stops and tasted a lot of various typical dishes for this area - among others the famous All’Antico Vinaio with skip the line which was very appreciated. The overall activity lasted for about 3 hours and we enjoyed every minute of it! We would recommend this tour to everyone who wants to experience and taste typical Tuscany in a nutshell.
I would like to thank our guide Lisa for a wonderful morning/afternoon and for a lot of interesting things she told us among the way.

A Guide to the Local Spots! - We were the only people on the tour, so it felt very special and personal for is. Irene is a great guide and very knowledgeable. The food we tasted were in areas most frequented by locals and the food was very rustic - very Florentine. We took the morning tour, so we walked first to a local cafe to try a pastry and have a coffee of our choosing, then we went to the local farmer’s market where we tried crostinis with beef pate and tripe (we weren’t huge fans of this but we always try everything and it was quite tasty!), a local nearby grocery store to have little sandwiches, cheeses, and meats with a sampling of wine and finally ended with gelato. We covered a lot of ground we wouldn’t see otherwise without following a local and learning so much about the city. It was a fun time!
