Amazing Eating Europe tour in Florence, Italy. - It started with Tina serving us prosecco at the Piazza Santo Spirito and the day just got better and better. Tina was joyful and fun loving engaging everyone in our party. We went to many shops sampling traditional amazing Italian foods and wines. Each shop visited was met with joy and warmth as Tina introduced us to shopkeepers she has known for years. It really felt special; Each meal was better than the previous meal; with our final meal being a slow cooked boar stew with an amazing super Tuscan wine and an uncompromising Italian cocktail. Eating Europe once again did a fantastic job !! I highly recommend this tour with Tina without reservation!! We had a previous experience with Eating Europe in Lisbon; also great. This company clearly knows what they are doing!!

Great way to spend the morning - Tina was a wonderful tour guide for the local foods and drinks of Florence & Tuscany. She was descriptive and helpful in all areas of local cuisine and culture. The choice of locations and foods presented a full day’s worth of gastronomy in 3 hours without overstuffing yourselves.

Amazing!!! Great food, Amazing Guide! - The food was stellar, and Ms. Martina (Also known as Tina) was truly a spectacular guide! Amazing Gelato, got to try Cantucci, had some great DOCG Wine, and got a lot of answered questions about the history of Florence and the history of food. This was a perfect way to start my morning. Thank you, Tina!
