Incredible taste of Florence! - Martina (Tina) absolutely blew me away with her knowledge, relationship with the people who owned the businesses we visited, and her friendliness and lovely personality!

Wonderful! - Kiara was wonderful! What an amazing way to see the a different side of the city from the tourist hustle and bustle. We stopped at some of the most authentic and delicious places. Tried the most insane truffle cheese (obviously bought some to go too). The Lampredotto was super tasty and all the desserts were on point. Come hungry! You will not be disappointed. Great add to any trip.

Five stars – a perfect taste of Florence! - Our tour with Ciara was the highlight of our trip. She brought Florence to life with her knowledge, warmth, and passion for local food and culture. Every stop felt authentic and personal, from the markets to the trattorias. It felt less like a tour and more like exploring the city with a friend who knows all its secrets. Highly recommend!
