Florence Food Tour
Immerse yourself in the mouth-watering world of Tuscan gastronomy on this unforgettable food tour of Florence and indulge your tastebuds on the finest local delicacies.
Florence Food Tour
After meeting at 6 pm at Piazza della Signoria, we'll cross the River Arno towards Oltrarno, one of the most historic districts of Florence. Accompanied by an expert guide passionate about Tuscan cuisine, you'll spend the next two and a half hours strolling through the winding streets of Florence, stopping several times along the way for food tastings in traditional establishments.
We'll make our first stop to enjoy a glass of red wine accompanied by a cheeseboard and cured meats. What's more, you'll also get to try crostini, a bread that's one of the most famous Italian appetisers.
Continuing through the charming streets of Oltrarno, we'll make another stop where we'll be welcomed in with a glass of dry red classic Chianti, one of the most popular Tuscan wines. We'll pair our wine with some typical Florentine snacks - delicious!
Our next stop will be at Piazza Santo Spirito, next to the basilica of the same name, where you'll hear all about the stories that link the great Michelangelo with this place. We'll then stop at another place to continue enjoying the cuisine of Florence. It's time for focaccia with salt and oil, and a sweet treat of cantuccini, almond-based biscuits.
Our tour will come to an end at 8:30 pm, indulging in a delicious artisan ice cream, or gelato.
