Excellent - Walking around the city tasting the food and wine is really a great way to enjoy where you are. The places we went were very interesting and would have never seen them on my own. The highlight for me was the wine window.

Fun, food and florence facts. - The tour was great. A little confusion as to where exactly to meet but we eventually found a guy holding a sign. The best part for me was the wine tasting. I had the white and it was fantastic. Clare the tour guide was full of knowledge and facts. Very lovely personality too.

Good way to spend first day in Florence - Frederico took us to a handful of nice places around the Piazza. The tour doesn't go to restaurants but we learned a lot about the delicacies in Tuscany. And we went to a wine and cheese stop, chocolate store, gelateria and a panini store. Good food and a helpful guide who taught us about the region.
I'd recommend you do this tour at the beginning of your time in Florence. If you've already been in town a few days you and have already explored a bit you probably won't learn as much.
