Pick this tour. Stop looking. You're welcome. - The tour was great! We've done food tours before and figured we'd enjoy this one, too, but it far exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed a LOT of food and everything was delicious, followed by a trip to an off-the-beaten-path wine cellar where we enjoyed a glass of white and a glass of red. I liked the white so much I ordered a case (never done that before). Plus, just hanging out with our tour guide, Christy, was fun. She was super knowledgable, relaxed, and easy to talk to. I spent hours looking for the just the right tour and I'm glad I did. Totally worth it.

Book now!! - We booked this tour on our Italian honeymoon. We had the pleasure of having Tatiana as our local guide and she was such a lovely person. We had such a great day with her and learnt so much. We have booked local private tours in all our stops and we couldn’t be happier. If you are thinking of booking this than don’t think twice. No regrets and you not only get great food and wine, but a friendship as well. Thanks so much Tatiana and until next time, Grazie!

Tasting wonderful Florentine foods - Tatania was a great guide and did a wonderful job of showing us Florentine food from local vendors. The food was marvelous. It was so nice to get away from the crowds and see a local market.

Amazing Food Tour in Florence - Highly recommend. Christy was a superb guide and our tour was equally brilliant. It was fun for our entire family of six — including kids from 18 to 7yrs old. The variety of foods, the flavors, the walking tour of Florence and her fun, informative style all contributed to an experience everyone loved and none will forget. Thank you, Christy!
