Learn about history and culture through food and wine. - Kiara was very informative, friendly and made the tour a lot of fun. The group was only 5 people total so there was a lot of personal interaction between Kiara and all of us in the group. We made 2 stops for breakfast foods and 2 stops for lunch foods and then a stop for gelato. It was a great sampling of local food in the Oltrarno district and was plenty of food for the rest of the day until maybe a late dinner. Kiara shared a lot of information about Tuscan culture and the history behind the foods and wine we sampled. I would highly recommend this tour and Kiara.

Amazing Experience! - Did the Other Side of Florence Food Tour with Kiara and had an amazing experience! Kiara took us through the Oltrarno area of Florence and several family owned food spots. Each one with cultural references that gives you a better understanding of the city, its residents, and the food. Highly recommend!
