Fantastic Local Food + Wine Journey - I loved experiencing the Oltrarno with a certified local for the sunset wine and food tour. Chiara was a fantastic guide, so fun and knowledgeable. She really made the entire 3-hour tour a great experience. All of the restaurants and bars and people we met along the way were so gracious and kind and fun. This was my first time back to Florence since studying there in college 14 years ago and it was like seeing a new side to the city. Would recommend this tour to anyone.

Hi light of Florence! - This was an incredible, authentic tour of the real Florence. Martina was knowledge and passionate about her city. Not only that, we stopped at places and met owners who were equally as passionate in their establishments and the culture of the city. An absolute highlight for us!

Definitely add this to your itinerary! - This was a great tour and a great start to our trip to Florence. I always like to do a tour like this right away. You always seem to visit areas you may not have seen on your own, and it's shows you parts of the city so you can have ideas on where to go during the rest of your trip. This tour provided several wine tastings at several bars and shops, included small bites and a small meal at the end, and topped off with some amazing gelato! It came with some history of the area, as well as a stop at one of the still working wine windows.

Highly Recommend - but if you are a foodie - know what to expect then it will be wonderful! - We booked this tour for the same evening that we arrived in Italy (Florence was our first stop). We wanted to get a tour of the area while also getting some dinner. This tour delivered, and then some. Esther was our guide. She was very knowledgeable and engaging. We made many stops tasting food and wine along the way, starting with a glass of prosecco at the meeting location and ending the 3+ hour tour with gelato. We are foodies, and while the food that we got were all very good (my son still raves about the prosciutto and melon at one of the stops), don't expect a gourmet experience. This tour is about tasting simple and local dishes and wines -- and learning new and interesting tidbits and history. It was a great way to start our trip. The part that I didn't expect was meeting and engaging with others in our tour group. There were about 16 of us. Everyone was very friendly and so much fun to talk to. I think the company added to the experience. Highly recommend!
