Excellent
My parents (ages 79 &80) and I joined the Oltrarno at Sunset: Florence Food & Wine Tour in July, 2024. It was an incredible way to see the less tourist filled neighborhoods, meet great people and enjoy delicious local food. Our guide was very knowledgeable about Florence and shared it in a relaxed, friendly manner. You could feel her love for Florence. The group easily accommodated my parents slower pace. I highly recommend Devour food tours a look forward to the next city.

Great
Really fun tour. We had a great group of people. Great food and lovely people. The tour guide was super knowledgable and fun. We loved visiting the local establishments and learning about food history. We highly recommend this tour!! I am gluten-free and I was provided w/great alternatives at each stop. My 20 year old son has severe nut allergies and he was also accommodated w/the exception of gelato which would have been very difficult to accommodate and we assumed this going in. I do wish they would have had an option at the final dinner for the Italian rare steak on the bone-I forget what it is called. Guide said some places over a thinly sliced version that can be cooked more, I would have tried that, but I just could not get myself to eat the pile of nearly raw meat. However, my husband and son loved it! :) Amazing evening - highly recommend!

We initiated our adventure in Florence with this tour and it was perfect. Lorenzo showed us what makes Florence special, the history, the amazing food, the great wine and the people. He also made a group of strangers to feel as friends that met to enjoy a beautiful evening. Chin chin to Lorenzo!
