Wonderful way to experience the authentic Florence food experience! We had an amazing time on our food tour of Florence. Marco was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We ate delicious food and learned so much about the food culture and the city. I would definitely recommend this tour--I want to take it again!

So tasty excursion! A wonderful experience to see Florence not from the tourist side, but to really understand how the locals live and what they prefer, how they go to the market, make acquaintances with the sellers, try the most delicious Cantucci, as well as the street food Lampredotto, taste wines and finish it all with real gelato. I would definitely recommend it.Thanks to our guide Kristina!
