Flavors of Florence Walking Food Tour

Start with a visit to the city’s largest food market where local grocers and vendors sell their fresh produce to local Florentines each morning, and step into the small shops of local, independent culinary artisans and sample their deliciously authentic products.

Walk in step with your own private guide to the best selection of food producers in the capital where you’ll enjoy breads, cheeses, salami, crostini, sweets, balsamic vinegars, olive oils, and seasonal specialties with a delicious paired wine tasting to match. All the while, you will learn about the history of Florence, its food culture, and its local specialties.

Your guide will also teach you about Italian food customs and ways of life: from local tricks of what to order (and when!), to how these specialties are produced.

Plate up: this tour will leave you full of wonder and just plain full.
