Over the course of this three-hour tour we’ll visit different areas of town to learn more about Florentine food culture and experience Florence like a local!

Here are some of the highlights you can expect:

  • Learn to properly taste extra virgin olive oil and how to pair it with food. Warning: this is guaranteed to turn you into an olive oil snob!
  • Sample the truffle sandwich loved by generations of Florentines and the Italian royal family alike, paired with a glass of sparkling wine (morning tours) OR learn the history of the Negroni, Florence's famous cocktail, and taste your favorite version of this classic drink (afternoon tours).
  • Take a load off at a hidden wine bar — located in a 12th-century cellar — where you’ll taste some of our favourite red wines and some of the best cured meats and cheese that Tuscany and Puglia have to offer.
  • Explore the Oltrarno area, one of the most colorful areas of Florence.
  • Taste my favorite gelato in Florence, it won’t disappoint!
