Florence isn't just the capital city of Tuscany or the birthplace of the Renaissance, it is a world-class culinary destination. Join us as we dive deep into the food culture of Florence and taste some of the iconic dishes of this one-of-a-kind city. From mouthwatering truffle sandwiches to artisan bread, traditional cheeses, salami, wine, and a variety of seasonal specialities, our Florence food tours are designed to paint a full picture of Florence's vibrant culinary landscape. Your tour starts in one of Florence's charming bars where we'll kick start our day with an authentic Italian Coffee tasting experience. From there, we'll stop at Mercato Centrale (also known as San Lorenzo Market), Florence's oldest market, where your guide will help you select and taste a variety of local dishes (please note the San Lorenzo market visit is upstairs only during the evening food tour, if you'd like to visit the downstairs market, please choose the morning food tour). We'll also visit an authentic wine shop where we'll taste a Tuscan wine with a local sommelier. Our Florence food tour will conclude with some authentic Florentine gelato! No visit to Florence is complete without tasting the iconic flavours of this Tuscan capital. With a duration of around 3 & 1/2 hours, our local food tour, which is limited to 14 participants, is the perfect way to get absorbed in the culinary history and culture of this spectacular city.
