About this activity
Meet your local guide in central Florence and begin your 3-hour gourmet tour of the city! Italians usually start their morning at a café with a strong cup of coffee, so follow your guide to a typical Italian coffee bar, where you can try two types of delicious coffee and learn about the local roasting process.

Continue to an old delicatessen founded in 1885, where you’ll enjoy a panino tartufato, a delicate, truffle pâté sandwich made with the truffles for which the deli is famous. As you continue to your next food stop, listen as your guide illustrates the history of Florence’s most important squares where Florentines used to buy their food. Learn about typical local dishes and ingredients, but don’t expect detailed how to’s – Italians would never give away their secret family recipes!

To understand how Italians prepare their delicious plates, take a trip to the San Lorenzo Central Market, one of the main shopping centers in Florence known for fresh, locally grown ingredients. Taste some of the region’s best balsamic vinegars and extra virgin olive oils with crostini, traditional toasted Italian bread.

Your tour continues to a local wine shop, known as an enoteca, where you'll savor two Tuscan wines, accompanied by delicious regional cheeses and local meats. While you enjoy your tasting, learn about the origins of the food and wine from your guide. Top it off with something sweet at the final stop of your tour, one of Florence's best gelato shops where you’ll indulge in freshly made gelato!

At the end of your Florence food walking tour, you’ll leave feeling like a local.

Our guide was very passionate about wine, food and Florence. Food was good and just enough. The market area is very good, and worth a visit on its own for the variety of food available there.

While in Florence for three days we decided to spend our first evening tasting the sites. Our guide was very pleasant and knowledgeable. The sites we visited provided super tasty specialties of the area to include wines, balsalmic vinegar and olive oils. Other selections included meats, cheeses, tiramisu, gelatto and more. I thought the portions were a bit small.The sites visited are worth remembering and revisiting...they are that good! Our group had a deliciously appetizing evening!

The Florence Food Walking Tour was a great experience. I would highly recommend this tour. Valentina was a great tour guide, knowledgeable, entertaining and fun to be with. We had a lovely fun group from France, America, Australia and England and we had a lovely time. The highlight for me was the wine tasting with commentary from an award winning sommelier. The snacks that accompanied the wine were lovely as well. The tour of the market with olive oil tasting, ham and salami, beer and of course the truffle sandwich and the fabulous gelato to complete the trip made this a fabulous tour. Just book this tour - you will not be disappointed
