A five-star for Lori - just a nice well-informed lady. A two-hour tour became four hours. We learned lots about Florence and the cuisine of Florence. The six quests mixed well. The food was ample and delicious with the steak the highlight.

Marco was great! We also met other visitors from Canada and the US who helped us enjoy the tour even more. Our first Florentine steak. I loved it. Made our tour of Florence even better.
A good tour group

The food stops were okay. We ate enough. We were disappointed with the "pasta" stop. It was an appetizer dish of 2 pieces of fried pasta. The Bistecca Fiorentina was ample and tasty even though we don't usually eat beef that is so rare. I wish the tour guide spoke better English. We enjoyed meeting the other participants.

I have to say this was such an amazing time out with a small group of people that became friends. Lori was an outstanding guide and was great at informing us of all local customs with food and wine. She showed us some fun areas, restaurants with such charm and great vibes. Come hungry because the Steak Dinner is the star the show. 10/10 overall with the entire experience. Bravo 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Great experience.

Marco was amazing. Very knowledgeable tour guide. He shows his passion for Italian food. Fun and good food tour. Only negative I have was the fried ravioli stop. How about a small dish of pasta, instead?
Amazing Food Tour

We had a wonderful time on the tour led by Federica, she took us to some local spots for some great wine and food. We went to three places, first, we had a great plate of crostinis and sliced meat, then some pasta at our next stop, and some traditional steak and potatoes at a trattoria. It was perfect for our first day in Florence, since we walked across the river from one of the squares in the city center, pointing out great places to eat and drink and getting great recommendations from the tour guide. The group was really friendly, we had a great time talking with other members of the group and we learned a ton from Federica, would definitely recommend the tour! Thank you!

The food was wonderful and a great sampling of different dishes. I loved that we got to sit down at each stop, learn about the culture, and chat with other guests. I only wish we had known the portions so we would’ve paced ourselves!
Great evening food tour with Lore’

We met up our food tour guide Lore at the designated spot 10 ‘minutes ahead of time, while she gave us a quick summary of what to expect. As we asked through the streets Lore added in some information on the artwork as we passed through it as she is very knowledgeable not just about the local cuisine but also the historic aspects of Florence. Our first stop consisted of appetizers which included cured meats and local delicacies which we learnt to enjoy the florentine way…To add, she has expert level knowledge of local wine, which I learnt a lot about without even food for my wine tour. (I have one coming up and I’m ready to show off. lol) Moving on to our primo, we stopped for a dried version of handmade pasta. As we walked along the streets, Lore would always keep us engaged, telling us stories from that particular area, piazzas, which made the historical elegance shine through and a lot more enjoyable than just walking the streets by yourself. Finally we stopped our main course restaurant, which was more than 150yrs old, for an awesome dinner. All our food came with wine pairing and expert knowledge from this dynamic lovely guide, Lore. She’s very passionate about local florentine ways of life in this region and that made all the difference to the way I felt during this tour. Our tour lasted for about 2.5 hrs. And I’d love to come back do a longer tour with her. Overall a 5 star experience!! Thanks Lore☺️
