Itinerary
Meet your guide in Piazza Santo Spirito
Your evening begins in one of Florence's most vibrant and authentic squares, where locals gather for sunset aperitivo. Look for your guide wearing a purple Eating Europe bag by the fountain, ready to lead you into the heart of Florence's culinary scene.
Prosecco toast in a lively Florentine square
Raise your glass for your first taste of the evening, a crisp Prosecco that sets the tone for the night ahead. Your guide shares stories about Florence's drinking culture and the role of aperitivo in Italian life while you soak in the energy of the piazza around you.
Stanley Tucci's secret wine windows
Next, follow your guide through narrow streets to uncover Florence's famous wine windows, small openings in Renaissance palaces where wine was once sold directly to passersby. You'll even taste wine poured through one of these historic buchette, just like Stanley Tucci did during his travels through Italy.
Meet the King of Cheese
Step into a local shop to meet a passionate cheese expert who introduces you to authentic pecorino and parmigiano. Learn how these cheeses are aged, what makes them distinct, and why Tuscan pecorino tastes different from any other region's version.
Hidden centuries-old wine cellar
Descend into a secret wine cellar that's been tucked beneath Florence's streets for centuries. Sip Chianti Classico and Super Tuscan wines while your guide explains the evolution of Tuscan winemaking and the bold innovations that created the Super Tuscan category.
Traditional Tuscan soup and fresh pasta
Settle in for a taste of Tuscany's zero-waste cooking tradition with pappa al pomodoro or ribollita, hearty bread soups that showcase the region's resourcefulness. Then, savor fresh pasta prepared by a local chef, paired with more Tuscan wine and stories of Florence's culinary roots.
Negroni cocktail demo
Learn about Florence's most famous cocktail invention, the Negroni, and discover the story behind its creation. You'll get insights into how to make the perfect Negroni while enjoying this iconic bitter-sweet drink that's become a global favorite.
Authentic gelato tasting
End your culinary journey with a lesson in spotting fake gelato versus the real thing. Your guide walks you through what to look for before treating you to a scoop of authentic, artisanal gelato made with natural ingredients and traditional methods.
