Guide tips

Itinerary

Meet your guide in central Florence

You’ll meet your guide and a small group of fellow travelers in central Florence. Look for the exact location on your booking voucher.

Sip and snack at a historic wine window

Wander to a traditional buchetta del vino, believed to be one of Florence’s oldest. Enjoy a glass of Tuscan wine and a crunchy tarallo as your guide shares stories of Renaissance-era merchants and quirky Florentine traditions.

Taste Tuscany’s comfort-food classics

Next, settle into a cozy enoteca (wine shop) with a kitchen for a variety of Tuscan flavors. Enjoy Prosciutto, salami, two cheeses, tomato bruschetta, classic thick tomato soup known as pappa al pomodoro, and two different paccheri pasta dishes one with yellow tomato sauce and the other with classic tomato sauce. Then indulge in a tasting selection of Orange mustard, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil. These tastings are paired with a locally sourced wine for the full Tuscan experience.

Cross Ponte Vecchio into the Oltrarno

On your way to the next stop, cross the iconic Ponte Vecchio. This bridge is the oldest in Florence and famous for the quirky shops built right into its sides.

Enjoy a traditional Florentine steak dinner

Then it’s time for the star of the night. Sit down for a generous serving of Florentine steak, crisp on the outside and ruby-red inside, just as locals prefer. With roasted potatoes and a bold Tuscan red wine, this is a true Florentine feast.

Try award-winning gelato in Santo Spirito

Your final stop is a beloved gelateria in the artsy Santo Spirito neighborhood. Savor a scoop (or two) of the city’s creamiest gelato as your guide shares final tips for exploring Florence’s food scene on your own.

Your tour finishes in central Florence

Once dessert wraps up, the guided portion concludes. You’re free to linger in the lively square, enjoy another drink, or make your way back across the river at your own pace.

Great evening with wonderful food. Our delightful guide, Victoria, was knowledgeable, interesting, & fun. Four food stops that were all excellent. Good wines too! Unique stops that we would not have found on our own. Loved the unusual gelato flavors. Small group size enhanced the experience. Highly recommend! Thank you Victoria!

Sherin was a great guide with our wuine window to gelato food tour. Although there was very heavy foot traffic, she was careful to make sure we all stayed together. She went above and beyond in helping a couple members of our family secure a taxi for a special need. Food amd wine was delicious!

Lori was fantastic as our guide, and helped us enjoy one of the highlights of our trip. I have done a few of these food tours in Italy, and they are always great in all honestly, but Lori has an infectious personality which it is difficult not to like, and her knowledge of both the food and it's origins made this a little different, and so memorable. She even got my sense of humor, which not everyone does, so the night ended up being a good laugh, as well as educational. The food was outstanding too, should mention that I suppose, with the pasta dishes being really impressive, though the star was the Florentine steak, which I thought was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. All in all I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to do something a little different. It is tremendous value, a fantastic way to spend an evening, and the company is just great. You will love it. Thank you Lori. See you again soon I hope!

FAQs

Can I bring my kids and do I have to pay for them?

Kids are welcome on our food tours, but we understand that sometimes young children won’t be interested in what’s offered. You won’t have to pay for children who are under 6 years old and won’t be eating the food. You're welcome to bring some food for them to enjoy. Otherwise, if they will be eating food at any of the stops, please choose the “Child” option when booking.

What if I have food allergies, intolerances or other requirements?

Please contact us in advance and we'll do our best to accommodate your needs.

How much wine do we actually get?

We promise at least 4 glasses, but in many places it is served by the carafe, which is the typical way in Italy.

What to bring?

This is a walking tour that includes stairs and uneven terrain, so make sure you wear comfortable shoes. Come hungry!

Where to meet?

Meet your guide in Piazza della Signoria. The exact meeting point will be clearly listed on your voucher after booking. Your tour will conclude near San Spirito.

Do the tasting stops on this tour ever change?

Stops and tastings on this tour are subject to change due to seasonal/holiday venue closures. As the places we frequent on this Florence Food Tour are local institutions and family-run businesses, they can close at any time with little notice. In this situation, your guide will take you to another nearby eatery and the exact dishes served may change. Rest assured, our local guides know plenty of fantastic options in the Santo Spirito district!

What if I have concerns about my mobility on this tour?

This is a gently paced walking tour with frequent stops, but the streets can be uneven and stairs may be involved. If you have any doubts about your mobility, we recommend you take a Wine Day in the Chianti Hills from Florence so we can better accommodate your needs.

Can I bring my pet with me?

Unfortunately no, pets aren’t allowed unless it’s a service animal with documentation.
