Very fun tour. You go where the locals go! There was hardly anyone who spoke English around us. This is hard to do in Florance due to the all the colleges! The food to 10 tastings, not 10 stops. You will be overly full when you are on your last tasting ( yummy gelato!) The private tour gives you time to truly experience the food & ask questions. We also learned so much about the city! Our guide was so kind.

We did our tour with Giorgio and it was a fabulous experience! The food was amazing and we enjoyed learning more about Florence, as Giorgio is very knowledgeable on it’s history and culture. We did the six tasting option and it was the perfect amount of time and food for us!

Alessandra was our guide. Right away we felt as if she was a friend of ours. Easy going and checks on what you're looking for. We enjoyed her explanations of food, daily traditions, and how things connected to the history of Florence. We had a great time and we'll seek her out again next time we're there for sure.
