TOUR ITINERARY

Florence might be known as the birthplace of Renaissance art, but its regional cuisine is just as much of a claim to fame. On this tour, you’ll stroll the quaint Florentine streets with your local expert guide and enjoy iconic dishes and traditional Tuscan treats at locally loved restaurants.

Your tour begins in true Florentine style sipping on a glass of D.O.C.G Chianti wine or a negroni cocktail, with a selection of the finest crostini.

From an exclusive terrace, enjoy breathtaking views of Ponte Vecchio, while savoring the finest Tuscan cheese, cured meats, truffles, aged balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Decide which ham you prefer between Cinta Senese, Parma and San Daniele.

Next enjoy a sit down dinner starting with homemade tagliatelle with fresh truffles and pappardelle with wild boar.

After the perfect plate of pasta, indulge in cantucci con Vin Santo (almond cookies dipped in sweet wine); the ideal way to end your dinner and palate cleanser.

The tour concludes with you become an expert in gelato. Learn how to spot the real thing from the fake stuff at one of Florence’s oldest gelateria.

Additional food and wine tastings at all venues are permitted for those who wish to have extra.
