Florence A Local Food Lover Tour
Overview
Stroll through Florence with an expert guide, visiting a local market, family-run eateries, and hidden gems that showcase Tuscan cuisine. Taste local specialties, from fresh-baked breads and cured meats to slow-cooked dishes perfected over generations.
Your adventure begins at a vibrant market, where you’ll sample cheeses, cured meats, and regional wines, immersing yourself in the city’s food culture. As we move through historic streets, we’ll stop at a trattoria for signature Tuscan dishes, each bite telling the story of the region’s gastronomic heritage. From comforting pastas to hearty flavors, you’ll experience the heart of Italian cuisine.
No Tuscan food journey would be complete without gelato. Your final stop is an artisanal gelateria, where you’ll learn about authentic Italian gelato and enjoy a sweet, creamy treat to end your culinary exploration.
*Gluten-free and vegetarian options available with advance notice. **Tastings vary based on seasonal availability.
