Florence Central Market Food & Wine Tour with Eating Europe
Overview
Our Florence Market Food Tour takes you on a culinary journey at the San Lorenzo Market, the heart of Tuscan food traditions. Here you’ll enjoy tasty local cheeses, mouthwatering cured meats, fresh olive oil, a proper Italian coffee, traditional Lampredotto sandwich, aged balsamic vinegar and much more.
Once we’ve eaten our way through the market, we’ll pop over to one of Florence’s oldest wine shops for a private wine tasting and food pairing. End the tour just like a true Italian would finish their meal: with sweetness! After learning how to enjoy your drinks like an Italian, savor an authentic gelato and learn how to differentiate it from the fake stuff!
