Description

Explore the illustrious city of Florence, home of the Renaissance and an abundance of architecture and art. But Florence has a secret waiting to be discovered: its absurdly good gastronomical culture. Uncover this hidden culinary world with an enthusiastic guide and visit places that are known only to locals. Coffee is a rite of passage in Italy, so your tour begins with an authentic espresso at a classic café where locals meet to chat and the melody of the Italian language fills the air. Next, markets are where Italian cuisine comes to life. Journey through one of the most eye-catching markets in the entire country. Here's your chance to get up close with fruit vendors who have just harvested from nearby fields, feast on delectable cheeses, olives, and crostini, and watch as local butchers serve steak Florentine style. If you're looking for an unforgettable culinary experience in Florence, look no further than your next stop: a storied wine shop in the city's backstreets. Dive deep into their extensive collection and pour a glass to pair with some authentic bread soup and bruschetta. From there, you'll venture back out to the labyrinthine streets to discover a hidden gem that few visitors stumble upon. Try their coccoli—delicious fried bread balls made with prosciutto and cheese, and a celebration of Florentine culture in every bite. After tantalizing your taste buds with all of Florence's savory delights, it's time to indulge in some sweet treats. Step into a bustling bakery and watch as cantucci, almond biscotti-like cookies, are made right before your eyes. Then, once you've had a chance to sample this traditional Italian snack, make sure you leave some room for one last treat: gelato! See why Florence locals are so proud of their gelato as you wrap up your tour at one of the city’s top-rated shops. To fully immerse yourself in the magic of Florence, there's no better way than indulging in its remarkable cuisine. You'll uncover flavors that are truly extraordinary, meet passionate foodies, and forge a deep connection with this captivating city.
