wis

What a great educational, fun, and delicious way to spend a couple hours in Florence. We had this beautiful, knowledgeable guide, who found us right away at the meeting point and, for four hours, let us taste our way through the San Lorenzo Market, a local restaurant, street food, real gelato in controlled temperature containers, and even a pastry shop. We started with little “sliders” of Italian ham/cheese, then an olive oil/balsamic/truffle shop, and some more meat and cheese in the market. Then we had a special table reserved for the eight of us in a quaint little restaurant for pasta with meat sauce and a beef stew, then onto another sandwich vendor, and we completed with a stop for gelato and another stop for Florentine cake. All came with beverages, including wine, beer, soda, or water. However, one of the best parts was our guide, who is from Florence, walking us through the city giving us a tour of the historic highlights. We loved it, and you will too. Come hungry!
