Food was delicious and tried new things we wouldn’t have otherwise! The added information along the way was very interesting as well.

Kevin_N

Fun knowledgeable guide. Showed us places we wouldn't have checked out otherwise. Kept us away from typical tourist stops.

Paula_K

I have taken many tours, and many walking food tours, and this was among, if not the best tour I’ve taken. Dilara our guide was excellent, knowledgeable and so helpful. Not only was she knowledgeable about food, but about the city, it’s history, it’s art and architecture. It was so much more than “just” a food tour. But, make no mistake, the food was excellent. We went back on our own to revisit some of the spots on the tour which were all small businesses, selling excellent products. I highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was excellent - enthusiastic, interesting narrative, good humor, comfortable pacing, well organized. The food was very good and we are going back again to the cafes and shops she introduced us to. Well, well worth it!

Very knowledgeable and interesting tour guide. She was very thoughtful to the special needs of the group. Not only did she take us to great food venues, but she also provide explanation on the buildings, architecture and history.

Mark_H

Great tour, great guide, would highly recommend this tour specially if you trip to spend more than a day or two in Florence.

Meeting local venders who have much pride in their work. Several stops were hidden away Gems easily missed without the personable guide.

Miriam_N

We loved this walking and eating tour of the San Lorenzo neighborhood and the Mercato Centrale. Our tour guide Aurora was fun and knowledgeable. We did this tour early in our trip, and it provided a great background on Tuscan food that came in handy for the rest of our trip.

Kristin_B

Fabulous tour! We were two adults and two children, and everyone loved it. We loved visiting the central markets and the little shops along the way. Lunch was an unexpected surprise. We did not leave the tour hungry!

Veena_S

The tour guide didn’t seem that interested in touring. We have done other food tours and this didn’t even compare to those. We mostly rated bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. At sit in lunch we were given one small bowel of pasta and were told to share among 4 people. Lots of walking, only one bathroom stop, sit for 20 minutes with 10 minutes for bathroom.
