We had a wonderful time on our walking amd eating tour of Florence today. Our guide Stefano was excellent at describing both Florence and the food. Everything was delicious (well for 1 of us, the other was not a fan one the item notorious for being an acquired taste - but you cannot leave Florence without tasting it once so you might as well try it during a tour with so much else to enjoy). Definitely worth the time and money, especially early in a multi-day visit so you have Stefano's views on what to eat during the rest of your trip.

The food was delicious. Very delicious. But it was also Stefano’s insights and sweet nature that made this tour standout. Thank you for a great day!

Wow!!! Stepheno’s tour was absolutely, hands down the best food tour I’ve taken….and I’ve taken them across several US states, Canada and the Czech Republic. The depth of history, culture and truly delicious food was so wonderful. Stephano’s passion was such a delight. This tour was both a joy and highlight of our time in Florence.

Stephano was a great guide. The tripe sandwich was a little out of the box but my husband loved it and it was fun to try.

It was amazing to see taste and see what the locals eat! Our tour guide awesome. Besides the food she talked to us a little bit about the historical sights we went by.

We just finished our food tour with Stefano - and this was so much more than just a food tour. First of all- the food was unique. I was expecting something different but we were treated to fun and different foods at each stop. More importantly - Stefano shared the history and origin of the foods and how they fit into the culture. I sincerely felt how much he enjoyed his job and what he wanted us to experience on this excursion. I would highly recommend this tour and this guide.

Fabulous tour with Alice. Eat like a local and get a culinary guided tour of the city. Pick fresh produce from the market and have it freshly prepared ready to eat outside. Alice took us to very local places and we really enjoyed going where we wouldnt have necessarily gone to ourselves. Alice told us the history of the food we were eating/drinking and the people who prepared it for us. A fun and informative tour, highly recommend.

Stefano was wonderful and took us on a great food tour of Street Food of Florence. History paired with beautiful places to see in Florence and a wide variety of tasty treats. Highly recommended. Be sure to go and go hungry.

Alice was a fantastic guide. Took us to a food market serving authentic Tuscan meats, cheeses, and vegetables. Tried lampredottato which was tasty but it may not for everyone. Gave an informative tour around the neighborhood of Santa Croce. Very friendly host. Enjoyed it immensely and highly recommended for all foodies.

Absolutely amazing tour. Alice was our tour guide and she was astonishing, kind, and helpful. So knowledgeable about all things Florence and beyond, which included more than just food. Our tour took us to a market and had the most amazing fresh foods picked from the stands and prepared for us in the open air. Then we ate at a street cart, visited a panini shop for cocolli, and rounded out the tour with gelato! And some Chianti of course. No question was left unanswered and we had the best time. Worth every euro! And just to make it clear…Alice is the BEST!!
