This 2, 5 hours walking tour includes the visit of the amazing downtown of Florence and San Lorenzo fresh market: strolling through the market stalls you will learn loads of precious information, suggestions and recommendations regarding the food traditions in Tuscany, all your senses will be overwhelmed by the colours and the flavors, even the market noise will be a pleasant sound. This is not just a street food tour, we will also illustrate the arts of the city, share history, stories and anecdotes, while passing before the famous Santa Maria del Fiore CATHEDRAL, its impressive Battistero and astonishing DOME.
Before end the tour in PONTE VECCHIO there will be time to taste a simple, tasty and traditional SCHIACCIATA that is a crisp and chewy Italian bread, made with a basic mixture of flour, yeast, olive oil, water, and salt filled with cured tuscan meat.
Last BUT not least here comes a refreshing ice-cream.

My husband and I really enjoyed tasting the olive oils, balsamic vinegars, truffles, pastas, sandwich and gelato. It was a thorough and well rounded tour.

Luca is a local— born and raised — and really understands the culture and food of Rome. We truly enjoyed the walk and food tasting with him. We’ve been referencing the knowledge we acquired from his tour since! Sign up and enjoy!

We lucked out and were the only two ion the tour, which was nice. Our guide Serene was very nice. The tour i felt spent a lot of time in the Central Market, which at first, we really enjoyed until the end. It felt like we saw more of the Central Market than anywhere else. Outside the market we only stopped at two spots- sandwich ( which was good) and then ended with gelato. I would have liked to cross the Ponte Vecchio to explore some history and tastings there as well. I thought i read you ended at the bridge below to a good picture? Not sure, but enjoyed it being just us two and the food and merchants we met were nice. Would have enjoyed same amount of time in Central market just more variety afterwards.

Was a great event. Tour guide Gabriel was very knowledgeable. Would recommend more locations that you can sit down at. It was a lot of standing.
