Description

An Exclusive Tour Among Ancient Traditions and Authentic Flavors
Beging your amazing tour meeting with a private licensed tour guide in Florence for an original food and wine tour built around some city historical and traditional shops as well as San Lorenzo’s food market, where it is still possible to breathe and live an authentic Florentine food experience. The tour will include a sort of treasure hunt aimed to search the so-called “buchette del vino”, small arched windows where, long time ago, people could easily buy a glass or a flask of wine. You will have the occasion to learn about some ancient Florentine families who had ordered to carve them in the façades of their palaces.

Exclusive Tastings Between Art and Culture
All those “spots” of history, art and culture will be alternated with some special tastings: a glass of Chianti red wine with the typical Italian Bruschetta, a thick slice of bread seasoned with some drops of 100% Tuscan extra virgin olive oil, local salami (Lampredotto), ham and cheese, a take-away warm “Pappa al Pomodoro” or Ribollita soup and some typical Cantuccini biscuits to dip into Vin Santo sweet wine!

An Immersion in the Authentic Flavors of Florence
