Nowhere does food like Florence. Voted the best city in the world for local food, the Tuscan capital specialises in hearty meat dishes and full-bodied wines that charm the palates of all who visit. Our Florence Food Tour takes you on a culinary journey through the artisan district of Oltrarno to sample the best of Tuscan cuisine. With a curated menu, planned itinerary, and reserved spots at top local eateries, we take care of the details, so you can relax and savour Florentine cuisine, one delicious bite at a time.
Our tour focuses on the city’s “cucina povera” or “poor cuisine”. But don’t let the name put you off, there’s nothing poor about it. “Cucina povera” refers to the simplicity of the ingredients, all locally sourced and seasonal, to create delicious and filling dishes. After whetting your appetite with crispy schiacciata bread, cold meat and cheese platters, and light, fruity Chianti wine, you’ll be indulging in Florence’s local food culture in a local trattoria.
Your foodie guide will share all their expertise about the history and evolution of this traditional cuisine and introduce you to the most famous dishes in Florence, before finishing with a sweet treat at one of the city’s beloved gelaterie!
Perfect for foodies, travellers, and anyone looking for a unique experience, our Florence Food Tour is packed full of personal stories and insider recommendations. Book now. Spaces fill up fast!
