Food in Florence! - Marco did an excellent job touring us around tasting incredible food - great wine - and yummy gelato! We learned a lot about the history of Florence - it was a great introduction to Florence and walking around was easy and fun to see the different stores and cafes along the way. Excellent job Marco!

A walk amongst friends - Giulia was our host and she did not disappoint! It was just my wife and I so that was real special. She showed us around pointing out history and things we may want to see or do. Every stop was timely and the experience both personal and welcoming. We really enjoyed all the food, wine and overall experience that Giuliano provided. It was like spending the afternoon with a friend. We recommend this tour and with Giulia if you can. Abe and Lori

Exceeded our expectations! - This tour was truly exceptional; we would gladly give it a rating higher than five stars if we could. We approached the tour with open minds and were thoroughly delighted by the experience. Our guide, Gennaro, had a remarkable ability to anticipate our preferences, blending local cuisine, historical insights, and engaging conversation. He was also attentive to our dietary requests (Vegetarian and Vegan), and every item we were served was delicious. Upon arriving in Florence, we were eager to avoid the typical tourist areas, but didn't know where to begin. Thankfully, Gennaro expertly guided us to hidden gems and shared interesting historical details. By the tour's end, we felt we had not only gained a new appreciation for the city but also made a new friend. ( I must also mention that Gennaro is adorably handsome!)

Memorable food tour with Marie in Florence - We had an incredible food tour in Florence, made even more special by our guide, Marie. It turned out to be a private tour, just the three of us—my wife, our baby, and me—so we got a truly personalized experience. Marie was fantastic, not only knowledgeable about the food and history but also incredibly helpful with our baby, making the tour feel relaxed and enjoyable. It felt like we were with a friend exploring all that Florence had to offer. The incredible food and deep dive into Florence’s culture have ensured that we’ll be returning in the years to come.

The most fun tour I had my entire Italy trip! - Indulging in the Chianti, Tuscan soups, flavorful pasta dishes, and finishing up with cantucci & vin santo made my tour exciting and culturally relevant to my tour of Florence. I was so grateful for Sacha’s kindness, knowledge, and enthusiasm!!! She was so fantastic I would like to come back to Italy again and ask for her tour again. I would recommend her to anyone looking to enjoy food and laughter. :)

Great tour!!!!! - This was an excellent tour. Well worth the price. Our guide Genarro was very knowledgeable about the history of Florence as well as cluing us in on some of the secrets of Florence. To find out what those are, book the tour. We had a small group so there was a lot of good conversation and the food was excellent. Would highly suggest taking at the beginning of your stay as he made us aware of a lot of things we would’ve liked to have known on day 1. Where to eat, shop etc. I learned a lot and there was more food than one could finish by the end. Highly highly recommend and hopefully you can get Genarro as your guide too!

Great lens through which to view a city - What a great way to get an inside glimpse of the city. Gennaro was the best guide, we enjoyed our afternoon chatting and he had wonderful insight into Florence. The food we experienced was all local, unique, and very tasty. I highly recommend the experience.
