A Tasty Adventure with CiaoFlorence :) - The food tour with CiaoFlorence was awesome! We got to taste local food and learn how cheese and meats are made. Our professional chef guide Matteo was super passionate and explained everything well. Plus, we got to try some amazing wines and finished off with the most amazing cheesecake gelato. It was a tasty adventure that I'll never forget! Huge thanks to CiaoFlorence for a great time!
