Great Introduction to Florence - Laura provided a great experience. Not so much a guided tour, but rather an evening spent with a knowledgeable local that felt as authentic as the food and wine accompanying the experience.

Must book tour for foodies! - My wife and I booked the tour with our three kids, ages 14, 13, and 9. Our tour guide Erica was wonderful. Her knowledge and passion for the cuisine of Florence and Italy more generally truly came through. We loved the historical facts Erica dropped during the tour, especially the history of the origin of gelato. (I won't spoil that one. You have to take the tour to get the story there.) Highly recommend.

You will have a fabulous time with Erica leading the tour - We are a family of 6, a mix of 70-somethings and 2 teenagers. We all had a great time! The tour is well-crafted to not stuff your stomach silly or make you eat weird animal parts. The real highlight is Erica, the guide. She made it a point to get to know all the participants and accommodated a vegetarian traveler at each stop. Erica also shared a bunch of fun tidbits about Florence as well as food knowledge that I still remember!

Erica Is The Best Guide! - Erica was a fantastic guide taking us through our Florence food tour! We purposefully chose to do a tour away from the touristy section of town and we were not disappointed! Every dish was delicious and Erica told great stories and details to enhance the experience! We were all very happily full and content with food and wine after the tour. Highly recommend the experience and Erica!
