Food tour with Mara!! - Mara is an excellent guide who knows the ins and out of the local eateries and wine shops. My 15 year old daughter and I loved our morning and afternoon with Mara and highly recommend her tour to anyone who wants to get a more in depth perspective of Tuscan food. Thanks Mara for a wonderful day!!

Five-Star Review! Mara was exceptional! - Our food tour was amazing! Mara was an exceptional host! Her knowledge of the city, enthusiasm, and passion for food and wine were phenomenal. From the very first stop, she delighted us with her expertise on wine. She was incredibly personable, and the walk through the city felt more like strolling with a friend as she zigzagged us through so many wonderful streets in Florence. Our second stop was a truly authentic Italian restaurant that we absolutely loved—it felt like stepping back in time. The sandwich stop was out of this world, and the pièce de résistance was the final stop for gelato, which was the perfect ending to a perfect afternoon. Thank you, Mara, for the most lovely experience!

Wonderful Food Tour in Florence - We had the best time with Gennaro as our guide. We enjoyed eating our way through Florence and learning more about the history and culture of this great city. Gennaro showed us around the city, pointing out the art on the street signs and even engaged in our tradition of playing games at meals. He even told us what to look for in Gelato stores and this was helpful as both my husband and daughter had gelato at least twice a day throughout our trip. We cannot say enough great things about the tour and about Gennaro.

Awesome food tour! - This was a fabulous food tour! Genaro, our tour guide, was very personable and took the time to get to know everyone. He was full of knowledge and we really learned along the way about Florentine food and history. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it so come hungry!

Eat your way though Florence! - My new goal is to take a food tour in whatever city I visit and this one did not disappoint! Our guide, Angela was very personable and informed. Our first stop was for wine. My husband got the chianti and I, the rosé. He doesn't drink so I got both. I call that winning! Both wines were very good. Our next stop was at Trattoria La Gratella. My husband got the Pici Pasta with black cabbage and bacon and loved it. I got the Gricia Pasta made with kale and garlic. This was the best Pasta dish I have ever had. I'm still thinking about it. The next stop was Toto where we had a tomato soup dish that had bread in it. It was very good. Then, we stopped for sandwiches at L'Officina deli Antellesi. They were so good! Our last stop was for gelato. Angela gave us tips on real gelato and how to spot the fakes. All the while we got to walk the streets of Florence and got info on the history and many photo ops. Our group was small and we got to know a very nice couple from New York. Take this tour!
