Florence Food Walking Tour with Florentine Steak and Tuscan Wine

I mainly chose this tour so I could try the steak, as a solo traveller I didn't think I would get to experience it, however, it turned out to be the best food tour I've ever done (and I do them in every city I visit!) Our guide was knowledgeable, authentic and friendly recommending all the best spots. I did it on my first night and highly suggest that you do the same as it's the perfect way to kick start your time in Florence. There was an abundance of great wine and tasty, traditional Florentine food. Trust me when I say the steak was to die for. I was lucky to have a great group of people on the tour, so it was a really fun night.

Francesco was a great guide! Knowledgeable, made the experience interactive and light while dropping so much information for us to truly learn about dishes, products and methods. He didn’t just explain what we were eating, but what went into the dishes and the wine pairings. Very informative to help us have the best food experience while in Florence.

This was an excellent food tour and such a fun way to experience Florence! Every tasting along the way was delicious, and we really enjoyed getting to try a variety of local foods and Tuscan flavors. The steak at the end was definitely a highlight—it was absolutely delicious and the perfect way to finish the tour. Everything was well planned, the food and wine were fantastic, and we had a wonderful time from start to finish. If you love food and want to experience some of the flavors Florence is known for, I would absolutely recommend this tour!

This was not quite what I expected. Usually on a food tour the information shared by the guide is on the food, or more frequently, about the area we are in, or about the people and the culture. This tour should be advertised as a wine tour. luckily I like wine, but I did not sign up for a wine tour, I was hoping to learn about Florence and the people, and the food. The food on the other hand, was AMAZING. For this reason I definitely recommend doing this tour. If nothing else, you end up eating things you otherwise might not have tried. And yes, the wine was really good too.
