Close-up Florence: Walking- and Gourmet-Tour

Have you ever wondered why Florence became the birthplace of the Renaissance?

Discover facts and secrets of over 2,000 years of Florentine history, from the city’s Roman origins to a 15th century palace, from the Ponte Vecchio, through the famous Uffizi courtyard, to the wonder of the architecture of Brunelleschi’s Dome which overlooks the Baptistery's golden “Gates of Paradise”. Have a close encounter with this fascinating city, understanding and appreciating the background and context, its place in history.

At the end of the day have a taste of traditional Florentine delights with THE GOURMET’STOUR. On our way through the city center we shall take gourmet pit stops in typical Florentine bars, shops and eateries. As well as a delight for our eyes, this little excursion, in which wine and typical Tuscan foods are the undisputed protagonists, will tickle our palates.

The assortment of traditional Florentine products, for example cheese and salami, will taste even better with a glass of fine Chianti wine in one of the numerous quaint Osterias. Not to forget the famous Vin Santo with the delicious almond cookies from Prato, and finally, a wonderful gelato made by a true professional with all the proper fresh ingredients.

Included in product price:

Guided tour and earphones for groups with more than 15 participants
Wine, cheese and other specialties tasting, “vin santo” with almond biscuits and ice cream

The gourmet tour was great, it could've lasted longer. We even bought some of the things we tasted on the tour for at home. Highly recommendable!!!

By all means a really great two-parts tour. We would recommend to book it for the beginning of your visit of Florence - you will have the rewards for that if you explore the city on your own.

It was a good combination, first the historical old town and then the culinary tour. Anytime again. Our guide was very competent and gave us a good insight into the political and culinary past of Florence. Unfortunately, the last shop had closed, so we missed the culmination about which our guide was very sorry, but couldn't find a solution due to the time.

The culinary tour was great, because we got to know really good local restaurants which we often visited. Also the city tour was good. The guides were both very competent and kind.

In February, I was in Florence. On both parts of the tour I was the only guest. That was really great and therefore very individual. The first part gives you a great overview and you can decide afterwards what you want to visit on your own. But the best part was the gourmet tour in the evening. Unfortunately, 1.5 hours are over in a flash. It would be great to extend this part of the tour. I would've loved to taste more delicious things.

The tour with Theresa was great. She had a competent answer to all questions. She has a very happy, friendly and funny character and is able to provide the information so that everyone paid attention until the end. The tour at the evening was average.
