What a great tour. Martina was a very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun guide. Having the tour take place “On the Other side” took us away from the tourist centre of town, where we met and tasted the foods of generational family establishments. Wonderful food and atmosphere.

Excellent tour of the food of the Oltrarno area of Florence. We tried some things we wouldn’t have tried if left to our own devices (lamprodotto! 😳). Eli was fun and informative, fun tour!
