Florence: Small Group Guided Food Tour

Description

Start at Piazza della Signoria, a square with several Renaissance statues. Then walk to Via dei Neri and begin the day with an Italian-style aperitivo. Try Tuscan wine along with pappa al pomodoro, bruschetta, and cured meats in a cozy wine bar frequented by locals. Cross the Arno River on the Ponte Vecchio, known for its jewellery shops, and continue to the Oltrarno area. Enjoy a glass of local wine paired with fried ravioli, and you can buy a bottle to take home as a memento. End the day at a traditional trattoria with Ribollita soup followed by Bistecca alla Fiorentina, a well-known Tuscan steak. End the meal with Cantucci cookies dipped in Vin Santo, a local sweet wine.
