A flavorful journey to Florence
Florence is a city that enchants at first glance. From the winding cobblestone streets and grand piazzas to the exquisite food and wine - here history and enjoyment of life meet in perfect balance. Whether you are here for the art, culture, or the fantastic food, a journey full of experiences awaits.
Explore the capital of the Renaissance
Your adventure begins in the heart of Tuscany, where Florence welcomes you with its unique charm. After checking into your hotel - perhaps a cozy boutique hotel with a view of the Arno River - it's time to set out on a discovery tour.
A walk through history
The city's historic center is like a living museum, where every street carries a story. Visit the impressive Duomo di Firenze with its iconic dome designed by Brunelleschi, and admire the bell tower that stretches towards the sky. Then continue to Ponte Vecchio, the famous bridge lined with shops that once sold jewels to the Medici family.
A visit to the Galleria degli Uffizi allows you to admire masterpieces by Botticelli and Leonardo da Vinci, while a walk through Oltrarno takes you to small workshops, hidden squares, and charming cafes.
As the evening approaches, few things beat a dinner at a traditional trattoria. Here you can enjoy bistecca alla fiorentina, a juicy Florentine steak, along with a glass of full-bodied Chianti.
An authentic street food tour in Florence
No trip to Florence is complete without diving into the city's amazing food culture. For a taste experience beyond the ordinary, a street food tour through Sant'Ambrogio, a district known for its genuine atmosphere and local delicacies, awaits.
Explore Florence's most genuine food market
Beyond the tourist trails lies the Sant'Ambrogio market, where the Florentines themselves shop for their ingredients. Here you get to follow an experienced food ambassador through the bustling aisles, discover unique places you might never have found on your own, and learn more about the deep roots of Italian food culture.
The market offers an explosion of scents and flavors - from freshly baked bread and artisan cheeses to fresh vegetables and juicy charcuterie.
Taste Florence's best street food
This tour is a delight for all senses, and you get to try some of the city's most beloved specialties:
✔ Schiacciata - the fluffy Tuscan focaccia, filled with high-quality ingredients like salami, pecorino, and truffle.
✔ Lampredotto - a classic Florentine street food dish, loved by the locals.
✔ Fried delicacies - cheese, charcuterie, and fresh products straight from the market.
✔ Wine and local specialties that give a taste of genuine Tuscany.
In addition to enjoying the delicious flavors, you also get to learn about traditions, ingredients, and cooking methods that make Italian cuisine one of the most loved in the world.
A magical ending by the Arno
After a day full of flavors and discoveries, a final evening in Florence awaits. Perhaps you choose to enjoy a pappardelle al cinghiale (wide pasta with wild boar ragu) at a restaurant overlooking the river, as the sun sets over Ponte Vecchio.
For those who want to take in the city's beauty from above, a short walk up to Piazzale Michelangelo awaits. Here you are treated to a panoramic view of the entire city - the Duomo's mighty dome, the red tile roofs, and the winding streets in a golden light.
Arrivederci, Firenze!
Before you leave Florence, you must of course indulge in one last taste experience - a genuine gelato. At a traditional gelateria, you can choose from flavors like Sicilian pistachio and dark chocolate from Modica, a perfect ending to a journey filled with culinary memories.
Whether you came here for the art, history, or food, you leave Florence with a longing to return. Here, where every street carries a story and every meal tells something about the traditions, there is always something new to discover.
Perhaps it's not a goodbye - but a see you again.
