Tomas was great! He asked how adventurous we were and decided from there which foods to choose. Food was great! Tomas was easy to spend the day with and even gave us his number if we had questions. We called him for help ordering food in a country restaurant he recommended and the food was excellent!

Elizabett did a beautiful job. She was so thoughtful in taking us to places off the beaten path. The first bakery was our absolute favorite! She was very knowledgeable about the places she took us to and the things she showed us. And we adored her dog Jeff!

We cannot begin to express what a great tour we had with Elisabetta and Jeff. From the start she was warm and friendly. It is always a plus when travelling with children to start with the sweets which is exactly what we did with a super tasty bakery, followed by a Pastry Shop. We had heard about the Florence speciality lampredotto (tripe) and weren't sure if we’d like it, we told the kids it was meat and we all LOVED IT! During the tour, we heard about the history of Florence whilst we wandered from tasting to tasting and of course there was a stop for wine. No visit would be complete without gelato, which was a perfect way to end our tour. Passing palaces, markets and wine holes, we sampled some of the best street food and delights that this wonderful historic city has to offer. I wish we had more time with Elisabetta, she was great company!!! We will definitely reach out to her again next time we are in Florence!!!

Elizabetta was a fantastic food/tour guide. She took us to a variety of Florentine spots so we could experience the tastes of the locals. She also provided us with a lot of the history of Florence as we walked through the city. I would highly recommend the walking food tour and specifically Elizabetta-you won't be disappointed!
