Product details
Savor Florence’s iconic flavors at San Lorenzo Market—truffle oils, Lampredotto, Tuscan wines, meet local families, and indulge in true gelato on this immersive food tour.
Our Florence Market Food Tour takes you on a culinary journey at the San Lorenzo Market, the heart of Tuscan food traditions. Here you’ll enjoy tasty local cheeses, mouthwatering cured meats, fresh olive oil, a proper Italian coffee, traditional Lampredotto sandwich, aged balsamic vinegar and much more.
Once we’ve eaten our way through the market, we’ll pop over to one of Florence’s oldest wine shops for a private wine tasting and food pairing.

After learning how to enjoy your drinks like an Italian, savor an authentic gelato and learn how to differentiate it from the fake stuff!
