Most tourists spend their time having bites at the touristy market of San Lorenzo. We take travelers to the real Florentine food market of Sant'Ambrogio, where locals have their daily shopping and fill up their bellies with some tasty and sometimes challenging bites!

Your guide will explain seasonal recipes and give you insights into locals' daily life.

You will have the chance to try food unavailable in restaurants and often not even mentioned in guidebooks. We offer whatever is local, seasonal and traditional. No tourist traps of any kind!
We offer a comprehensive cultural city experience. Along this tasty walking tour of Florence, travellers will also learn about history, traditions and local crafts.

All guides are local. They present their own city from the locals' perspectives without filters.
