The ultimate Traditional Tuscan market experience combined with a private wine tasting
In Florence the local language is food and there is no better experience it than exploring the San Lorenzo Market and interacting with the families who have been working there for a century. There you will taste a selection of the Tuscany’s finest delicacies like artisanal cheese, cured meats, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, homemade spreads, mouth watering panini, wine and more. We will then head to one of the most historic wine shops in the city where they will guide us through a private wine tasting featuring two wines from their collection paired with mouth watering food. Then we end this moveable feast like all Italian’s do with a “digestivo” at our favorite bar followed by the city’s very best artisanal gelato. Along the way we will be visiting in many of the lesser known sights including many from the Medici family who once called this neighborhood home.
