This 3.5-hour walking tour takes place in Florence during sunset and focuses on tasting Tuscan specialties and wines while visiting historic wine windows. The tour begins in Piazza Santo Spirito with a Prosecco toast in one of Florence’s liveliest squares. Next, participants walk to a 12th-century wine cellar where they sample charcuterie paired with wine served through a historic wine window. The group then visits a local cheese shop to taste two types of Pecorino and Parmigiano cheeses. Afterward, the tour continues to another wine window to try bruschetta with stracciatella cheese and a glass of Tuscan wine, during which the guide explains the history of Florence’s wine windows. The next stop is a historic trattoria where a chef prepares fresh Gnudi pasta, served with Chianti Classico wine, and the guide provides information about this well-known wine’s production and status. The tour proceeds to a traditional fiaschetteria in the Oltrarno district, operating since the 1950s, where guests taste Tuscan soup, wild boar stew, and Super Tuscan wines served through a wine window. Here, the guide also demonstrates how to make a classic Negroni cocktail. The tour concludes with a short lesson on artisan gelato, followed by tasting two flavors. A local English-speaking guide leads the entire tour, sharing insights about Florence’s food and drink scene throughout the evening. This tour is operated by Eating Europe and includes all food and wine tastings mentioned, with options to accommodate dietary needs upon request.
