Florence Food & Wine Tour Itinerary
Begin your Oltrarno food tour by getting acquainted with the building blocks of Tuscan cuisine with a typical aperitif. There’s no better place to do so than at a laid-back enoteca (wine bar) nestled into the quiet back streets of the neighborhood, where you’ll open your appetite with pecorino toscano cheese, a selection of bruschette, and focaccia, all paired with Chianti Classico. As you snack and sip, your guide will give you a primer on Tuscan wine and how to order and drink it like a pro.
