Florence: Guided Food Tour + Tastings + All’Antico Vinaio Skip The Line Access

Additional Information & Description

Florence’s food takes the lead on this guided street food tour, with stops focused on local favorites rather than tourist spots. The route takes you into lesser-known parts of the city, making its food culture the starting point for exploring beyond the most familiar sights.

Follow the food through Florence’s streets

A live English-speaking guide leads the two-and-a-half-hour tour, connecting local dishes with the city’s history. Along the winding streets, you’ll visit family-run businesses and learn about Italian food preparation. The guided element gives context to the stops: you’re not just sampling what’s served, but hearing about the food and the city around it.

Five tastings and two glasses of Chianti

The tour includes five food tastings and two glasses of Chianti wine. Crostini with local spreads introduce savory flavors, while an Italian pastry brings a sweeter element to the selection. You’ll also try coccoli—fried dough often served with cheese or ham—and gelato from a historic gelateria. These stops bring together several distinct foods, from small savory bites to a frozen dessert, rather than concentrating the tasting experience on a single dish.

Skip the line at All’Antico Vinaio

Skip-the-line access to All’Antico Vinaio is included, taking you to one of Florence’s best-known sandwich shops. The schiacciata tasting features Tuscan cold cuts, cheese and vegetables. This filled bread adds a different texture and combination of ingredients to the tour’s smaller bites, with access to the shop forming part of the guided route.

Try additional traditional dishes

Lampredotto and trippa are available to purchase during the tour if you want to explore more traditional local dishes. These are optional purchases, separate from the included tastings, so you can decide during the visit whether to add them to what you try.

Arrival and ticket access

Arrive at via dei Tavolini 15red 15 minutes before the tour starts. The activity is wheelchair accessible. Tickets are delivered instantly and can be presented on a smartphone; the tour includes the live guide, so the scheduled visit follows a guided format rather than an independent food walk.
