We had an amazing market tour of the Sant'Ambrogio market and the surrounding area with Alice. She lives in the neighborhood and is a true local, and she took the time to explain the history of the area, current challenges, and of course all of the amazing street food (who knew lampredotto was so delicious? only all of Florence). It lived up to everything we expect with a Streaty tour, and we highly recommend this tour when you are in Florence!
What an amazing experience! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable — the perfect mix of humor, history, and passion for local food. You can tell this team really knows their stuff. Every stop felt authentic and full of character — from the hidden gems to the lively markets. Booking was super easy, and the staff were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We came from Canada, and our (University of Toronto) group was absolutely blown away by how smoothly everything went. If you love good food, local stories, and a fun, relaxed vibe — this is the tour to do in Florence. Come hungry and ready to be surprised! 🍷🍦🇮🇹
We did the street food tour in Florence. Alice was fantastic and shared a lot of local spots and flavours with us. We learnt a lot about the history behind each dish and about the vendors too. The dishes we tried were very authentic and Alice also gave us tips on what to look out for in regards to what is local and what is touristy when we eat at other restaurants in the region. It was our first food tour and we adored it. Small group size but lots of treats and fun. Would 100% recommend and would love to do more of these tours in the future!
We loved our Streatynfpod tour through Florence! Alice was an amazing guide! Not only did she give us all of the history on the region’s delicious food but she was fluent in art history and everything Florence! We tried delicious food all over the city that we would have never tried on our own and our stop at the market was our favorite! If you want the “non-tourist” food tour, this is it! I highly recommend!
This tour was amazing! I recommend it to anyone wanting to experience traditional Florentine dishes. We were brought to Sant’Ambrogio Market, which is a hidden gem of Florence, and ate the most delicious food! We were also brought to a couple other places that I will definitely be returning to! Our tour guide, Alice, was super knowledgeable, fun, and really made the tour a wonderful experience! Overall, this was one of my favorite tours I’ve done in Florence!
