Florence Food & Wine Tour: Tuscan Specialties & Wine Windows
Cross the Arno as the light turns gold and step into Oltrarno, the side of Florence locals kept mostly to themselves and follow the same aperitivo-to-dinner route locals have used for generations. Visit a centuries-old fiaschetteria for local wine, a centuries-old wine window, one of the few in Florence still poured through exactly as it was during outbreaks of plague. Then a neighbourhood deli run by a man who's crowned himself King of Cheese, doling out his best pecorino and Parmigiano. A proper Negroni lesson inside a historic wine shop, a slow-braised stew alongside a glass of classic Tuscan wine. Finish with gelato at the spot Florentines themselves voted their favourite. 6-7 stops and a small group, so nothing about the evening feels rushed.

Where this sits in Florence
Florence is about 8 min by road from Florence Peretola Airport. Compact enough to cross on foot in half an hour, and holding more Renaissance art than most countries. Busy in the middle and calm five minutes out; the Oltrarno side of the river is where people actually live and eat.
