Florence food tour was absolutely a must

Maria-Cristina was very personable, relaxed and really the best introduction to the regional foods of Florence. She took extra care to make us feel comfortable and even went out of her way to show our group more interesting facts and places to ponder. We HIGHLY recommend her.
