About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Liz V0 contributionsFood walking tourWe thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Alice. It was great to mix with the locals in their markets and to see the fabulous produce from the nearby farms. The quality of everything was superb. We tasted delicious cured meats and even tried lamprodotto in a sandwich. Alice is an enthusiastic guide and ambassador for her city. We learned a lot and felt we had been introduced to a new aspect of Florence. We definitely recommend this tour.Written June 7, 2019

We had an incredible time walking through Florence with our guide, Alice! She is very knowledgeable, friendly, and it felt like we were just hanging out with a friend for the day. She took us through the Sant'Ambrogio market and nearby neighborhoods, showing us the sights and giving us a great sense of Florentine life and history. We tried so many new-to-us foods and everything was delicious ... come hungry and you will not be disappointed! Thank you!

Our guide, Gaia, was amazing. Our group of nine strangers soon became friends as she guided us through less travelled areas of Florence and treated us to some delicious food. We chose fresh peas and beans from the market, ate deep fried artichoke hearts, ribollita, peposo, pate, meatballs, chianti prepared for our little group. Then back to the market where one of the outdoor vendors prepared our previously chosen peas and beans, along with wine, delicious meats, olives and cheeses. Gaia explained how everything was prepared and how to enjoy each morsel! On to the wonderfully loud and animated street vendor for Lampredotto, we all compared notes on that delicacy and took a group pic. Then on to a somewhat covered and hidden alleyway for deep fried, sausage and truffle stuffed pizza dough!! Last, but not least, gelato. Gaia told us stories and showed us interesting sights as we walked, and you can feel the pride she feels for her city in every step!! It was a wonderful tour and we were sad to leave our new group of friends, but left with a memory of a lifetime! 1000% recommend!!

Going on a food tour with Alice and Streaty in Florence was such a wonderful experience! Alice was a FANTASTIC guide. She was so knowledgeable about the history of Florence, food, culture, and dynamics of the city's rich history. There was so much to share about this city and she really brought everything to life for us! The variety of food shared was incredible too - you do not leave hungry that is for sure! Each stop was more delicious than the last! Do wear walking shoes, as you cover lots of ground, but it is 100% worth every step as you get to see many areas tucked away from tourists and experience local food stops. Do be sure to do this tour when in Florence!

Our family had bought us this trip as a wedding anniversary present probably because we had bored them with tales of our previous Streaty Tour in Palermo. The tour did not disappoint thanks to the knowledge of Alice our superb guide who taught us so much about the local produce and the street food enjoyed by the locals in Florence. It is much more interesting hearing about this from someone who lives in the City and knows from personal experience where the tastiest snacks can be found.
We tried a number of small plates of meat and cheeses which were well lubricated with glasses of local red wine. A particular favourite of mine was wild boar which was delicious. Sadly, we were led astray by one of our American tour members (Joel, you know who you are!) who was rather to generous in pouring out the red wine measures. Our plans for the afternoon had to be changed to fit in a long siesta in our apartment!
Thank you Alice.

Thanks for sharing your funny story with us ..it's very easy to get a little too carried away with Florence's special wine :) we are honoured to have been chosen by you and your family for the second time. We'll see you again in Naples, Venice or Catania soon! A big hug from the Streaty team, especially from Alice.

This was one of our favorite experiences in Italy! We have six kids ranging in age from 8-17, and every person in our group loved it! Alice was an incredible guide, and effortlessly wove the history of Florence with the food and culture. She felt like a long lost friend, and it all felt so easy and natural! The whole experience is such a unique look into life as a local, and it made us feel so much more connected to the city. It is an experience worth every penny, and one that we will never forget! If you are on the fence about it—do it! I will be recommending this tour to every person I know that is planning a trip to Italy!

The Streaty Food Tour was the highlight of our trip to Florence! We wanted to learn about the city through its food and people. Alice, our guide, was engaging and knowledgeable. She grew up in Florence and took us to places that she grew up eating at. The food was authentic, local, and the opposite of tourist traps. I would've never known where or how to order these items without Alice and the tour. I learned so much about the culture of Florence, and I recommend a Streaty tour in any city they provide it.

My daughter and I absolutely loved the tour!
Alice is an excellent guide and it felt like she was just our friend from Florence sharing her favorite things about her city. One of my favorite things about this tour was how we started away from all the tourist spots in a residential area. It felt like we were seeing and experiencing the "real" Florence. It was exciting to see the residents of the city going about their day.
And of course the food was amazing! We loved everything we tasted and I particularly like hearing the history behind the traditional dishes like poposa and ribolla. My daughter who is 13 wasn't as excited about the history part but loved all the food she got to try. Her favorites were the salami in the market and the fried dough balls near Dante's church.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get to know Florence.

We thoroughly recommend Streaty’s Florence foodie tour. It was excellent! Stefano brilliantly guided us through the streets and market providing great local knowledge and insights about street food and beyond. Our family of six had a fabulous and delicious time! Great to have a small group and what felt like a truly authentic experience. Thank you!

Fabulous tour with Alice.
Eat like a local and get a culinary guided tour of the city.
Pick fresh produce from the market and have it freshly prepared ready to eat outside.
Alice took us to very local places and we really enjoyed going where we wouldnt have necessarily gone to ourselves.
Alice told us the history of the food we were eating/drinking and the people who prepared it for us.
A fun and informative tour, highly recommend.

Stephane was an engaged, enthusiastic guide through the saint ambrolio market and nearby streets ending with gelato.
More about the experience than learning about street food, but it was fun to taste.
Small group of 8 people made it perfect size for walking and hearing our guide
