What makes Florence Walking Tour with Wine and Food Tasting a unique experience ?
also known as the Florence Cathedral or Duomo di Firenze, is an iconic Gothic-style cathedral in Florence, Italy. Completed in 1436, it is renowned for its massive red-tiled dome, designed by Filippo Brunelleschi, a masterpiece of engineering and Renaissance architecture. The cathedral features intricate white, green, and pink marble exteriors, a stunning bell tower by Giotto, and breathtaking frescoes inside the dome by Vasari and Zuccari. It is one of Italy’s most celebrated landmarks and a symbol of Florence’s rich artistic and cultural heritage.
The Ponte Vecchio, meaning “Old Bridge,” is a historic and iconic bridge in Florence, Italy, spanning the Arno River. Dating back to Roman times, the current structure was rebuilt in 1345 and is famed for its unique design, featuring shops built along its edges. Originally home to butchers and tanners, the shops transitioned to goldsmiths and jewelers in the 16th century, a tradition that continues today. The bridge also features a hidden passage, the Vasari Corridor, which connects the Palazzo Vecchio to the Pitti Palace, allowing the Medici family to move privately. Its charming architecture and vibrant atmosphere make it a beloved symbol of Florence.
The Palazzo Vecchio is a historic fortress-palace in Florence, Italy, serving as the city’s town hall and a symbol of its political power. Built in 1299, it showcases a striking mix of Romanesque and Gothic architecture, with its imposing crenellated walls and a tall bell tower, the Torre di Arnolfo. Inside, it houses richly decorated rooms, frescoes by Giorgio Vasari, and the grand Salone dei Cinquecento, a monumental hall used for civic assemblies.
The palace was the residence of the powerful Medici family in the 16th century before they moved to the Pitti Palace. Today, it functions as a museum and a government building, offering visitors a glimpse into Florence’s illustrious history and art.
Founded in the 1920s as a rotisserie, it has preserved its rustic and welcoming atmosphere, reminiscent of the ancient 16th-century market galleries.
The restaurant specializes in traditional Tuscan and Florentine cuisine, offering dishes such as bistecca alla Fiorentina (Florentine steak), tripe, and pappardelle alla Chiantigiana. Its wine list features a selection of local labels, particularly from the Chianti region.
