Join us to experience the rich history of Italian coffee. We will start with a visit to one of Florence's oldest coffee shops, where notable figures such as scholars, artists, and government officials once congregated to shape Italy as we know it today. Learn how coffee has been an integral part of Italian daily life for centuries and continues to hold a special place in the hearts of Italians.
Next, we will indulge in a modern version of coffee with a chocolate pairing at a renowned chocolatier, known for their delicate designs and expertise in chocolate flavor combinations.
As we stroll through the city center, we will make a stop at a family-owned boutique shop for a sweet treat invented just outside Florence, Cantucci, which makes the perfect snack for any time of day.
Finally, we will conclude our tour with a creamy and delicious gelato, where you can continue your coffee journey by trying an artisan coffee flavor or choosing from a selection of house-made flavors.

This tour was great with Christine. She was very knowledgeable about the culture and history of the sweets and coffee, as well as the locations about Florence. We are a family of five with a 20, 17 and 11 year old, enjoyable for all.
