Our guide for this adventure was Luca. It was an amazing day. He added fun to our shopping experience and to our cooking class. He taught me how to make pasta and I don’t cook. The estate was beautiful, the food was delicious and Luca and lucia made the day a very memorable experience. Tour is highly recommended.

Super fun and great day of learning! Would totally rate this a 5 star if there weren’t so many people in our group. It was hard to see anything at the market, during cooking demonstrations, etc, which was disappointing. Also, there is a fair amount of walking which I don’t think was mentioned in the description of the day. We were fine but some with mobility issues had a bit of a challenge. Other than that, great day. Luca was a hoot and Lucia was wonderful. Would recommend!

Fantastic experience. Funny and skilled people, especially Lucca our guide. Delicious food and wine that could enjoy in fantastic Tuscan surroundings. We felt entertained and inspired. Good advice for both shopping in the market and for Florence in general.
