Back in October we took a cooking tour and class with Isak (with assistance from Carmella) and it was great. It exceeded all expectations. The walking tour of the market was very informative and fun. Isak did a good job of keeping everyone engaged and during the class you were able to participate as much or as little as you wanted. The food was delicious and the kitchen was great - as was the view. It was a fun and enjoyable day from beginning to end. We could not recommend it enough.

Visited some great locations & learned so much about the food, traditions, coffee, wine and of course, gelato- all while walking around the beautiful city of Florence! Matteo is so nice, fun and knowledgeable- great spending a few hours learning from him!

Fantastic walking eating and drinking tour with Omar. He is extremely knowledgeable about food, cheese, wine and took our group of four to some really cool local and off the beat places and ended up at a great steakhouse where we watched the chef butcher, prep and cook a huge slab of steak which was delicious. Highly recommend.
