Itinerary

1

Palazzo Medici Riccardi

Next, taste traditional handmade pici or other classic Tuscan pasta, all prepared with care in a top-ranking trattoria near Palazzo Medici Ricciardi. As you savor each bite, take in the grandeur of this Renaissance palace, once home to one of Florence’s most influential families. The surrounding streets, filled with history and character, add to the experience, allowing you to enjoy authentic local flavors while immersing yourself in the elegance and vibrant atmosphere of the city’s historic heart.

You cannot leave Florence without trying the traditional Pappa al Pomodoro and Ribollita. Both dishes come from the farmers’ tradition and have been prepared the same way for generations. Enjoy them in one of the city’s most typical and lively trattorias near Piazza Santa Trinità, where the charm of the square—with its elegant Renaissance architecture and bustling atmosphere—makes every bite even more memorable.

3

Ponte Santa Trinita

Finally, a sweet ending to our tour: depending on availability and the season, you’ll enjoy the best gelato in Florence or a traditional treat in a historic pastry shop, such as cantucci or other local specialties.
