Explore Florence’s historic wine windows on a small-group walk past Renaissance icons, sipping a glass served through a buchetta del vino before a guided tasting of three Tuscan wines with classic appetizers.
Florence’s famous Wine Windows are the star of this walk. With a local guide, you will track down these tiny stone hatches, learn how families used them to sell wine straight to the street, and spot the details that reveal an original buchetta del vino. You will even taste a glass served to you through one of them.
Along the route you’ll pass Renaissance highlights like Palazzo Medici Riccardi, the Cathedral and Baptistery in Piazza del Duomo, Piazza della Repubblica, Palazzo Strozzi, Piazza degli Antinori, and San Lorenzo. Your guide keeps the focus on the Wine Windows and the stories behind them while pointing out crests, carvings, and hidden corners you might miss on your own.
Your experience includes a 90 minute guided walk, one glass poured from a Wine Window, and a relaxed one hour tasting at Mercato Centrale with a local expert. Try three Tuscan wines paired with classic bites such as olives, prosciutto, and salami. Small group for a personal feel. The tour starts at a central meeting point and ends inside the market.
