What to expect

Discover Florence through its hidden wine tradition with an evening walking tour through the Oltrarno, focused on one of the city’s most charming traditions — tasting wine from the historic buchette del vino (wine windows). Starting from Piazza della Repubblica, stroll through Florence’s secret corners and top photo spots like the Loggia del Porcellino and Piazza del Limbo. Follow the Vasari Corridor’s path, hear Medici legends, and cross Ponte Vecchio into the heart of the Oltrarno. There, you’ll find recently restored wine windows once used by noble families to sell wine directly to locals. Sip a glass of Tuscan wine served just as it was centuries ago, while soaking in the city’s authentic atmosphere — a perfect blend of history, flavour, and tradition.
