"What’s the big picture here? Craft Cocktail and Aperitivo Tour of Florence kicks off at a given meeting point in Piazza della Repubblica or via dei Tornabuoni. The custom tours are private or small group, and traverse the city on foot. Reservations are required, but you can book as late as 24 hours in advance. So, where exactly are we going to go? Private tours are customized to your preferences; say, a particular liquor or cocktail. Group tours offer a good overview of drinking and dining in Florence. You'll visit multiple cafés and bars, so expect to encounter crowds. How's the guide? Coral Sisk, the tour company founder, is a sommelier with a degree in Italian Literature and Language and a concentration in Food Studies. She's extraordinarily passionate and well versed in Florentine history, art, culture, and gastronomy. Anything you’ll be remembering weeks or months or years from now? The passion Sisk and her team of experts—a group of sommeliers, culinary professionals, and food historians—have for Florence's food and culture is remarkable. You'll forget neither the nerdy details they share, nor their enthusiasm. So: who is this best for? This tour is best for those interested in food and drink culture. Obviously it's not ideal for teetotalers or families with kids." - Erica Firpo
