A lampredotto and tripe tasting walking tour through Firenze, Italy
— guided by a Florentine
food writer and journalist,
born and raised in this city.
Intrigued by the world
of tripe and lampredotto?
Then this is absolutely your tour.
While exploring the historic locations of Firenze's tripe trade, we stop at two traditional tripe sellers — one for the iconic lampredotto, and the other for another classic recipe. Both tastings, plus a glass of wine or a small bottle of water, are included.
I am a Florentine food writer and journalist, born and raised in Firenze, who has spent over thirty years studying tripe.
You don't just taste tripe — you understand it.
From the Duomo to the Oltrarno, this walk showcases Firenze's iconic landmarks alongside the corners only Florentines know — the places that seldom appear in tourist itineraries.
Every participant receives a complimentary booklet of their choice: "The Little Book of Lampredotto" or "The Firenze of the Florentines".
Is someone in your group a vegetarian? I’ll make sure they get an equally delicious substitution to the tripe tastings.
Ciao, my name is Indro. As a Florentine food writer and journalist who, believe it or not, has spent over thirty years studying tripe — and is a certified tour leader, of course — I walk you through Firenze as I tell you everything I know about the history of tripe in the city (and worldwide if you are curious).
Along the way, you get a full immersion in the tripe culture: the history of lampredotto, the centuries-old stalls that still serve it, and the everyday way of life of the Florentines.
Every participant receives a complimentary
copy of one of these booklets,
included in the tour price.
A 40-page English booklet
with the history of lampredotto,
new and vintage photographs
of Firenze's tripesellers,
and easy-to-replicate recipes.
A 48-page English booklet
that reveals how Florentines
think, behave, and see their own city
— a key to understanding the people
and the everyday local life.
The walk, the tastings,
and the booklets offer something
no other experience can:
a complete immersion into Firenze
and its tripe culture,
guided by an international expert
on the subject — and a Fiorentino,
born and raised.
Still curious what a worldwide tripe expert looks like?
