Not only will you get in touch with the real Florentines and you’ll be able to do your grocery in a market or in one of the many tiny grocery shops, but walk by the many craftmen workshops and discover the ancient trades of one time that are kept alive here.

The Oltrarno is also scattered with various typical trattorias where you will taste genuine meals at a good price and chat with the owners of the restaurant. At night, before going back home, you might stop for an aperitiv in one of the open bars of Piazza di Santo Spirito or Piazza di San Frediano or one of the cozy winebars in San Niccolò.
