Tour description

Discover the magic of Florence with us

Join us on a fascinating tour through the heart of Florence with our certified local guides, true experts in Florentine history and culture. We'll begin in the enchanting Piazza Santa Maria Novella and, strolling through the picturesque alleys of the historic center, we'll reach the majestic Piazza Santa Croce, where the tour will conclude.

During the walk, you will admire the city's main treasures from the outside:
- The imposing Piazza del Duomo, with the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, Giotto's Bell Tower, the Baptistery, and Brunelleschi's iconic Dome.
- The monumental Piazza della Signoria, with the imposing Palazzo Vecchio, the elegant Loggia dei Lanzi, and the famous Uffizi Gallery.
- The unforgettable Ponte Vecchio, a romantic symbol of the city.

The tour ends in front of the Basilica of Santa Croce, in one of Florence's most evocative squares. Our guides will not only reveal the secrets of the great figures who shaped Florentine history, such as the Medici, Dante, Michelangelo, and Brunelleschi, but will also share anecdotes, legends, and curiosities you won't find in any guidebook.

And to complete the experience, you'll receive culinary tips, ideas for enjoying authentic pizza or gelato, and shopping advice in local artisan shops... just like a true Florentine!
