OVERVIEW

What you'll see.

Experience Florence like never before with a personalized private walking tour, where history, art, and culture come alive just for you.

The whole city, at your pace

Experience the best of Florence on a private walking tour designed to showcase the city's most iconic landmarks with the personalized attention of a dedicated guide. Florence's historic centre is compact, walkable and astonishingly dense with history, most of the Renaissance happened within a few hundred metres of the Duomo, which makes three hours on foot with a knowledgeable local the single best introduction the city offers.

From the Duomo to Ponte Vecchio

Stroll through the historic centre from Piazza del Duomo, where Brunelleschi's dome still dominates the skyline five centuries on, to the vibrant Piazza della Signoria, Florence's open-air stage of political and artistic treasures, the grand Palazzo Vecchio, the sculpture-filled loggia, and the replica of Michelangelo's David standing where the original once did. Walk across the picturesque Ponte Vecchio, lined with its historic goldsmiths' shops as it has been for centuries, take in an external view of the Uffizi Gallery, Vasari's masterpiece of Renaissance design, and continue toward the Basilica of Santa Croce, resting place of some of Italy's greatest names.

Your Florence, not a fixed script

Because the tour is private, the itinerary flexes around you. Linger where you're captivated, ask everything you're curious about, and let your guide add the hidden corners and local stories that bigger groups walk straight past. Art, history, architecture, or simply the pleasure of the streets, you set the emphasis, before or during the walk.

Good to know

The 3-hour tour includes a licensed professional private guide, with headsets provided for groups of five or more. Admission fees to attractions aren't included, this is a walking tour of the city itself, and it runs rain or shine, so dress for the day. Comfortable shoes are the only real requirement. Perfect as a first-day orientation that turns the rest of your stay into familiar territory, or as a deeper wander for returning visitors who want Florence beyond the postcards.
