You have certainly come to Florence to discover the history, legends, heroes, and even the lost souls of this beautiful city. To see the Ponte Vecchio—the Old Bridge—with your own eyes, to touch the nose of the Wild Boar statue in hopes of good luck. You are here to admire the Medici family’s Renaissance palace and to visit Piazza della Signoria, the city’s political heart, dominated by the Town Hall.
You may also be curious about the Church of Santa Croce, where Italy’s most famous figures rest, and the square where the historic football matches take place. The Uffizi Gallery awaits visitors with its secret corridor and world-renowned paintings by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Caravaggio, and Botticelli. The Cathedral’s dome, designed by Brunelleschi, is the symbol of the city, and its history is truly fascinating. Florence and Dante Alighieri’s name are inseparable—the poet and politician left an immense legacy not just to the city but to the entire nation.
During the sightseeing tour, I bring the city’s buildings to life, letting them tell their own stories—they have seen so much and are eager to speak. Join me in uncovering a world that guidebooks don’t write about!
Duration: 3, 4, or 6 hours
The tour covers Florence’s most important landmarks. It is ideal for those who want to get to know the city but have limited time or seek an introduction before exploring further on their own.
A full-day (6-hour) tour, possibly with a lunch break, is also available. This allows time to visit a selected museum, church, garden, or artisan workshop based on your interests.
If you would like a more in-depth experience of the city from multiple perspectives, this extended option is highly recommended.

We had the greatest time!
We had the greatest time touring Florence with Eszter! She was incredibly knowladgeable and asked us at the beginning what our interests were so that she cater the tour towards us. If we had more time we would have booked more days with her!
