Italy · FLORENCE TOURS
Florence rewards a plan made two weeks early. These 15 handle the two galleries that sell out, the hills behind the city and the food that most visitors walk straight past, each with its price and its length.
Skip-the-line timed entry to Florence’s Uffizi with an included English digital audio guide and time to explore Renaissance masterworks at your pace.
“Beautiful place, incredible history. Mind you - a lot of stairs 😅”
Tuscany day trip from Florence with guided Siena, Chianti winery lunch and wine tasting, San Gimignano towers, and Pisa with optional Leaning Tower climb.
“Great experience all around and beautifully coordinated. Very unique. Manolo was the best tour guide ever!”
Skip the ticket line with reserved, timed entry to Florence’s Accademia Gallery, including a digital audio guide for Michelangelo’s David.
“To see not only the statue of David but other historic and beautiful world of art”
Skip the line to see Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia Gallery, explore all museum sections at your pace, with optional audio.
“Easy to get to office. We arrived a bit early and they were able to get us in to slightly earlier viewing than originally planned. Great customer service!”
Florence Renaissance and Medici tales walking tour with a storyteller. See San Lorenzo, Medici palazzo, key piazzas, and Ponte Vecchio.
“Full of color, art, and history. Highly recommend Michele as a skilled storyteller and art historian.”
Hands-on Leonardo da Vinci machines in central Florence, with a free audio guide, Wi-Fi, and interactive workshops for all ages.
“The kids LOVED the interactive experience of touching and playing with all the inventions.”
A budget-friendly 2-hour walking tour that connects Florence’s biggest sites to Medici power, Renaissance stories, and a few surprising stops.
“This was such an entertaining and informative tour. To learn about the Medici is to learn about Florence n a way that moves beyond museums and churches. Deborah mixed humor with information and taught me things I never knew, despite having visited Florence several times. I highly recommend this, especially as a start to your time in the city. Tip well; it’s worthy of at least €20/person.”
Learn fresh pasta in a 1200s Florence tower, make 3 types, eat what you cook, and enjoy unlimited Tuscan wine for $21.
“Such fun, the best thing we did as a family and skill for future. I took my two teenage daughters they loved it, the atmosphere was great shouting “yes chef” having a laugh. Loving the wine. Highly recommended and so cheap too!”
Florence to Siena, Pisa and San Gimignano in one day with Chianti lunch, wine tasting, and guided time in key squares.
“I would recommend visiting San Gimignano first..we were too tired to enjoy and walk through the beautiful city. Our guide Alesseo was sweet and informative and our driver Michel was excellent!”
Cinque Terre day trip from Florence with optional cliff-edge hike, scenic boat views, and possible Pisa add-on for one packed day.
“The guides were amazing! Claudia and Chris were so much fun and had a wealth of knowledge! Their English language was exceptional! I have done a few tours through Europe and loved these guys the most! I felt like we made new friends.”
A full day loop through Pisa, San Gimignano, Siena, and Chianti with optional Pisa tickets, a Siena guide, and wine-lunch.
“I enjoyed every moment of this tour. Barbara is an amazing guide and told us everything about the places we visited and where to find the best gelato and coffee (and bathrooms😅). For the Siena tour, Chiara was an amazing tour guide and the lunch at Poggio Ai Laghi was paired with some of the best wines I tasted. The whole tour was an amazing experience and I recommend it to anyone who wants to see the highlights, just so they can visit those places by themselves again and fully enjoy everything about Toscana.”
Half-day Chianti Hills tour from Florence with two wineries, vineyard walks, and tastings with Tuscan cheese, olive oil, balsamic.
“We loved the tour, especially the second stop with Winestein. The transportation was great and the day was very fun!”
Small-group Chianti Classico tastings from Florence, with two winery visits, vineyard tours, and food pairings, plus scenic hillside drives.
“Leonardo was a wonderful guide, so knowledgeable and so kind, the wineries were exquisite! Would highly recommend this tour!”
Skip-the-line Accademia Gallery entry for Michelangelo’s David, plus a multilingual audio app and bonus Tuscan tastings in Florence.
“I have wanted to see the David my entire life and was not disappointed. This gallery is a little smaller than the Uffizi but has some great works of art. The skip the line tickets are a huge help if you don't want to stand in line long!”
Florence farm class makes pizza, fresh pasta, and gelato with a wood-fired oven, Chianti tastings, and sweeping Tuscan hill views. Recipes included.
“15 out of 10 experience. Luca, Chris and Erika we're fantastic and know how to keep everyone engaged while showing you how to make delicious food. We opted for the pasta class which included making three different pastas with different sauces and homemade gelato. We were a group of 6 ranging in ages from 28 - 67 and a range of cooking skills. My mother has been making homemade pasta her whole life and even she learned some new skills! It was educational, delicious and fun. We all had the best time - it was one of the top highlights from our trip to Florence over the holidays. P.S. Walkabout…”
Every kind of day out in the country, and the best of each.
