Must See Florence With A Local: Private & Custom Walking Tour
Overview
Florence reveals itself gradually, and with a full day to explore, you'll have the freedom to experience far more than its headline attractions. From Renaissance masterpieces and Medici history to artisan workshops, local neighborhoods, food traditions, and spectacular viewpoints, this private experience is designed around what interests you most.
With eight hours and a local host by your side, you'll have the flexibility to slow down, linger where curiosity leads, and uncover layers of the city that many visitors miss. Whether you're interested in art, architecture, history, culture, food, or hidden gems, your host will create an experience that reflects your interests, pace, and travel style.
Before your experience, you'll receive an Online Personalization Form so your host can learn about your interests and create a route tailored specifically to you. Your itinerary remains flexible throughout the day, allowing for spontaneous discoveries and unexpected highlights along the way.
