What to expect
Pickup from your Rome accommodation, then a comfortable drive north to Florence. Once there, your licensed guide meets you and leads a three-hour walking tour through the city's core—expect cobblestone streets, iconic landmarks, and plenty of stops to absorb the surroundings. You'll move at a conversational pace, with time to peek into neighbourhood shops and ask questions. Lunch and museum entry fees are on you, giving you freedom to choose what suits your appetite and budget. The guide's expertise keeps things contextual rather than rushed.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes; three hours on Florence's streets involves uneven surfaces. The vehicle is air-conditioned and wheelchair accessible. Bring water and a light layer—Florence's streets offer shade but the Tuscan sun is strong. Lunch venues and entrance fees aren't included, so budget accordingly.
