Florence · TOUR REVIEWS
A long weekend or a week, the problem is the same: too much Florence, one itinerary. The 15 below are the bookings that earn their day — priced, timed and honest about the queues — with the full catalogue underneath when you want to dig deeper.
Skip-the-line timed entry to Florence’s Uffizi Gallery. See Botticelli, Michelangelo, Da Vinci and more, with an English audio guide.
“Tcollecting the ticket was easy, the queues straightforward, the Uffizi gallery itself is unbelievable!”
Florence day trip to Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa, plus Chianti winery lunch and tasting. Guided history, free time, optional tower climb.
“The day was great! Our tour guide was absolutely amazing! He even helped me find my phone when it went missing! The tour is perfectly described on the Viator app as to what you will do for the day. Personally all in our group said if we did it again we wouldn’t go to Pisa and would have really wanted to stay longer in the other two towns. The wine tasting and lunch is an absolute must!!”
Timed entry ticket to Florence’s Accademia Gallery with priority access to Michelangelo’s David and a digital audio guide.
“Huge line waiting to get it and we popped in within 5 minutes of our arrival. It was well worth the advance ticketing for the skip the line!”
Skip the line to see Michelangelo’s David at Florence’s Accademia Gallery, with timed entry, self-paced access, and optional audio guide.
“I liked the freedom to see everything at my pace and also hear the story behind sculptures and paintings.”
A 2h 15m Florence walking tour focused on Medici storytelling, major squares, and Ponte Vecchio views, with English guides and ticket choices.
“We were with a cruise, and booked this tour on our own. Unfortunately, we had to get back to the ship and leave the tour early. Our guide, Glenda, was great and worked with us so we could end the tour at our meeting point to go back to our cruise.”
Try Leonardo da Vinci machine designs in Florence with timed entry, smartphone audio guide, and free Wi-Fi. Hands-on fun for families.
“Kids loved it. Something hands on was a great change after days of being told not to touch this or that. Was interesting as an adult”
2-hour Florence walking tour linking Medici power, the Duomo complex, Dante and Piazza della Signoria, ending near Uffizi, in English.
“Its was good learning about Florence from a local’s prospective. An enjoyable and insightful experience. I would recommend to friends and family.”
Skip Pisa’s ticket lines with a timed entry to the Leaning Tower and cathedral access in Piazza del Duomo. Climb at your pace.
“If you go all the way to Pisa you have to climb the tower as they really restrict the number of people that can go up in each day you seriously need to think about booking ahead. The views from the top are wonderful, however you need to be reasonably OK with heights. the cathedral is beautiful inside.”
Learn fresh pasta in Florence’s medieval tower, make 3 shapes, match 3 sauces, and eat with unlimited Tuscan wine for $21 in 3 hours.
“An absolutely fantastic experience and highly recommend it. Our chef Andrea shared great knowledge and made the experience fun. Would definitely do it again”
Florence day trip to Pisa, Siena, and San Gimignano with Chianti winery lunch and tasting. Guided sights, free time in each town.
“Our guide was excellent. Luca made sure to connect with everyone. I was interested in the art but also the history. Luca, was available to answer questions as we walked to the site. i would request him.”
From Florence, ride to Cinque Terre’s five villages by train or boat, with an optional cliffside hike and optional Pisa add-on.
“Our tour guide was Chris. Not only was Chris insanely informative but he was probably my favorite tour guide I have ever had. We had gone during the slower season in November so the boat ride was not a part of the tour due to the season, which means at some point I'll definitely have to go back. Brief rundown, meeting point was easy to locate and check in was a breeze. We then walked to where the bus was parked and on the way to the train station our tour guide (and the tour guide for the Pisa tour) informed us of the history of the areas we were…”
One 12-hour Tuscany day trip from Florence with Pisa, San Gimignano, Siena and Chianti, plus optional lunch, wine, and Leaning Tower tickets.
“Our guide Hillary was very knowledgable and provided excellent explanations of the places that we visited including their history and some curiosities as well as some recommendations of places to visit and traditional food to taste. The tour was very well organised and allow us to have a good insight into the region. Our bus driver Salvatore was also really nice and we appreciate his contribution to the success of the tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Firenze.”
Half-day Chianti tour from Florence with two winery visits, vineyard walks, and tastings of up to 7 wines plus Tuscan bites on a GT bus.
“Great experience! Our guide Constantino and driver Ricardo were both fantastic. Both wineries were a good experience and had delicious wines”
Small-group Chianti Classico tastings from Florence, two winery visits, wine and olive oil pairings, plus time to shop in the hills.
“Wonderful, very nice, wine is great, beautiful landscape, guide and driver very nice, bus arrived on time, sufficient time on every stop. Plenty of wine and cheese”
Tuscan farm class from Florence, make pizza or pasta and gelato, eat with Chianti in the hills, wood-oven cooking, recipes included.
“Beautiful setting at a Tuscan estate with a lovely view of the city of Florence. The event cooking team was both fun and professional. We made pizzas in a wood-fired oven and gelato, and had a chance to sample everyone's gelato while you were able to customize your pizza toppings to your taste. Lots of laughs, eating, and even learned a few new cooking techniques.”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
