From here, travelers move through lively streets filled with history, culture, and architectural beauty that define Florence’s timeless character.
The journey continues toward San Lorenzo, a district closely linked to the powerful Medici family.

Customer Reviews
Aida was INCREDIBLE!!! We spent two weeks in Florence and Rome for our honeymoon and this walking tour was one of the absolute highlights. She was so knowledgeable and gave a full history lesson in addition to highlighting local sites. I’d recommend this to anyone traveling to Florence as a must-do!!
We did two tours with Aida in one day. Actually, we booked a morning tour, following which we immediately decided to book an evening tour. She is extremely knowledgeable about anything that has to do with the history and art of Florence and the whole of Italy. You simply ask the question- and the answer is there, she knows it all. The tours are done in excellent English, with proper stops for rest and refreshments. I can't recommend her highly enough for anyone who wants to dive a bit deeper into the history of this magical city. Thank you, Aida! We did two tours with Aida in one day.

Aida was absolutely fabulous! She was not only extremely knowledgeable but also a wonderfully funny storyteller, perfectly timing our breaks throughout the tour. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and learned so much about Florence and its rich history!
