  • Corridoio Vasariano (Pass By)

    This was built by Vasari in five months to celebrate the marriage of Francesco de Medici and Joanna of Austria in 1565 and provides unique views of the city. Nearly a kilometre long, its purpose was to connect Palazzo Vecchio via the Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio with the new residence of the Medici dukes at Palazzo Pitti, in the form of a private covered passageway.

  • Palazzo Pitti

    The last residence of the Medici Family. The majestic Palazzo Pitti was built by the merchant Luca Pitti as an effective demonstration of his wealth and power to his rivals the Medici. In 1549, when the palace was bought by Eleanor of Toledo, wife of Cosimo I, its magnificence was increased and the beautiful Boboli Gardens were laid out behind it. It became the official seat of the Medici dynasty of grand dukes after Cosimo I moved here from Palazzo Vecchio.

Florence with Luigi

Published on Jan, 2025

Great tour with Luigi. He had great energy and showed us some lovely spots and hidden gems. He even made sure to stay around after to recommend good places for food and drink. You won’t be disappointed with this tour.

Excellent Tour

Published on Jul, 2024

Raffaello was a fantastic guide, providing a detailed and enlightening Historical Florentine experience. He is an art history professor as well to make it an even more enriched walking tour! Providing the details of the architecture, the artistic timelines, and religious influences all throughout the city and tying a lot that we have learned during our education to what we were seeing on the walk. I highly recommend him as a guide!

Great tour!

Published on Jul, 2024

Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable and was very easy to understand (we are english speaking and he was very fluent). He had lots if good info and also gave us a few fun city tips! Great tour!

Great orientation to Florence

Published on May, 2024

Francesco did an amazing job sharing his encyclopedic knowledge and understanding of Florence and its history. Very impressive and engaging.

Best Guide on our trip to Italy!

Published on Apr, 2024

Francesco was our guide on 21 April 2024 for Viator's Art and History Tour of Florence. He was the best guide we had on our 2 week trip to Italy with 4 couples. On this tour there were 2 couples which made it so nice because we could easily hear all the interesting things that Francesco had to say, and he let us set the pace more. Francesco is energetic, speaks superb English and fun to be with. We learned so much with Francesco, and we didn't want the tour to end! He told us he is a history school teacher, and I can imagine how much fun he makes learning for his students! Ask for Francesco if you book this tour.
