Overview

The most romantic way to get to know Florence and see the city from a completely unusual perspective.
You will see the Republic Square, where the ancient Roman forum was located in ancient times & Orsanmichele church. We will reach the most beautiful squares in Italy - Piazza della Signoria. After passing through the Uffizi Gallery square, we will proceed to the pier, where a boat with a professional renaiolo will be waiting for us — the Florentine equivalent of the Venetian gondoliers.
During an unforgettable boat trip, you will see the elegant palaces, learn the stories of the Florentine aristocrats, sail under the famous Ponte Vecchio Bridge and the most elegant Ponte Santa Trinita, accompanied by a glass of refreshing prosecco.
After we will see the church of Santa Croce; the house where Michelangelo spent his childhood, medieval streets where Dante Alighieri once walked. The tour will end at the Cathedral Square, where the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore stands.
