Overview

Explore Florence’s scenic hills on a private electric golf cart tour, away from the busiest tourist areas and surrounded by peaceful roads, historic villas, olive groves.
Following the spirit of Galileo’s Florence, you will travel through elegant hillside areas such as Arcetri, Poggio Imperiale and the roads leading toward San Miniato al Monte and Piazzale Michelangelo.
The tour includes San Miniato al Monte and Piazzale Michelangelo, two of the most iconic panoramic landmarks in Florence. Due to local access regulations affecting the UNESCO historic area, the golf cart stops nearby and guests reach these viewpoints with a short scenic walk of about 100 meters.
Enjoy unforgettable views over the Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, the Arno River, Ponte Vecchio and Florence’s historic skyline, with perfect photo opportunities.
This 1.5-hour private experience combines comfort, culture, nature and panoramic views, offering a unique way to discover the quieter and more elegant side of Florence.
