Amazing tour of all the important sights in Florence especially Piazzale Michelangelo. We were a group with young children and senior citizens and it was easier to go round and enjoy in a short period of time.
Hey! I didn’t appreciate...
iqra201, Sep 2023
Hey! I didn’t appreciate how in the rain with my two kids, I’m asking the tour guide, are you part of the tour, the guy states maybe, it depends. There was a lack of connection. You want one to feel connected to the city, and that is not how you approach it. Finished in 40 minutes.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Dear customer, we're sorry to read that we couldn't make you feel connected to the city. We hoped to have thought of everything, including the rain, which, from late August, is a pleasant companion, especially for those visiting the city as it brings freshness to the air and the sky offers wonderful colors. Our electric golf carts are all equipped with full rain protection, and they are very popular even in winter. We regret that you didn't enjoy the weather conditions, but we believe we have provided everything necessary to overcome them. Our driver ended the tour early, certainly with your agreement, to accommodate your discomfort with the rain and not to keep you engaged in an activity you weren't fully enjoying. Best regards, ACCORD Team.
Nice tour
Darlene_G, Aug 2023
Carlo and his little dog bruny were a delight. Very entertaining and informative tour. We liked that it was just 1.5 hours .....that was long enough to learn key highlights!!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Dear Darlen, you made us, Carlo and little Bruny happy with this review! Thank you for sharing your opinion about the experience! This 1,5 hour tour is so long due to the amazing climb up to the Piazzale Michelangelo which is not so close to the downtown but I think that's the best way to end up a city tour. The road to the Piazzale Michelangelo and the fabulous view from the terrace are well worth it! We truly hope you'll choose us once again, we'll delice you with another special visit of Florence. Kind regard ACCORD Team
Do it!! Definitely worth it!
ORLA_B, Aug 2023
Time is flexible in Italy and meeting up with the drivers can be stressful if they’re not there at the scheduled time…however, this trip was fantastic once we got going! It’s such a great way to see a lot and cover a lot of ground in a short time…also, the breeze on the open-air golf cart is fab!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Dear Guest, we apologize if our driver arrived a few minutes late; time should not be flexible and appointments must be honored! However, we're glad you enjoyed the tour so much! Indeed, what you're saying is the essence of this experience, providing a way to see as many points of interest as possible comfortably seated and transported through the narrow streets of Florence. Additionally, the audio guides and our drivers manage to provide you with a wealth of both artistic and folkloric information. We hope to have you with us again very soon! Kind regards ACCORD Team.
Great way to see all of Florfence
Claudine_C, Jul 2023
Loved the tour and our guide Simo was fabulous! A really terrific way to obtain a wonderful overview of Florence. Great for avoiding the crowds.
Awful- do not book!!
Steven_G, Jun 2023
This tour should have had several stops with information about each area. However, when we got to the meeting place and we’re waiting there was a man (coordinator) with two dogs telling everyone they were wrong about the tour they purchased. He got people into golf carts and sent us off. The tour started at stop #6! Why? Should have been 10-12 points of interest we only saw 6? We purchased this tour because we wanted to see the main sights of Florence before venturing on our own. We asked our driver for the name of a store where we could purchase jewelry. Unbeknown to us he took us to a store where we “got a discount” if we mentioned the drivers name! He dropped us off at the store! Said he would return to pick us up- we called and he said he was too busy! We were left at Santa Croce and needed to find our way back!! We did not want to be dropped off!! He did not explain and did not ask us!! The driver spent most of the trip texting on his phone while driving! Awful!! I do not recommend this particular tour at all and would NOT recommend the company Viator partnered with!
Exciting golf cart tour of Florence
Sharon_M, Jun 2023
Carlo was a fantastic guide. He was enthusiastic and funny, taking us on a journey through the streets of Florence and in the hills for a panoramic view of the city. I would highly recommend Carlo!
Wonderful
Lisbeth_B, May 2023
Our tour guide, Simo Johnny, was amazing. Simo is very knowledgeable, accommodating and very kind. I recommend this tour for all ages and it is a must when traveling with older adults. Thank you Simo!

Good way to start our time in Florence. Was grateful to make it up to Michelangelo Piazza. That was the highlight of the tour.
Florence by golf buggy

Great first impression of Florence!
Angela_S, Feb 2023
Carlo made sure we felt taken care of on our trip. This was a great way to quickly get a sense of the city- especially as we have one person with mobility issues. Fun!
Response from Host, Feb 2023
Dear Angela, thank you so much for your kind words! We will be sure to tell Carlo how much you enjoyed your time with him visiting many landmarks of Florence. If you ever want to come back to Florence, we hope that you'll choose our services again. Best regards, ACCORD Team

Our guide was so fun he knew all the history of Florence, took us to some great locations. The sun set was spectacular! He even let us off at an amazing location for dinner.
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Hi Lynn, thank you for leaving your review! It will be very helpful to other people to make the choice of booking this tour which is proudly our pearl! We are glad you enjoyed your time with our guide and in our beautiful monuments. We hope you will come to visit our wonderful city again soon! Kind regards ACCORD Team
Disappointed in lack of tour
Linda_B, Oct 2022
Was at the meeting point early. Nobody showed up. Apparently some streets were blocked because of a marathon. I was not notified until later and could not reschedule. Asked for a refund but am doubtful as they have not replied.
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Hi Linda, thank you for leaving a review, it will surely be useful to us in order to grow and improve our services. We examined your situation, and we are willing to refund your tour. Our driver tried his best to arrive in time for the tour, but the marathon made it impossible, and we weren't able to reach you in time. However, since you are going to receive a refund, we would like to ask you if you could change your review and give us a higher rating. We trust that you can understand that it was an unpredictable situation for us as well and that we are trying our best to make the situation better. This can nonetheless be a nice excuse to come back to Florence and book another tour with us, hopefully on a day where there are no sports events planned.  Kind regards, ACCORD Team
AWSOME

Rubbish!
Adam_B, Jul 2022
Was rubbish. Tour guides terrible. Spent more time chatting on mobile or sleazing over women than helping us understand Florence.
Not as booked
Angela_H, Jun 2022
Little confused, not the buggy as pictured (ok) not an English speaking guide and didn't want to lusten to a recording , our trip inky lasted 1hr 40 mins of which 15 mins were taken up by photo stops which weren't always wanted ir necessary, we had no map and the commentary started at number 7 ?? , where was 1-6 , very nice chap and did go out of town but not what I was expecting at all
Response from Host, Jun 2022
Dear Angela, thank you for your review. Your opinion is always very important. The numbers 1 to 7 refer to some monuments which sadly have some limitations. Unfortunately the paper map was not included in the service, nevertheless we apologise if you did not like the service. The tour guide is only provided for private tours, on regular tours we always use recorded audioguide. We hope to see you again in the future for new experiences! Kind regards Team Accord

Brian_C, May 2022
Tour was not overly informative and a little disappointing. Best part was the view from piazza Michelangelo.
Response from Host, Jun 2022
Dear Brian, thank you for your review. Your opinion is always very important. We regret you did not fully appreciate our tour. Our golf cart’s tour generally has very good rating because of the surface covered and the quantity and quality of information participates receive. We are sorry hear you did not get enough. However we are happy that you loved the view from Piazzale Michelangelo! Kind regards ACCORD Team
Don't miss this tour
Carol_L, May 2022
Great way to see the city- i was our first full day in Florence and it gave us a good layout of the city and ideas of what we wanted to go back and see again. Simon was a great guide and a great photographer.

Perfect Florence Tour for Two
Mirna_H, May 2022
Simone is the perfect tour guide. Very knowledgeable about his city’s history. Took us through wonderful sites and was patient when we wanted to take many pictures. All the cute girls in town know him and he speaks perfect English.
