Nice trip, but A LOT of steps
Peter_H, Jun 2023
Enjoyed the tour but be prepared for a lot of steps! Especially liked Bardini Gardens. Ellena gave us a lot of art history:)
Surprise private tour
SuzanneBrackley, Jul 2022
Due to some no shows we had a private tour. Our guide was very informative and pleasant. It was a terribly hot day but we stopped for refreshments and took it easy. The Bardini Gardens were a highlight with magnificent views.
Medici comes to life for us

My husband and I took this tour in anticipation of bringing out readings about the Medici family to real life. Our guide was able to fill in the blanks for us. We learned about their lifestyle, their art collections and their importance in Florence overall. It was delightful to have such a knowledgeable guide who was so in synch with us.
Knowledgeable Tour Guide, even though VIATOR screwed up!
Robert_S, May 2022
We arrived at the meeting location. however Viator did not forward our reservation information to the tour service. Alissa did everything she could to get us our tour, including giving the tour herself, as her guides were sent home for the day because Viator never informed them of our $600 tour reservation. Stressful, to say the least. But Alisa was FANTASTIC!!! Our tour lasted for 3 & 1/2 hours, but because of the Viator error we never got to the Baldini Gardens. A disappointment. Viator needs to get their act together and not have this happen to any other tourists.
