View From the Top

This is a little gem of a tour in Florence! A little history provided by our charming guide Benito, a cool drive above the city in a golf cart through tree lined streets shading hillside mansions, a little food tasting with wine at a Michelin star restaurant and a panoramic view of the city and its walls. Nice addition to our trip!

Nice to get a ride but not much of a tour

This was a good way to get up to the Piazzale Michelangelo on a showery day in a golf cart. The restaurant was great! There wasn't a lot of information provided on the tour as I think our guide was new. He was very pleasant and all in all it was a nice day.

Roberto for the win!

Roberto was the absolute best. Like family. We enjoyed our tour and will definitely be back to Florence to do all his recommendations. I can’t imagine a better tour guide. He’s very knowledgeable. Our daughter is an aspiring architect and he knew about them all!

We learnt a lot and he showed us amazing and beautiful sites. Would definitely recommend. A really good way to get a good overview of Florence's history.

Great for kids

Thank you Izzo (Enzo) for such a great trip! We had 2 infants with us and it was such an enjoyable (and easy) time with them. Our guide was super inclusive and mindful of our kids and went to our pace. A great family outing all around!
