Itinerary

  1. Livorno

    2 hours

    Upon arrival, you'll receive a warm welcome, setting the tone for an unforgettable journey. We will ensure a comfortable and safe transition to the picturesque Florence. As you travel, take in the serene beauty of the landscapes, offering the perfect prelude to your adventure. The journey to Florence, which takes approximately couple hours , promises to be just as enjoyable as the destination itself.

  2. Florence

    2 hours

    Welcome to Florence—an introduction like no other.

    You're greeted by your licensed Florence guide, someone who welcomes you not just as a visitor, but as a guest in a city they know and love intimately. This isn’t just a guide—it’s a passionate historian, a Renaissance expert, a masterful storyteller who brings to life the Medici dramas, artistic breakthroughs, and hidden corners of the city with energy and elegance.

  3. Mercato Centrale

    2 hours

    Now it’s your turn to be Florentine. In the Central Market Square we set you free—time to taste, shop, explore, and simply be in Florence at your own pace.

    This isn’t a tourist trap—it’s where locals buy produce, trattorias serve centuries-old recipes, and the real Florence shows itself to curious wanderers.

    Your choices? A fresh panino with mozzarella and prosciutto, a glass of Chianti as life passes by, handmade leather goods, ribollita, bistecca alla fiorentina, or the creamiest gelato in Italy—pistachio or stracciatella, you decide.

    Or just wander. Lose yourself in Renaissance streets, artisan workshops, tiny boutiques and photo-perfect corners that need no filter.

    Your Tuscan moment awaits—couple hours to fall in love with Florence on your own terms and pace
