Explore Florence’s treasure trove of history, art, and culture in its historic central districts.
Here’s everything you need to know before your day unfolds.
Italy’s Cradle of the Renaissance boasts millennia of history, art, and culture – and with a local host, you’ll soak it up in four hours. You could pass by the house where Lisa Gherardini (Mona Lisa) and her husband lived, or see the tombs of Botticelli and the Vespucci family. Maybe you’ll learn about the 1993 bombing of the Uffizi as you visit its commemorative olive tree monument. Or perhaps you’ll simply move between sun-dappled archaeological treasures like the site of the Roman amphitheater and markings outlining archaeological discoveries on Via del Proconsolo street before tucking into a typical Tuscan lunch among the ruins of the Fishing Lab – a remarkable restaurant with recovered frescoes upstairs and Roman ruins in the basement!

Mara was amazing! She even helped us with parking as we were driving into the city. When the road was blocked with a bus that prevented us from getting to the parking garage, she walked to us with someone from the parking garage and directed us into the garage! I loved all the spots she took us to. It was exactly what we were looking for. I loved that she stopped and pointed out things that the big groups walked right by. She gave us amazing recommendations for what to see on our own, and where to pick up specific things we were looking to purchase
