How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Florence is filled with countless attractions spanning millennia – but, from experiencing the archaeological layers of the ancient Roman city on Piazza della Signoria and Piazza della Repubblica to being blown away by the historic city center’s unexpectedly trendy shops and cool cafes (and indulging in an espresso and Tuscan cantuccio – biscotti), you’ll experience 20 of the city’s top attractions in just eight hours. You’ll see the perfectly preserved medieval streets, fortified palaces, and frescoed churches that make Florence famous – but more than that, your local insider will show you places you didn’t even know existed, like a column on Piazza del Duomo marking the location of an eighth-century miracle!

Gianmarco was the best tour guide: pleasant, informative and followed up with valuable Florence communication. The tour and introduction to Florence was spot on. He met us at our hotel upon our arrival to this bustling city. Gina provided the overview, history, key sites and reserved us a fabulous dinner spot. Even taking us there! He followed up with WhatsApp links to best places to visit or eat! Grazie Unscripted, easy efficient website and Gianmarco! Caio until next time!

Martina was fantastic. We saw lots of the city. New and old. Just enough history not to drown in it all. Loved it.
