From hidden cafes to secret stories, there’s more to Florence than meets the eye.
Here’s everything you need to know before your day unfolds.
Florence may be Italy’s sun-dappled Cradle of the Renaissance, but there’s more to the city than ancient architecture and renowned museums. Your local host will lead you off the tourist trail to visit secret spots your guidebook doesn’t even know about. Michelangelo’s David may be a must-see, but did you think to explore the impressive Laurentian Library, his least-visited architectural work? Ask your host for recommendations at a cozy wine bar, then hear local legends of wine turning into blood at Cosimo Rosselli Chapel of the Sacrament. Peek behind the curtain into modern Florentine life at antique markets, and when your feet need a rest, head to charming hidden haunt Caffé Verrone – a cafe on a terrace that was once used to hang laundry.

Show moreJacopo was very informative and set a good pace to the walking tour. He took extra time with us showing and explaining details and historical facts. He showed us wonderful places to look at on our own and places to eat or stop for a refreshment. Jacopo was most accommodating to our needs and interacted with everyone in our group.
Show moreMy young adult grandchildren and I enjoyed a short, 2-hour walk with Marilisa to see some non-tourist sites in Florence. She definitely knows how to structure her walks for the interests of her clients. It was our last day in Florence, and she gave us some excellent suggestions for restaurants and activities for our afternoon.
