Florence Walking Tour at Sunset
♡ Save
Fall in love with Florence lit up at night on this wonderful free tour through the illuminated city streets which imbue this modern city with old, romantic Renaissance charm.
After taking part in our morning or afternoon tour, you cannot miss our sunset tour!
After talking about the history of Florence and the characters and artists who characterized it, we'll cross the Ponte Santa Trinita, a Renaissance bridge with a beautiful view of the Ponte Vecchio, and we will reach the other side of Florence, called Oltrarno, one of the most fascinating areas of Florence, where the most authentic people of Florence still live.
Then we will arrive at Piazza della Passera, a hidden jewel, full of craft shops, gastronomic delights and a rich history and through via Toscanella, a narrow and hidden street with beautiful murals, we will arrive at Piazza Pitti, where it will be possible to observe the monumental Pitti Palace, a fortified building on a small hill.
Last part of the tour: through via Guicciardini, we will arrive at Ponte Vecchio, where the tour will end. Then you can decide whether to cross the bridge and walk towards Piazza della Signoria or return to the lively nightlife in Oltrarno.
The tour will take place if at least 4 booked guests show up. We will notify you as soon as possible if the tour will be cancelled.
