No need to worry about where to begin! Our tours are designed as a loop, so you can jump in wherever you are. The navigation system and audioguide will automatically adjust to your location. However, if you happen to be nearby, we do have a preferred starting point : Piazza San Giovanni
Porta al Prato Car Park – Stazione Leopolda : Via Elio Gabbuggiani Before you drive in Florence, you should know the following rules. Driving in the city center is prohibited unless you’re a local resident. The entire historic center is a Limited Traffic Zone, or ZTL, in effect from Monday to Saturday during specific hours. The best option is to park outside this zone in a paid car park and take public transport into the city center. The car park we recommend is affordable, safe, and avoids taking spots reserved for residents. You can book your parking in advance to ensure you’ll have a spot.
Florence is an open-air museum — there’s so much to see! We recommend buying the City Pass in advance. It gives you access to the city’s must-see attractions, with skip-the-line tickets at a discounted rate! This tour takes you past some of the city’s major landmarks. The palaces and Medici chapels are open to visitors, and you can buy your entry tickets in advance! While the nicest weather is in July and August, Florence is one of the most visited cities in the world. That’s why we recommend exploring it off-season — for example in spring — when the weather is pleasant and the streets are less crowded.
