What to expect
You'll be picked up in Rome and driven to Florence in a private, climate-controlled minivan. Your driver—not a certified guide—is well-versed in Italian history and geography and can answer questions during the journey and stops. You'll have freedom to explore Florence's major sites (Duomo, Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, etc.) at your own speed. Entry tickets, meals, and any licensed guide services are separate costs. The return journey to Rome is included. Allow time for travel—Florence sits roughly 3 hours north of Rome.
Good to know
Book museum tickets online in advance to skip queues. Drivers offer commentary but aren't official guides; hire a licensed one separately for detailed art-history context. The minivan fits wheelchairs and strollers. Bring cash for tips and meals. No lunch provided.
