What to expect
Three hours on foot exploring Florence's urban art landscape. Your guide takes you through well-known squares first, then ventures into quieter streets where the work feels fresher and less curated. You'll stop regularly to examine pieces up close—some are bold statements, others require a careful eye to spot. The pace is steady but manageable; you're walking, not rushing. Expect a mix of permanent murals and newer tags that may have changed since the tour was last updated. This isn't a history lesson so much as a street-level conversation about what's happening now in the city.
