About this tour
Walk through Florence's centre with someone who actually lives here. Your guide unpicks the city's layered history and art across two hours, then pivots to where locals eat, drink and hang out. It's just you two, so you shape the conversation—ask about Renaissance palaces, current neighbourhood haunts, or whatever catches your eye as you move through the streets.

What to expect
Your guide meets you and starts moving through central Florence at a conversational pace. You'll encounter the main art and architectural landmarks, but this isn't a breathless monument-ticking exercise. Stop when something intrigues you. The guide answers what you ask—whether that's Medici politics, the state of the city now, or where to grab an espresso that doesn't fleece tourists. Two hours covers reasonable ground without exhaustion.
Good to know
Prams and strollers work fine on these routes. All walking surfaces are accessible for wheelchairs. Nearby public transport is available if you need to cut the tour short or arrive by bus. Wear comfortable shoes; Florence's pavements are uneven in places.
