What you'll see and do
Piazza Della Repubblica
It is one of the largest squares in Florence and the heart of the city since Roman times. At the center of the square is the Column of Abundance, the navel of the city, a symbol of the meeting point of the main streets of the ancient Roman city, the Cardo and the Decumanus. The square still hosts some of the most sought-after shops and clubs in Florence, such as the "Giubbe Rosse", a meeting place, since time immemorial, of men of letters and intellectuals.

Piazza della Signoria
The area now occupied by Piazza della Signoria has always been very important for the city. During the Middle Ages, a baptistery, an early Christian basilica and, where Palazzo Vecchio stands today, a building used as a prison were built in the area. In the 10th century, as large towers were erected throughout the city, the old buildings were either demolished to recover their stones or incorporated into new constructions. In the area of Piazza della Signoria, the Palazzo dei Priori was built near the towers of the Ghibelline Uberti family. Today, in the splendid Piazza, it is possible to admire, in addition to Palazzo della Signoria, numerous statues linked to the most important events in the city of Florence;

Ponte Vecchio
It is the oldest and most famous of the bridges in Florence. It crosses the Arno at its narrowest point and in this area, already in the 1st century, the Romans had built a wooden bridge. In 1565 the architect Giorgio Vasari, by order of Cosimo I, built the "Vasari Corridor". The marvelous Corridor, built in just five months, is an elevated structure, about a kilometer long, which connects Palazzo Vecchio, the political center of the city with Palazzo Pitti, at the time the residence of the Medici, passing through the Uffizi Gallery, the Lungarno Archibusieri, the shops on the eastern side of the Ponte Vecchio and going around the top of the Mannelli tower.

Piazza Del Duomo
Piazza del Duomo truly represents the heart of Florence's Renaissance heritage, showcasing art, architecture, and religious significance all in one place. Whether you're marveling at the architecture, exploring its history, or simply sitting in the square soaking in the vibe, it’s a must-see on any Florence itinerary

Very informative, Rosa...
Very informative, Rosa was a wonderful guide, she was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. We had a wonderful time the tour was very personal like being shown around by a friend!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! ❤️ It was truly a pleasure showing you around Florence and sharing the city’s history and hidden stories with you. I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that it felt personal and relaxed, just like being shown around by a friend. Your kind words mean a lot to me and to the whole RosewayTours team. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Florence again soon! 🇮🇹✨ Warm regards, Rosa RosewayTours

The Happy Accident
A very Happy Accident is the best way I can describe our tour with Rosa. Our travel agent seriously goofed. He promised stuff that wasn’t included and set us off for a very redundant tour that we had already taken earlier in the day. Rosa didn’t miss a beat after the discovery of our agents mistake. She simply asked, “what do you people really want to do?” Florence was the first stop on our journey and this was our second evening there. I looked at her and asked her to show us how the people (not the tourists) of Florence eat and entertain themselves. That’s where the fun began! We went to shops, cafe’s, and restaurants. We met her friends, had drinks, and excellent food. I felt like I belonged in Florence. I made friendships with people I would love to meet again. It was the single greatest experience I had in my five country European tour and Rosa was simply exceptional! Do yourself a favor, on your first evening in a new city, take a food tour a few blocks away from the tourist zones.
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your incredible review. It truly means the world to me. Although your trip didn't begin as planned, I'm so happy we were able to turn it into such a special and memorable evening. My goal is always to create authentic experiences, and I'm delighted that you enjoyed discovering the real Florence through its local food, cafés, and the wonderful people who make this city so unique. It was a genuine pleasure meeting you, and I'm honored that this became your favorite experience during your European journey. I hope our paths cross again one day, and I'll be waiting to welcome you back to Florence for another unforgettable evening. Thank you again for your kind words and for trusting me to show you my city. Warmest regards, Rosa Roseway Tours

How long does Florence by Night: Private Tour with Optional Steak Dinner take?

Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is Florence by Night: Private Tour with Optional Steak Dinner worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice".

What should I bring or wear?

When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
