    Walking tour from the city and visit to the Uffizi

    We took a walking tour through the streets of Florence and the Uffizi palace with our 10 and 12 year old children. Alessia was an attentive and engaging guide making discover with particular riddles of the city. Pleasant also the visit to the uffizi.... making it easy to discover the masterpieces of our art. Very nice thought left to our children at the end of the tour. Highly recommended!

    Response from the operator: Grazie mille per la vostra splendida recensione! È stato un piacere fare da guida a dei bimbi così curiosi e attenti!

    Amazing Assassin Creed themed tour

    We had an Assassin Creed themed tour of Florence with Alessia. We visited the main sites featured in the game much to the absolute delight of our teenagers. Alessia was very knowledgeable and engaging, able to link the fictional aspects of the game with the historical reality and its main characters. The tour was never just about the game and Alessia sprinkled it with interesting facts about the history of the city and the life of his inhabitants through the centuries. Even before our visit Alessia was very helpful and full of advice and suggestions. Highly recommend booking a tour with her, it will frame and inform the rest of your visit to the city.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review!!!

    Assassins Creed Tour of Florence - excellent

    A terrific tour of Florence taking into account the Assassins Creed game. My 12 year old son greatly enjoyed the experience and Alessia got him nicely involved by asking questions about the sights, would it would mean for the people living there etc. Well worth the money and heaps of fun.

    Response from the operator: Hi! I'm thrilled you enjoyed our tour! Thank you for this beautiful review!

    Florence for kids: private tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.

    How much does Florence for kids: private tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at €200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Florence for kids: private tour 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 for kids: private tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Florence for kids: private tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Florence for kids: private tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Florence for kids: private tour?

    +

    Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Florence for kids: private tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Florence?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    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?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
