A wonderful city, which you need to allocate at least 2 days.
Florence, in my opinion, is an open-air museum. I really liked this city. My wife was dissatisfied with him, said that she expected more. For her, the whole architecture is boring, monotonous, and unimpressive. To me, on the contrary, it seemed that the city perfectly shows the Renaissance, all the exhibits and architecture are designed in the right style. We did not visit all the attractions that we had planned, because in the middle of the day it began to rain heavily. All photos are attached. If you have the opportunity, visit all the most important sights, we followed the following route: Mercato Nuovo, San Miniato al Monte, Piazza della Repubblica, Basilica of Santa Croce, Palazzo Pitti, Piazzale Michelangelo, Galleria dell'Accademia, Palazzo Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, Santa Maria del Fiore, The Uffizi Galleries. We also visited the Museo Casa di Dante, I can not say that I really liked this museum, but if there is an opportunity, it is worth getting to know Dante Alighieri better, because he made a great contribution to the development of the city according to the guide. We had lunch at the restaurant Matto Matto, here is an exclusive Italian cuisine, delicious food, selected according to reviews, liked the place, good service, everything was quickly prepared. It turned out to be expensive – about 50 euros, but we did not deny ourselves anything. We took excursions around the city, because it was difficult to organize trips to the sights ourselves. But because of this, they were tied to other tourists. I advise you to explore all the places yourself, but for this you need to have a few days in Florence. One day is not enough. The city is very interesting, and we only spent an hour at The Uffizi Galleries.

Wonderful introduction to Florence.
So glad that we selected this walking tour for our first evening in Florence. It was a wonderful orientation to this beautiful city which has so many treasures. Glenda is excellent - very knowledgeable and extremely pleasant. Her love for Florence is contagious and made us appreciate all the more the treasures we encountered. Her recommendations were most helpful. Great tour!

Definitely worth it!
We enjoyed every bit of this tour and it was a neat surprise that the tour ended up with just the 2 of us so it was a private tour! Daniel was full of knowledge and communicated well. He knew a lot of history but also some neat trivia. He was warm and friendly and had a great sense of humour! We had lots of questions and he was able to answer them all really well. The time passed way too quickly and we learnt a LOT for sure. Would recommend this for sure, especially if you have a limited time for your visit, as you wouldn't know to do any of this on your own - it is well worth it!

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $29 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 Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide 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 Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide?
+
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 Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide?
+
Around 1 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 Private Exclusive Tour of Florence main attractions with local licensed Guide 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 Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. 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.
