Great Fun SUP Florence
Was great to participate in their first outing of 2025. Great Comms, fantastic way to see Florence on SUP. Nice stopping for a drink riverside. Also, free photos and videos shared promptly after the event. Recommended!

Wonderful SUP on the Arno in Firenze
A wonderful early morning sunrise SUP with Tommaso. Just two of us. Me Pete hadn't SUPped before but Diane had. We arrived 630am and Tommaso was there with all the equipment. He is a lovely character and speaks excellent English. Great safety instruction, very professional and we felt immediately comfortable. Once out on the Arno, he made sure we were ok and gave us clear direction as needed. We had some great chats and it was more or less a tour of Firenze from the water. Once back on dry land he took us for a coffee and breakfast at a local caffe. Tommaso took all the photos and videos and WhatsApped them to me later in the day, along with all the videos synced to music. Highly recommended and a different but great way to see the city from the water, very peaceful away from the crowds.

A holiday highlight!
My friend and I went paddle-boarding through the beautiful city of Florence. I had never paddleboarded before but Tomasso was a kind and calm tutor and we felt safe at all times. We got to see a different side of the city with stunning views of Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi, with kingfishers flying along either side. Tomasso was a great guide and we learnt a lot about this wonderful city. He took photos/videos (so we wouldn't fall in!) and even treated us to a coffee after our trip. Thank you so much - this was a highlight of our holiday! :)

Beautiful View of Ponte Vecchio
We had an amazing time on this tour! Very fun & easygoing. It was so cool to see the Ponte Vecchio from this point of view. This tour is great whether you have experience on a paddleboard or not. I would most definitely do it again and recommend it to all.
Response from the operator: thanks! a pleasure have you on board!

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding cost?
+
Prices start at $100 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 SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding 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 SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 32 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 SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding?
+
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 SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 6. 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 SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding?
+
Around 11 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 SUP at Ponte Vecchio with a Floating Drink - Florence Paddleboarding 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.
