Original guide didn't show up
The original guide didn't show up and gave me instructions to go to ANOTHER meeting point 20 minutes before actual event. This was extremely stressful ....so I went and waited at new location and nothing I whatsapped her and then she said she wont be there but the affiliate company will do the job. If I havent had asked her she wouldn't have told me. Extremely poor execution. I did find the affiliate company she was working with after that so at least I knew this wasn't a scam. But yeah caused me a lot of stress in the beginning.
Response from the operator: > Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the change of meeting point caused you stress before the tour. We would like to clarify that the experience you booked was a shared group tour, not a private tour with a specific guide assigned in advance. For this reason, the tour is operated by the first available licensed guide or partner company, and a particular guide's name is not guaranteed. On the date you booked, we did not have enough participants to operate the tour from the original departure point. Rather than canceling your reservation, we arranged for you to join the same tour through one of our trusted partner operators. The alternative meeting point was only a short walk (approximately 3 minutes) from the original location, allowing you to participate in the tour exactly as scheduled. We understand that unexpected changes can be inconvenient, and we apologize if our communication could have been clearer. However, our intention was to ensure that your tour took place as planned rather than being canceled. Thank you for joining the tour, and we appreciate your understanding. Kind regards, The Management Team

Interesting places, Guide accent difficult to understand.
Walking tour with commentary. The places we went to were interesting. However, The guide had a very thick accent, and it was difficult to understand her.
Response from the operator: Grazie di cuore per le bellissime parole! È stato un vero piacere accompagnarvi alla scoperta delle meraviglie di Firenze. Sapere che avete apprezzato il tour e la mia compagnia mi riempie di gioia. Vi aspetto sempre a braccia aperte per nuove avventure insieme! Un abbraccio, *Rosa – RosewayTours* 🌸

Why this scores 64
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights cost?
+
Prices start at $15 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 Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 11 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 Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights?
+
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 Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights?
+
Around 4 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Treasures of Florence: Guided Walking Tour of City Highlights 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.
