About this experience
The wonderful gardens of Florence are still not known to tourists who only visit the monumental part of the city. We would now like to offer our visitors the opportunity to experience these parks up close, as the Florentines experience them. A walk to discover the unknown pearls and a picnic on the grass with fruit juices and traditional sweets or ice cream, depending on the temperature. Stibbert Garden. Anglo-Saxon park with trees. It was restored in elegant 19-century style by Frederick Stibbert. Villa Fabbricotti Park. Much loved by Florentine families with children. Orti del Parnaso. A breathtaking close-up view of Florence unfolds before the eyes of the visitor, with the enormous Dome, the palaces and the tall towers of the city. Parco dell’Orticoltura. The Società Toscana di Horticoltura was founded in 1854 to encourage the care of parks and landscape architecture in Tuscany. THIS TOUR IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR THOSE LOOKING FOR CONTACT WITH NATURE, ART AND BREATHTAKING VIEWS

What you'll see and do
The large English park, houses some curious monuments, fountains and sculptures. It is an intricate series of paths that go up and down in the bush, with furniture and angles of rest and view. The tall stem vegetation is represented by plants such as pines, oaks, horse chestnuts, lindens, on which beautiful cypresses are standing out some of which probably date back to before the restoration of Stibbert. The romantic setting is the pond, on whose banks there is a small temple in neo-Egyptian style, while the driveway decorated with a row of sculptures and classical busts is a typical element of the pre-existing Italian garden.
30 minutes here
The park is developed along the longitudinal axis that connects the entrance square on via Vittorio Emanuele II and the top of the slope dominated by the villa Fabbricotti, through the alternation of stepped ramps and terraces, at the end of which develops the large flat garden with lawn covering that surrounds the villa. From the entrance you can reach the top of the slope also along a wide winding road that, intersecting in two points the ramps, continues on the left of the villa to reconnect with the western terrace overlooking the belvedere.
30 minutes here
When you go from via Trento you will notice an elegant gate and a suggestive belvedere. It is from here that you access the Parnassus Gardens, the highest part of the garden of Orticultura, a beautiful terrace overlooking a breathtaking view.

Giardino dell'Orticoltura
The Garden of Horticulture is a garden in Florence born in the middle of 800. In 1854, when the practice of gardening became widespread, the Accademia dei Georgofili founded the Società Toscana di Orticoltura. From here the need for an experimental garden was born, which took place in 1859, when the Society was granted a plot of land owned by the Marquis Ludovico Ginori

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence cost?
+
Prices start at $45 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 Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence 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 Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 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 Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence?
+
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 Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence 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 Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence?
+
Around 0 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 Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence 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.
