It is almost impossible that not even one remains. The Charterhouse of Florence is a monastery formerly of the Carthusian Order, which stands on Monte Acuto, at the confluence of the Ema with the Greve in the Galluzzo area, surrounded by walls.
The Medici Villa del Poggio Imperiale is located on the Arcetri hill, on the Viale dei Colli system in Florence. It was originally a Medici villa called Poggio Baroncelli, although today it is the Medici villa with a less Renaissance appearance, linked above all to the Baroque and neoclassical periods.
And finally, Piazzale Michelangelo and its spectacular view of the city of Florence.
La basilica abbaziale di San Miniato al Monte è un edificio religioso di Firenze. Ha la dignità di basilica minore, si trova in uno dei luoghi più elevati della città, ed è uno dei migliori esempi di stile romanico fiorentino.

Friendly knowledgeable amazing ride up into the hills outside both sides of Florence … with the best views ever.. THE way to actually see this city and understand the history..
We had a wonderful time with Enrico. We felt completely safe as we ascended and descended the steep curvy hills surrounding Florence. He was very knowledgeable about the different areas of Florence, as well as the towns and buildings we saw on the tour. Enrico was friendly and welcoming and we completely recommend this tour!
Great time seeing Florence. Loved the surprise stop at the leather purse store. Sure beats walking every place, and you get to see much more.
pros: staff very helpful and friendly cons: it was very hard to locate the tour car.. another tour company ended up calling them sightseeing felt rushed and guide pointed to things as we were moving rarely stopping.. some sights we only saw from behind other buildings my advice don't pre-book.. when you get to florence these kind of tours are everywhere
Dear Mr Sam, thank you for your review. Meeting point was sent on your Viator voucher and it is very easy to find. You called us twice and we helped you to find the place, which is just on the side of a giant church, actually extremely easy to find. Streets are very narrow in Florence, as you have seen for sure, so electric cars cannot stop for long time in front of the monuments. It is a municipality law, not our choice. Moreover, it is forbidden for any kind of transportations mean to enter some squares, like Piazza Della Signoria or Piazza del Duomo, as they are overcrowded and it could be dangerous. This is the reason why the driver can show those squares only from the external side. It is important to explain the reasons, in order not to leave you with the bad sensation of having missed something.
