Tom was amazing. Take this tour and if possible request him. He was friendly, knowledgeable and all around made our tour perfect. Thank you Tom.
I am so glad the rules changed to offer this out of city centre tour as it was fabulous. Our driver, Eamonn was so knowledgeable, very helpful and kind. The views were simply out of this world and the visit to the oldest church at the top of the hill was superb. We were able to stop and witness the superb views over Florence and Eamonn explained well about the history of many places in Florence, including the fabulous wine windows. It was a fantastic tour and I am so pleased we were able to experience this out of city tour.
Wonderful bird’s eye view of the beautiful city. A great way to get an idea of the lay of the land in a comfortable, open air golf cart. Perfect for the summer heat. Our tour guide (Iman) was excellent!
A fantastic guide, Alberto. He was very knowledgeable and explained the history behind the places that we stopped at This tour took us to places we wouldn't have gone to on our own. We fully recommend booking this tour. Thank you once again Alberto. Grazie molto.
Not much to see in Florence to be honest- guide was also just present- maybe this was the problem. I’d say save your money for other experiences.
Our Florence tour with Tommy was great! He was very knowledgeable and shared a ton of info about all things Florence. Highly recommend booking this tour with him while you sit back in the golf card and learn cool history about Florence. We loved it!! Book it while you can.
Wonderful private golf cart tour of Florence with Tommaso “Tomi.” He was very knowledgeable and a blast. Enjoyed spending time with him! Highly recommend!
Alberto was the best! This was a great experience! We would do this again when we come back and recommend to anyone!
Super 1.5 hrs. The guide explained things super well and was considerate of us when we wanted to take photos. We were traveling with a wheelchair. The assistance with loading and unloading was great. Thanks Ayman! 😊 Received lots of lovely information and tips for our further stay. The trip went primarily into the hinterland; the major sights directly in the city could not be visited due to the city's restrictions.
A great way to go through the streets of Florence and hearing about the history. It’s a little something different and nice to get a rest after walking around the city. Our guide Tomaso (Tom) was entertaining from the second he picked us up until he dropped us off. He told us a lot of interesting tidbits about the city as he was born and raised there. And we also learned a little about his life and being a teacher in the area. Our group consisted of three retired teachers, so that was interesting to us. I definitely recommend a tour like this. I had been to Florence two other times and I would definitely do this again and opt for the longer tour.
