Amazing guide. Tell the stories of the artworks in a very interesting and entertaining way. It suits the group and took us to eat somewhere very rich. Thank you Danielle for an amazing experience in Florence





Dare to dive into the past with a real medieval guide? If you’re brave enough, we’ll show you history from the inside. A character from the era will narrate the story! Welcome to the Palazzo Vecchio, the ultimate power pad of Florence! This place was HQ for running one of the planet's top nations - talk about major decision-making going down! The Medicis? Oh, they fought tooth and nail for a slice of this palace pie. We'll take you on a wild tour through its halls, even spill out onto Piazza Signoria. We'll uncover hidden nooks and crannies that'll blow your mind. Prepare for a sensory overload! Hear tales from the past, catch glimpses of the big players, feel the texture of history under your fingertips, and breathe in that rich historical aroma. Oh, and did we mention our guide's a time-traveling pro? So, if you're feeling fancy, dress the part and join the fun. Ready to plunge into the past? Let's make history happen!

From the operator’s live schedule on Viator, checked Oct 13.
Piazza Signoria is one of the most impressive spots in Florence. It leaves everyone speechless because it's filled with sculptures and beauty. In fact, it's the largest open-air museum in the world! But we know even more... we know it's full of secrets and fantastic figures. Are you ready to discover them all?
You can't even imagine the history and stories hidden behind the walls of Palazzo Vecchio! It's one of those magical places where you travel back in time. You enter the most important palace of the medieval city... but once inside, voila! What's this? We find ourselves right in the courtyard of a Renaissance palace... How is that possible? If you want to know, come to visit it with us, we'll tell you all the secrets! It doesn't finish there. As we climb up and explore the halls filled with frescoes and sculptures, the colorful rooms and corridors, you'll discover a magnificent place that "apparently" didn't seem like it. But we won't stop there because we want to make you feel the past with all four senses: sight, hearing, smell, and touch. What do you say, are you up for time travel?

Amazing guide. Tell the stories of the artworks in a very interesting and entertaining way. It suits the group and took us to eat somewhere very rich. Thank you Danielle for an amazing experience in Florence
Daniele, our guide, was able to involve the children with sympathy and originality, while managing to provide useful information and details for every age. We would be curious to try the other proposals in the city, too bad not to stay in Florence longer!
Grazie di cuore Laura per aver condiviso con altri viaggiatori la tua esperienza così positiva! Siamo davvero felici di aver passato del tempo con voi! Speriamo di riavervi presto con noi per scoprire e altre gemme di Firenze attraverso i nostri tour per bambini e famiglie. Un abbraccio a voi...grandi e piccini Daniele e tutta la crew di Florence Syndrome
We ended up booking Florence Syndrome for 4 of the 5 days we stayed in Florence. After the first day - the tour was so amazing / insightful / that we knew we had to visit all the other spots in Florence with them. It’s a husband and wife team and they literally make you feel like a Medeci movie is playing out before your eyes. You can never get this level of insight without them. I will tell all my friends and family to book with them. Beyond 5 star.
Wow Shamir, Thank you very much for your lovely words!🙏🏾 It was a real honor and pleasure to accompany you and your wonderful family to discover out city. We hope to see you soon to offer you more experiences for children in Florence. Daniele and all the crew of Florence Syndrome
I participated in this beautiful tour, the guides Daniele and Consuelo dressed in historical clothes!, literally took us by the hand and introduced us to the Renaissance world of the Medici family. They involved young and old making us passionate about the wonders of Florence we will definitely return to participate in other family tours. Highly recommended!
Grazie di cuore per aver voluto condividere con altri viaggiatori la tua esperienza così positiva. Speriamo di rivedere te e la tua splendida di famiglia nuovamente a Firenze per accompagnarvi alla scoperta di tutte le meraviglie della nostra città attraverso i nostri tour per bambini e famiglie. Daniele e tutta la crew di Florence Syndrome
I visited Florence with my family. We took three tours with the incredible Florence Syndrome. We (Palazzo Vecchio, Accademia, and the Uffizi Gallery). Each tour was led by our fantastic guide, Consuelo, who went above and beyond to engage our 8-year-old daughter with fascinating stories and anecdotes. The tour of Palazzo Vecchio was especially memorable. Consuelo dressed in historical costume, which added an authentic and immersive touch to the experience. We couldn't have asked for a better way to explore the rich history and art of Florence. We highly recommend Florence Syndrome to anyone visiting the city, and we can’t wait to return to discover more hidden gems of Florence with them.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed your tours with Florence Syndrome. We pride ourselves on creating engaging and memorable experiences, especially for families and children, and it’s great to know that Consuelo’s stories and creativity made a lasting impression. We look forward to welcoming you back to Florence for more family-friendly adventures and hidden gems! Daniele and all the crew of Florence Syndrome
I visited Palazzo Vecchio with my two "childrens" (11 and 16 years old). Daniele, our guide, was overwhelming and engaging. Through a clever mix of anecdotes and notions, we discovered one of the most decorated and beautiful buildings in the city. Daniele's assistance (from the first contact email, until we finished the visit) was essential in making us enjoy every single moment of my stay in the city. Advised A+++++
Thank you Laura for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled that Daniele’s engaging approach made your visit to Palazzo Vecchio memorable. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to see you again and run soon others kids and family tours with Florence Syndrome!
A peaceful and very informative day. I thought the children were bored but instead they were able to involve both adults and children.
Grazie Emiliano per aver condiviso con altri viaggiatori la tua esperienza così positiva con noi di Florence Syndrome. Speriamo di riaccompagnare te e la tua famiglia in altri tour per bambini alla scoperta delle gemme di Firenze.
