Description

Discover the most authentic and panoramic side of Florence on a relaxing 2-hour tour through the green hills that rise just outside the historic center. Starting near Porta Romana, you will travel by electric golf cart along quiet residential roads, tree-lined avenues, and scenic hillside paths, far away from the crowds of the UNESCO area. Your journey begins as you climb toward Arcetri, a peaceful district where nature and history blend perfectly. Here you will pass by the house where Galileo Galilei spent his final years and enjoy open views of olive groves, vineyards, and elegant Renaissance villas. This area offers some of the most beautiful and uncrowded photo spots in Florence. The tour includes a special stop at the historic Trattoria Omero, a beloved Florentine institution since 1943. You will enjoy a traditional Tuscan tasting with a selection of cured meats, bruschetta, and a glass of Chianti wine. This break adds a genuine culinary moment to your experience, allowing you to savor local flavors in a warm and authentic setting on the hills. After the tasting, the tour continues along panoramic roads leading to the majestic Piazzale Michelangelo, Florence’s most famous viewpoint. From here, you can admire an extraordinary view of the city: the Duomo, the Palazzo Vecchio, the Arno River, and the Ponte Vecchio all spread out like a Renaissance painting below you. It is the perfect place for stunning photos and a true highlight of the experience. The return route to Porta Romana follows scenic hillside paths, giving you extra time to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and natural beauty of the Florentine hills. Designed for travelers seeking a comfortable, slow-paced, and meaningful experience, this 2-hour panoramic tour combines landscape, culture, tradition, and gastronomy. It is ideal for couples, families, and anyone who wants to discover Florence from a completely different and unforgettable point of view.
