Description

Panoramic Tour of Florence – Piazzale Michelangelo Viewpoint Experience the best panoramic drive through Florence with this short but unforgettable tour by van. Starting from Via Curtatone, near Polimoda Fashion School, you will comfortably travel through some of the most charming and historic areas of the city. We begin by crossing Ponte Amerigo Vespucci, offering beautiful views of the Arno River, before heading towards Porta San Frediano, one of Florence’s ancient gates that still preserves its medieval charm. The route continues along the scenic Viali di Circonvallazione, passing by Porta Romana, the traditional southern entrance to the city. From here, the van climbs gently up the Florentine hills until reaching Piazzale Michelangelo, the most famous viewpoint in Florence. Enjoy free time for a short walk, take amazing photos of the skyline, and admire the breathtaking panorama with the Cathedral, Palazzo Vecchio, Ponte Vecchio, and the rolling Tuscan hills in the background. You can also enjoy a quick stop for a coffee or gelato at one of the nearby cafés, or, if time allows, visit San Miniato al Monte, a peaceful church just a few minutes above the square. After the stop, we’ll return comfortably to the city center, following a different route back to Via Curtatone, passing once again through Florence’s historic streets. Duration: about 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes Includes: round-trip panoramic drive by van, English-speaking driver, photo stop at Piazzale Michelangelo Ideal for: those who want a quick, relaxing, and scenic experience of Florence without long walks.
