Step beyond Florence’s Renaissance beauty and uncover its darker past on this original storytelling tour. Over two immersive hours, your expert English-speaking guide will take you on a journey through the mysteries, legends, and brutal history of Medieval Florence, a time before Michelangelo and Botticelli, when warring families and invading armies kept the city in turmoil.

Your tour explores both iconic landmarks and hidden corners, revealing chilling stories rarely told. Walk across the Ponte Vecchio and through Piazza della Signoria, hearing tales far removed from those of art and architecture. At the Palazzo di Bianca Cappello, discover the tragic love story of a Grand Duke and his mistress, whose deaths were only recently explained by modern science.

As you navigate Florence’s shadowy streets, learn about alleys once deemed “too dark” for safety, rooftop defences of boiling oil, and family feuds that turned deadly. Stand where traitors were burned and displayed as grim warnings to others.

This Florence Night Tour reveals a city of mystery, betrayal, and intrigue, offering a captivating glimpse into its forgotten past.
