A good idea on how to see the city! Buy only one day however as your plans may change and you will end up losing money!
Very good and informative. We had a different guide for the morning and afternoon. Both were excellent. Would not have learned about the history on our own. Lunch was included and was very good.
Wonderful way to see Florence! We took the city tour twice and the Fiesole tour once. Path up to Piazzale Michelangelo is absolutely breathtaking with the trees and Florentine mansions. Highly recommended just so you can rest your legs and enjoy the views!
A great way to explore the City and find out where everything is. Excellent value for money.
The tour was excellent and the guide was very knowledgeable.

Great way to see the city and learn of the history of things
This was a great disappointment and a waste of money! I had purchased vochers for 5 adults for 48 hrs. but ended up using less than 3 hrs.' worth. Firstly, we were frustrated not being able to locate the "hop-off hop-on" stop near Piazza Liberta where we were staying. The rainy weather didn't help either esp. when we had to run up and down the main road looking for the pick up point at every bus stop! We finally spotted the bus coming down the road, and tried flagging down the driver but of course, he could/did not stop. After making several calls to Viator's office, we learnt that the stops said "Florence Sightseeing" and not "Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour" which was totally misleading and confusing! This resulted in us missing the last few runs of tours on our first afternoon. The next day, when we finally learnt where the pick up location was, and finally got on the bus not even 10 mins. into our ride, the bus got stuck in an alley because a car had parked with its tail sticking out thus blocking part of the access. The police arrived but nothing else happened for the next 20 mins. before the guide suggested it was better to walk to the next pick up point. All our efforts for nothing! Since we had lost so much time already, and did not have the full 48 hrs. to spare as we were taking a separate guided tour the next day causing the vouchers to have expired by then, we decided to make it "worthwhile" by riding the bus on half its loop. All in all, very disappointing under the circumstances!
We thoroughly enjoyed our trips - infact we were so impressed we took the longer trip twice! There were times when the commentary and what we were passing didn't gel but it proved a very pleasant way to see a beautiful city
Our guide knows about Florence and the Uffizi Gallery. I strongly recommend this tour if you like art.
An absolutely fabulous tour ... stunning views along the way and stopping as near as possible to the historical center which is a pedestrian zone.
Wonderful tour took in everything we wanted. Easy to get on and off. Regular service friendly people.
Great Time, and excellent tour guides. They really know their imformation and I felt as if we were in a class and not on a tour. They shared insites into Florence. I would defintely use Viator again. Thanks for making our day a full and informative and fun time.
Awesome, loved every minute of it!
Our tour guide Arnoldo was excellent. Informative but not boring. Was patient and answered questions asked. Good tour of the highlights of Florence
