See the best of Florence in 90 minutes without walking a step. Your private electric golf cart leaves from Piazza Carlo Goldoni, runs along the Arno past Ponte Santa Trinita and Ponte Vecchio, then climbs through Porta San Miniato to the Basilica of San Miniato al Monte and Piazzale Michelangelo, where the whole city opens up below you at sunset. A local driver-guide is at the wheel the whole way, telling you what you are looking at and answering your questions in English, Spanish or Italian, with MP3 audio commentary on board as well. The cart is yours alone: no strangers, no fixed timetable, and we stop wherever you want a photo. Ideal if you are short on time, travelling with children or older parents, or you simply want to see Florence without the crowds and the cobblestones.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We meet on the Lungarno Vespucci side of Piazza Carlo Goldoni, facing the river, next to Ponte alla Carraia. Look for the white golf cart with photos of Florence on the side. Your driver will call if he cannot find you, so please add a phone number that works in Italy to your booking.
