Ponte Vecchio

The Ponte Vecchio is one of the most famous bridges in Florence, and when you visit, you'll walk across this iconic bridge full of history, medieval buildings, and sparkling jewelry shops. The bridge consists of three arches and was built in 1345 by Taddeo Gaddi, replacing older versions from Roman times. Long ago, butcher shops lined the bridge, but the Medici family replaced all the shops with wooden shutters, goldsmiths, and jewelers to clean up the area. As you explore, look up to see the Vasari Corridor, a secret walkway the Medici used to move between Palazzo Vecchio and Palazzo Pitti. In World War II, it was the only bridge the Nazis didn’t destroy. In the middle, you’ll find a statue of Benvenuto Cellini, where you can leave a love lock like many tourists do—another reason to experience the charm of the Ponte Vecchio for yourself. Visit Ponte Vecchio to walk through history, enjoy the views, and create your special moment in Florence!

From famous tombs to stunning art, Santa Croce brings together the best of Florence’s history, religion, and culture in one incredible space.

But it's not just about who's buried here. Inside, you’ll see impressive art, like Giotto’s frescoes and Donatello’s wooden crucifix.

Exceptional Value & a Stress-Free Way to See Tuscany! This tour is incredible value for money! We managed to see so many beautiful places—Siena, San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, and the Chianti Wine Region—all in a single day, plus we got to enjoy a wonderful winery tasting experience. We had originally planned to rent a car and do a road trip ourselves, but taking this tour completely saved us from the stress of driving, navigating, and parking in Italy. It was the best decision we could have made. A huge, special thank you goes to our guide, Alex. He was incredibly energetic, helpful, and friendly. His amazing energy truly brightened up the entire trip and made the day so much fun! We also want to thank our driver, Patrick, for navigating the roads and driving us around safely all day.

Emma was a great host with great enthusiasm and a sense of humour. She was very informative on the bus ride to the winery by explaining the history of various sites and buildings along the way. Once we arrived at the winery, we were greeted by Tamara who hosted the tastings. She too was very enthusiastic and had a great sense of humour. The experience was very pleasant overall.

This was a great tour and we had a great day of tasting wine and olive oils and being fed at beautiful wineries throughout the Tuscan area. We got to stop and visit the toe of Imprugneta and have moments to take pics here and there which was super nice. Enjoyed the variety of wines featured in the tastings. Our guide Chiara was lovely and friendly, giving us lots of info on the area and topic of wine. We were in a luxury van for transportation which was comfortable and were in a small group with a couple so it was intimate which was nice. I am glad I booked this tour and would highly recommend it to others.

Everything is just perfect, the passion and dedication of Alex and Sara, the nice driver, the resonable staying time and the USB plug-embedded bus. We also have several chances to talk to each other, coming from Taiwan, USA, Korea, Brazil, Newsland, Spain, etc, and make the journey more memorable : ) One of the most precious experiences I have in Italy! 行程安排: 沿途景點:

Great 4.0
The tour guide was very diligent and meticulous, always making sure to clearly state meeting times, where restrooms were located, and where local specialties could be found. Initially, I hadn't planned to join the tour, but then a train strike occurred, and I was worried about transportation. I quickly paid the difference to join the group, and the guide was excellent at managing travel times. I didn't have to spend extra time finding my way or buying tickets, which saved a lot of time. If it's your first visit, joining a guided tour is highly recommended. The boat trip during the itinerary was also quite enjoyable. You must try the lemon candy, lemon slushie, lemon octopus salad, focaccia bread, and the fried seafood cup – they are delicious!

What to know before visiting Florence

Discover Florence’s art, history and guided experiences

Florence is centered on museums, tours and historical sites, with attraction passes and observation decks rounding out the most-booked experiences. Demand follows a strong seasonal rhythm, with clear high and low periods across the year that shape how busy the city feels.

Best months to visit for crowds and prices

According to Klook booking data, June is the peak month for demand while January sees the lowest visitor demand. Prices rise through spring and into May, with Klook bookings typically showing May as the priciest month and November as the month with the lowest typical prices. If you want smaller crowds and generally lower prices, aim for January through March or November; if you prefer peak-season atmosphere and the liveliest touring options, choose June (or late spring months), noting that prices tend to be higher then.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers from the United States typically book about 18 days in advance, with many locking things in around five days before departure or earlier. If your trip is longer than a quick getaway, plan a few weeks ahead for popular museums and guided tours—booking on Klook ahead of peak months helps secure preferred times and options. For short-notice or flexible travel, several activities still show availability within a few days of travel, so you can be spontaneous when needed.
