Florence Boat Tour
Your guide will introduce you to the river Arno with its secrets, its history, and the beautiful Palazzi visible from the water. Your boat will pass in front of the Uffizi Gallery, home of many artistic historical treasures. Not many Florence visitors get the opportunity to cross under the unique Ponte Vecchio bridge! As you glide under this symbol of Florence, you'll find out more about the mysterious Vasari Corridor. You'll also discover the elegant Santa Trinità bridge – the world's oldest elliptic arch bridge, built during the Renaissance – as well as the sumptuous facade and terraces of the Baroque Palazzo Corsini.
Sit back and enjoy your knowledgeable guide's explanations, which may well include a few colorful local stories. Safe and enjoyable, your boat tour is powered by the "renaioli" with their long-reaching oars, a true Florentine tradition. Your mini cruise lasts about one hour, during which you will experience the splendor of this special city from the relaxed comfort of a gondola-style wooden boat.
