Enhance your Italy walking holiday with a Florence city add-on

  • Add a few days in Tuscany's capital before your Italy walking holiday
  • A city of art, architecture and history where every street feels like an open-air museum
  • Visit the Duomo, Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio for Florence’s most iconic sights
  • Climb to Piazzale Michelangelo or Giotto’s Bell Tower for unforgettable city views
  • Indulge in fresh pasta, Chianti wine and gelato from artisan makers
  • 2–3 nights recommended

The Duomo dominates the skyline, but the Florence's magic often lies in the details: frescoed churches tucked down side streets, artisan workshops producing leather and paper goods, and cafés where locals linger over espresso for hours. Book ahead for the Uffizi and Accademia to avoid long waits, and give yourself time to really take in Botticelli, Michelangelo, and the Renaissance masters without feeling rushed. The streets themselves are a gallery, with palaces, fountains, and hidden squares waiting to be discovered. Food is a highlight too: from fresh pasta and Florentine steak in family-run trattorias to street-side gelaterias and markets overflowing with seasonal produce, there’s always something new to taste.

Our Walking Specialists can tailor your trip to the dates, durations and hotels that suit you.

  • Begin your morning at the Duomo, Florence’s most recognisable landmark. Climb Brunelleschi’s dome for a breathtaking panorama over the terracotta rooftops, or opt for the Campanile for a slightly quieter but equally rewarding view.
  • Next, make your way to the Uffizi Gallery, home to works by Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. Book in advance to avoid long queues and take your time wandering through centuries of Renaissance art.
  • In the late afternoon, stroll across the Ponte Vecchio to watch the Arno River shimmer in the golden light, then settle in for dinner at a local trattoria to enjoy hearty Tuscan dishes and a glass of Chianti.
  • Spend your morning exploring the Oltrarno district, Florence’s artisan heart. Wander through narrow streets lined with craft workshops, small galleries, and quiet cafés where locals start their day.
  • Stop by Mercato Centrale for a relaxed lunch. It’s the perfect place to sample fresh pasta, cheeses, and seasonal produce.
  • In the afternoon, slow down in the city’s elegant squares. Piazza della Signoria and Piazza del Duomo are magnificent at any hour, but they’re especially atmospheric in the early morning or late afternoon when the crowds thin and the light softens.
