Boboli and Bardini Gardens - Was a wonderful tour and the guide was excellent. We got to go into a new part of the garden that was opened just that day. Would highly recommend.

The Bardini Gardens are beautiful - Thoroughly enjoyed the Bardini Garden tour. I recommend visiting the Stefano Bardini museum near the entrance to the Bardini Garden. Having seen the museum enhanced the information shared by the tour guide about the garden. It was a warm day so we were a little worn out by the time we got to the Boboli Garden. So glad we saw the Bardini Garden first.

For sure worth to visit - We went on our own to the Bardini Garden. Beautiful garden, well maintained, to spend about 1 hour strolling up and down. Beautiful views from there over the city of Florence as well. Not the most famous, but for sure a pearl!
