- Piazzale Michelangelo - Accessible with a short 200-meter walk.
Piazzale Michelangelo is a cherished highlight of the tour, renowned as Florence’s most iconic panoramic viewpoint. From this vantage point, visitors can enjoy a stunning view of the entire city: the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, Palazzo Vecchio, and the Arno River create an unforgettable scene.
This is an ideal spot for capturing postcard-perfect photos and enjoying a moment of tranquility. The driver will provide fascinating insights about the square, its 19th-century architecture, and the famous bronze replica of Michelangelo’s David that graces the terrace.
- INAF Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory - From the route’s highest point, a delightful panorama unfolds: the gentle Arcetri hills, adorned with cypress trees, historic villas, and vineyards. Among these stands the Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory, a symbol of Italian science, located near the home where Galileo Galilei spent his final years.
- Arcetri - As the journey continues toward the Arcetri hills, one encounters one of Florence’s most captivating and lesser-known spots. The Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory stands before us, surrounded by lush greenery, representing Florence’s rich scientific heritage.
Just below, nestled among cypress and olive trees, is Villa Il Gioiello, where Galileo Galilei spent his last years under house arrest. Here, in the peace and beauty of nature, he continued his astronomical studies and wrote some of his most significant works.
The view extends over harmonious hills dotted with villas, vineyards, and farmhouses — this is the essence of Tuscany, where history, science, and landscape blend seamlessly.
- Villa del Poggio Imperiale - Overlooking the southern hills of Florence, Villa del Poggio Imperiale is a grand historic residence that once housed the Grand Duchesses of Tuscany and later the Lorraine princesses. Surrounded by elegant gardens and offering spectacular city views, it is a prime example of late Renaissance and Neoclassical architecture.
Since 2013, it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site as an extension of Florence’s historic center, celebrated for its exceptional cultural and landscape significance. Today, it hosts the prestigious “Machiavelli International High School” while retaining its regal allure.
A hidden treasure away from the crowds — rich in history, art, and nobility — it’s an ideal stop for a scenic and cultural break beyond the usual paths.
- Porta Romana - Porta Romana is one of Florence’s ancient city gates, situated along the historic road that once led to Rome. Constructed in 1326, it is the only Florentine gate that still retains its original massive wooden doors, a rare testament to the city’s medieval defenses.
Here, a long stretch of the 14th-century walls that once encircled and protected the historic center can still be seen. Walking — or passing through by golf cart — in this area feels like a journey back in time, among towers, bastions, and ancient entry roads.
Today, Porta Romana also serves as a link between the city and the hills: from here, tree-lined avenues lead to Boboli Gardens, Poggio Imperiale, and the Chianti countryside. It’s a place where history and landscape converge, offering a perfect balance between urban life and nature.
- Fiesole - Fiesole is one of the most captivating stops on the panoramic tour — a quaint village perched on the hills overlooking Florence, just ten minutes away yet offering a completely different atmosphere.
Founded by the Etruscans long before Florence, Fiesole is considered the city’s ancient predecessor. Strolling through its narrow streets, one can feel a serene, timeless ambiance. From the main square and the nearby belvedere, the view over the Arno Valley and Brunelleschi’s Dome is simply breathtaking — all of Florence stretches out at the foot of the hills.
Here, life slows down: the scent of cypress trees, the sound of church bells, and the deep connection between Renaissance Florence and its Etruscan and Roman roots are palpable.
It’s the perfect place to pause, take a few photos, and recount the story of how it all began: before Florence, there was Fiesole.
