Description
Explore the hills of Florence in a luxury private golf cart, enjoying breathtaking views and places linked to Galileo Galilei. A journey through history and nature, away from the chaos of the city center.
Discover a side of Florence that many visitors never see: its green hills, the most evocative viewpoints, and the timeless atmosphere of the countryside surrounding the city, all in maximum comfort aboard a private electric golf cart.
This scenic and relaxing tour takes you away from the crowded historic center, crossing the hilly areas that offer some of the most beautiful views of Florence. Starting from the city, you'll head up to Piazzale Michelangelo, the most famous panoramic terrace, where the city unfolds before your eyes in a postcard setting.
The route continues to the Basilica of San Miniato al Monte, one of the oldest and most fascinating churches in Tuscany. Its Romanesque façade, quiet atmosphere, and elevated position make this place a real gem, also perfect for beautiful photographs.
The tour then continues through the elegant hills of Arcetri and Pian dei Giullari, an area loved over the centuries by artists, poets, and scholars such as Galileo Galilei. Among cypress trees, historic villas, and olive groves, you can enjoy a slower and more authentic pace of life, listening to local stories, curiosities, and anecdotes shared by your driver along the way.
Designed for those who want to experience the natural and historical beauty of Florence without facing uphill walks or city traffic, this tour is perfect for couples, families, photographers, and those looking for a relaxing but content-rich experience.
