Top Tuscany Sunset Cruises

A Florentine gondola boat tour offers a unique way to experience the beauty and history of Florence from the tranquil waters of the Arno River. Unlike Venice’s famous gondolas, Florence has its own traditional boats, known as “barchetti” or “renaioli,” which were originally used to transport goods along the river. Today, they provide an authentic and intimate way to discover the city from a completely different perspective.

Take in the top sights in Florence from both land and water with this unique combined walking and boat tour. Get a unique perspective on the Tuscan city’s Renaissance heritage as you stroll through the old town, then board a traditional gondola for a scenic cruise down the Arno River. Listen to stories about the city and its famous past residents from your guide, and toast to your introduction to Florence with a glass of bubbly Prosecco.
