In questo tour conoscerai le storie e i segreti del palazzo da una guida locale, passeggiando tra stanze private e sale affrescate che hanno visto generazioni di monarchi. Con oltre 800 anni di storia fiorentina, c'è così tanto da scoprire.

Natalia was Amazing

Grant_G, Apr 2025

What a wonderful tour! Natalia was excellent and had a very deep knowledge of the Palazzo Vecchio. It was a wonderful tour and we enjoyed our couple hours with her. We highly recommend her tour.

Worth doing for its historical context

Derek_T, Oct 2022

The Vecchio is prob not at the top of the list of 'obvious' tours but its well worth doing, as it is closely intertwined with the history of the rulers of Florence and esp the Medici family. So it help sets the context for how for example the Uffizi and the other more well known aspects of Florence came to be. Martina our guide was fun and informative, the company City Florence Tours also well organised (I found some of the other local operators were not good, so be careful of the provider you choose).

Monumental view

Crystal_R, Mar 2022

Beautiful town hall! Get skip of the line tickets for the tower in ADVANCE (because of covid space is limited). Our tour guide was amazing and informative.

Worth it

Bonnie_B, Feb 2022

Leonardo was knowledgeable and engaging. The tour included a pass to the top of the tower which is quite a hike but the view was amazing.

Response from Host, Feb 2022

Dear Bonnie, thank you for sharing such a positive experience! We are very happy that you enjoyed the Palazzo Vecchio tour with our tour guide Leonardo! We hope to see you again Florence to do other tours together. Greetings, CityFlorenceTours Staff

Amazing Tour

Bryan_L, Oct 2021

Fabrizio from City Florence Tours was a brilliant guide on our visit to Palazzo Vecchio. He was excellent, from helping us through the Covid/Vaccination checks, to his knowledge and passion for Florence history in general and the Palazzo Vecchio in detail. The Hall of the 500 and the walk through the Medici rooms was exactly what we wanted. Being a private tour we didn't need to use headsets to hear which made it more informal and intimate than other tours we've been on. Thanks Fabrizio!

Response from Host, Nov 2021

Dear customer, Thank you for you time and for your fantastic review! Palazzo Vecchio is the most important monument in Florence, it represents the history of the city and we are happy that Fabrizio made your tour unique. Greetings, City Florence Tours Staff

Palazzo Vechio

Matthew_S, Dec 2019

We had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and willing to answer any questions we had. It was great to hear a little history of the Medici family.
