We're happy to have you here!
Enjoy Florence like a local with our favorite places to eat, drink, and explore — and don't miss our lovely walks starting from Piazza Goldoni, perfect to discover the city's hidden gems.
We love starting our walks along the river, on Lungarno Vespucci.
From there, we reach Piazza Goldoni, where we usually decide which way to go…
Here are five of our favorite walks (all starting from Piazza Goldoni):
-
Follow the river to reach Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi Gallery, and Piazza della Signoria.
-
Head toward the Duomo through Via della Vigna Nuova, crossing Via Tornabuoni and Piazza Strozzi.
-
Cross Ponte alla Carraia to explore the Oltrarno area, passing through Piazza Santo Spirito and Piazza Pitti.
-
Visit Piazza Santa Maria Novella, walking along Via dei Fossi, and explore the beautiful Santa Maria Novella Pharmacy.
