Florence Hills: A Dolce Vita Journey Through the Hills

A journey through Florence’s heart and hills — from Renaissance wonders to artisan soul, far from the crowds

Step into the timeless elegance of Florence and its surrounding hills on this four-hour escape designed to reveal the city’s most authentic side. A perfect balance of art, nature, and tradition, this experience invites you to discover not only the iconic beauty of Florence, but also the quieter, soulful places where the city’s heritage lives on.

Start in the Heart of Renaissance Florence

Your adventure begins aboard our iconic, fully electric vintage Fiat 500s, gliding through the historic center to admire landmarks like the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Repubblica, and Palazzo Pitti.

Panoramic Views from Above the City

Soon after, you’ll leave the bustle behind and ascend to Piazzale Michelangelo for the city’s most breathtaking view — Florence spread out below, crowned by Brunelleschi’s dome.

The Tranquility of San Miniato and the Rampe dei Poggi
The route continues to San Miniato al Monte, a Romanesque gem nestled above the city, and then along the scenic Rampe dei Poggi, which lead into the tranquil Tuscan hills.

The Ancient Charm of Fiesole
From here, you’ll make your way to the hilltop town of Fiesole, an ancient village with Etruscan roots, panoramic views, and a serene atmosphere — a place where the slower rhythm of Tuscan life invites you to pause and savor the moment.

Authentic Encounters with Florentine Artisans
The experience is enriched by visits to artisan workshops along the way. You’ll meet skilled leatherworkers, goldsmiths, and engravers who carry forward Florence’s artisanal traditions with passion and precision. These intimate encounters offer a rare glimpse into the living craftsmanship that has shaped the city’s identity for centuries.
