FIND YOUR BASE
Florence works as a base for art and guided excursions, while a countryside stay offers a different pace. A smaller city hotel can simplify day trips; an agriturismo gives you more time to enjoy the surroundings. Check transport before combining villages with city life.
Explore the Uffizi Gallery on a small-group guided tour. The museum's collections offer an insight into Florence's art history and make a natural stop if Renaissance art is part of your trip.
