by Camryn Samuel


With all its pedestrian streets, Florence is a very walkable city. However, it can be exhausting to explore the city on foot all day. There is a simple solution – ACCORD Italy’s Golf Cart Tours. Exploring the city on wheels saves visitors time, energy, and stress. Discover our tour and how to visit Florence most comfortably. 

 

Visiting Florence On Foot

Florence is a center for art, history, and culture. With all there is to see, Florence becomes difficult to visit on foot. Florence has sites throughout the city, creating large distances between attractions. Walking these long distances can become particularly exhausting during the popular tourist seasons in spring and summer when the city is hot and humid. 

 

Not only does this tourist season bring heat, but the many visitors crowd Florence’s streets. Navigating these crowds, especially with children and the elderly, can be stressful and time-consuming. With limited time in Florence, it is crucial for visitors to find the most efficient and comfortable ways to tour the city. 

 

The Golf Cart Tours

By touring Florence on a golf cart, visitors can experience the best of Florence without the difficulties of walking. See more in less time by not wasting time navigating crowds and walking long distances. The ease of riding a golf cart will save tourists from physical and mental stress. 

 

Not only is the Golf Cart Tour easier than walking, but visitors can access areas others miss, like hidden streets and panoramic views. We offer two golf cart tours. The first tour is Florence Piazzale Michelangelo Golf Cart Panoramic Tour. During this tour, discover Piazzale Michelangelo, the historic Abbey of San Miniato al Monte, Forte di Belvedere, and Poggi Ramps and the Fountain of the Ramps.
