Join us on our two-hour Florence Segway tour to see the highlights of the Renaissance Pearl by Segway! Each of our Segway Tours begin with an orientation session, and your guide will make sure you're comfortable before embarking on tour. Once you're ready, we'll take to the streets and journey to the historic center of Florence.
On this tour, you will travel to the historic Republic Square, the impressive Signoria Square, the 15th century Strozzi Palace, and the famous Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore, the main cathedral in Florence. Along the way, your expert guide will tell you all about the sites, help with photos, and answer any questions you might have. With groups limited to just eight people, you will have easy access to your guide throughout your ride across Florence!
The tour meets at Via dei Cimatori 9R, 50122 Florence. Please be advised that there is not great mobile phone reception in and around our office, so screenshots of the walking directions can be helpful.

Your safety is always our highest priority. Therefore, we begin each tour with a very thorough orientation of the Segway and its use before going out to enjoy the city
We’ve found that our guests pick up on how to ride a Segway within the first 10 minutes, but we like to take 20-30 minutes to explain the machines, demonstrate the best riding techniques, and then allow time to practice before heading out to see the sites. We like to ensure that every guest feels 100% confident before beginning the tour.
While riding a Segway is fairly leisurely, you will be on your feet for the duration of the tour.
For safety reasons, minors (16 & 17 year olds) must be accompanied by an adult on the tour.
