While everyone else is in line for the Duomo, you can get tickets for a truly unique Florentine experience: a gondola ride down the Arno River.

With only four original wooden "barchettos" left in Florence, you can turn up the romance in this beautiful Renaissance city with a "barcaiolo" as your guide.

Enjoy a refreshing apertivo as you sail through the heart of Florence – in front of the Uffizi Gallery, under the Ponte Vecchio bridge, among other bustling piazzas, towering cathedrals, and extensive palazzos.
