Traveler reviews
Buses not on schedule
Red line unavailable after 14:00 pm due to unexplained reasons. Never got to finish all stops. Blue line bus stop 5 not even close to schedule. Over one and a half hour late.
Over 2 hours for bus to arrive to just sit in traffic. I do not recommend for Florence.
Don't waste €29 euros to sit in traffic. We waited 2 hours 13 minutes in the queue on Wednesday 20 May as the 1st two buses were full. And then the tour was just listening to music, not much information on the traffic jam we were in, no historical sights lined up with the audio. I love these buses and have been on quite a few because they're a great way to see a city but I would not recommend Florence at all. It was an awful experience. Staff were stressed and couldn't give us a definitive answer when the next bus would arrive, everyone was fed up waiting but they kept taking people's money and telling them to join the queue. We got less than halfway round, got off and explored ourselves on foot for fear of wasting another 2 hours of our day trip in Florence.
Poor management
I would not recommend the organisation associated with this tour. I have done several hop on/off city bus tours but this was the worst experience. We purchased tickets online then immediately joined the queue at one of the stops. Three busses were full so no option to board. The busses were every 25 mins or so. We gave it 2 hours waiting at the same stop. The staff at the stop were still taking bookings rather than managing the queue and warning people of the likely wait time. Not impressed at all and I will not buy another tour from this company.
A day in Florence
Worth doing for a day in Florence . For those who like to site see versus lining up to view art or museums, but still allow hop off at your specific spots
Bus didn’t turn up
The bus never turned up. Please give us a refund. We had a small child in the heat. Would not do again
