Tour Description

Enjoy Traditional Drinks and Scandalous Stories in the Heart of the Renaissance City.

This isn’t your typical bar crawl…

Get ready for a tour like you’ve never experienced before. Our Tipsy Tour is 18+, but not because of the drinking. It mixes all the best elements of touring Florence – salacious stories, violent tales, and a drinks selection worthy of the Medici.

The Tipsy Tour…

Your fun-loving guide will wow you with scandalous stories from Florence’s history. Sip away as you learn the life stories of some of Florence’s most notorious figures. The Medici are a great starting point – specifically, Catherine de Medici, believed by many to have a penchant for poison and enjoy a dabble in the dark arts.

As we travel from bar to bar, tracing the steps of prisoners and prostitutes alike, your guide will immerse you in the bloody tale of the Pazzi Conspiracy, where Lorenzo de Medici and his entourage were attacked in Florence’s cathedral during High Mass on Easter Sunday. Then you’ll find out what happened to the Pazzi family, too.

Spoiler alert – it was way worse.

 

During the experience, we will visit at least two vibrant bars and enjoy drink stops outside famous sights. Plus, we’ll order wine from a window in the street, like a true Florentine. You might wonder why wine from a window never became a worldwide phenomenon, and trust us – we don’t know either.

When the Tipsy Tour is over, the night out officially begins. We’ll enjoy Florence long into the night, making unforgettable memories with new friends.

Highlights

  • Traditional Italian drinks in trendy local bars
  • Discover the darker side of Florence’s history
  • Enjoy the knowledge of a fun-loving guide and company of like-minded travellers

Giardino Martin Lutero

Your Tipsy Tour starts in a picturesque park on the banks of the River Arno. Meet your host and guide for the evening and enjoy some drinks while your guide gives you a fun, fact-filled intro to Florence’s darker history.

First Bar

As you explore, your guide will wow you with stories of the powerful Medici family, their lurid affairs and their passion for poison. But at our first bar, we’ll drink something more pleasing to the palette: a traditional Campari or Hugo Spritz!

Florence’s Historic Center

As we travel from bar to bar, your guide will immerse you in the bloody tale of the Pazzi Conspiracy, where the Pazzi family attacked Lorenzo de Medici and his companions in Florence’s Duomo on Easter Sunday.

Second Bar

After hearing the gory fate that awaited the conspirators, you’ll need a stiff drink – so we’ll be ducking into another bar for some more Italian spritzes or cocktails!

Wine Windows

Your guide will introduce you to one of Florence’s oldest traditions: the wine windows. Get ready for photo-ops, and discover the fascinating—and, as you’ll find out, all-too-familiar—history behind their invention and try some local limoncello (or something similar) that the secret bartender will serve through them.

Santa Croce District

Your Tipsy Tour ends in the heart of the Santa Croce district – the perfect area to keep the night going in one of the nearby bars or clubs.
