FLORENCE TOP 3 Essential Spots to Visit in 2025 🇮🇹

Visiting Florence, Italy, these are the top three places you MUST visit on your first day or your only day in town. The Duomo - climb the Duomo - Ponte Vecchio (for your selfie photo), and Piazzale Michelangelo for sunset drinks

You should get up above Florence in a rooftop bar at the end of a day of sightseeing. I visit La Terrazza at Hotel Continentale and talk about the top list of bars on rooftops for food and drink when visiting this Tuscan Renaissance capital.

I was just in Italy from May 3-9th (2023) and I fell in love with Florence! This video was in my recommended and it just makes me miss Italy! I didn’t get a chance to climb the steps of the Duomo so that’s more than enough of an excuse to go back! Thanks for the video!

Love this. Subscribed. Travelling to Florence for the second time in sept, from New Zealand. Your content is awesome

Your video are extremely helpful! Thank you for the tips, did all the things the first day we were in Florence!
The only negative which is that we bought drinks from the same guy on top of Piazzale Michaelangilo and he was extremely rude and started yelling when we asked for a napkin from him. So would recommend buying your drinks from another stall there.

Please do one of these for Rome, Modena and La Spezia! 😊

Just got back from Rome, your vids about travel tips were helpful! Hoping to go to Florence this fall!

Hi Gregor, I need some advice from you. I'm traveling with my husband and 3 yr old son to Florence in the first week of October 2022 to Florence. It is my husband's birthday and we wanted to dine out at a nice but reasonably priced place in Florence to celebrate his birthday. Could you suggest any such places? We are put up at Machiavelli Palace.Also is tap water in Florence and rest of Italy, drinkable? Also for our 4 yr old son ?Thanks

How you dont have a million subbies is beyond me....you give the BEST advice and tips! QUESTION: I am visiting Venice in May, (Venice is home base) and would love to visit Florence for just a day? Can it be done? Thank you so much in advance!

Good info. I am traveling to Bologna, Florence and Riggio Emilia on the 22nd of July. Any advice on restaurants in Florence?

@Gregory @Everyone: I'll be jetting over to Venice, and Emilia Rom region at the end of April. What mobile mobile carrier do you advise I grab a temporary sim with for those regions? I'm assuming I can pick one up while I'm at the airport? I'll only need a week's worth of coverage in those areas. Thanks!
