Florence night walking tour: two walks compared

The cheaper night walk costs $49 for 2 hours, about $24.50 an hour. The daytime Renaissance and Medici walk covers the same theme, the cradle of the Renaissance, for $13 in the same 2 hours. So the night version costs $36 more, and you pay it for the hour, not for a longer route.

Reviews are thinner at night. The two night walks hold 129 reviews between them, while the daytime highlights walk alone has 6,080. Both night ratings are high, 4.7 and 4.9, but on far fewer bookings. The daytime walks are compared on the walking tours page.

If you have one evening to spare, yes, on the numbers: both walks hold ratings of 4.7 or above. The $49 walk is the safer value pick with 59 reviews. The $128 walk costs more than twice as much for the same 2 hours and has 70 reviews; you pay for a different subject, legends instead of monuments.

Neither description says when the walk starts or where it meets, so read the times on the listing before you plan dinner. Prefer the river by day? A raft or kayak under the Ponte Vecchio is on the main page, among all 75 tours by price band.
