Boating on the Arno river, parading in front of the famous monuments, on the waters of the river that has given life to Florence.
Quietly admiring beauties of Florence, accompanied only by the sound
of the long-sweeping wooded-oars rustling along the boat in the water.
You will pass in front of the Uffizi gallery, the beautiful caretaker of many artistic historical treasures, and in front of the mysterious Vasari Corridor. You’ll admire the infamous “Ponte Vecchio“ bridge from underneath, which thanks to Lorenzo il Magnifico offers the best in Florentine goldsmith tradition.
You’ll skimm the apse of the Church of Saint Jacopo, that appear to be standing on the waters of the Arno river. You’ll also pass under the tormented bridge of Santa Trinita, reconstructed five times, and today is an important symbol of the force and the rebirth of the city.
At the end you will be enchanted by the elegant grandeur of Palazzo Corsini. You’ll be able to see the city of Florence from it’s heart, relive its history and admire its artistic beauty on board the traditional “Barchetti” steered by your “Renaiolo” with long-reaching
sweeping-oars.
