What you’ll do

Enjoy Traditional Drinks and Scandalous Stories in the Heart of the Renaissance City. This isn’t your typical bar crawl… This isn’t your typical tour. The Tipsy Tour in Florence is the perfect blend of fascinating history, tasty drinks, and making memories with newfound friends. Explore the vibrant nightlife of the Renaissance City and sample signature Italian cocktails, wine, and shots. Along the way you’ll hear about Florence’s less savoury past with some saucy stories and dark history, all the while getting tipsy of course! The Tipsy Tour… Your fun-loving guide will wow you with scandals 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 had a penchant for poison and a dabble in the dark arts. As we travel from bar to bar, tracing the steps of prisoners and sex workers 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’ll visit at least two vibrant bars and enjoy drink stops outside famous sights. Plus, we’ll order shots from a wine window on 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 the city long into the night, making unforgettable memories with our Tipsy besties. Spaces fill up fast, so book your Florence Tipsy Tour today!

5
Giardino Martin Lutero: Your Tipsy Tour begins on the picturesque banks of the beautiful River Arno. Meet your guide and host for the evening’s festivities and get ready for a night out with fellow travellers.
6
First Bar: Through immersive storytelling, you’ll learn about the lurid affairs of the Medici family, a tale which includes bribery, corruption, and sometimes… even poison. But at our first bar we’ll drink something more pleasing to the palate: a glass of red wine. Sip as you listen to Florence’s riveting dark history.
7
Florence’s Historic Center: As you travel from bar to bar, your guide will transport you back in time with 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.
8
Second Bar: After hearing about the gory fate that awaited the conspirators, you’ll need a stiff drink – so we’ll be ducking into another bar for a traditional Italian cocktail such as an Aperol, Campari or Hugo spritz.
9
Wine Windows: With the help of your guide you’ll experience one of Florence’s longest standing traditions: wine windows! Get ready for photo-ops because this is an Instagrammable moment. You’ll discover the fascinating—and, as you’ll find out, all-too-familiar history behind their invention as you try a shot of Limoncello or typical Italian amaro that the secret bartender will serve you through them.
10
Santa Croce District: Your Tipsy Tour ends in the heart of the Santa Croce district on the famous Via dei Benci, Florence’s prime street for nightlife with buzzing bars on every corner. Enjoy the cocktail of your choice at a final trendy bar before you continue the night with your new “Tipsy” family.
