Private Tours and Unforgettable Experiences: Only with ArtViva

Artviva is well known throughout Italy for offering high-quality, smaller group scheduled tours. Our tours are only conducted in English and entertain as much as they inform. We have been featured on BBC World, The History Channel, Time Magazine, as well as recommended and praised by our clients- and celebrities- from all around the globe. Although ArtViva specializes in small public tours, our exclusive, one-of-a-kind private tours offer a different, more exclusive experience that will leave memories of your trip to the Bel Paese lasting a lifetime.

All of our public tours can be taken as private tours for a more personal, enriching experience. Why not experience a private tour with your family and one of our renowned guides who will regale you not only with Florence’s fascinating history, but also with stories and anecdotes not found in your history books at home?

Because ArtViva recognizes the needs of the affluent traveler, just as much as we recognize the budgeted needs of the travelling student, we now offer tours that go above and beyond your typical walk through the city.

Imagine a tour of the Uffizi with Maurizo Seracini, an art detective who was mentioned in the DaVinci Code. Or your very own private course in painting, cooking, gilding or wine tasting, taught to you by an authentic Italian expert in the field? Imagine having supper in a private palace with your closest friends and Italian aristocrat, or learning the step-by-step writing process from a best selling author who lives in Italy and writes about her experiences here. The world is at your fingertips through ArtViva experiences, all you have to do is ask.

ArtViva Walking Tours has been around for years- and we're all over the place. From Rick Steve's to Lonely Planet, to internet sites such as TripAdvisor, our tours are constantly being talked about. We pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service, entertaining, informative and fun tours, that leave a lasting impression on all of our clients and create memories that last a lifetime.
