Optional guided visits and costs

Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens: private guided combinations and small-group garden walks are advertised, but can be costly. One advertised two-hour Boboli small-group guided experience is around €170 each / €340 for two; availability and exact inclusions need checking. A simpler independent alternative is the official combined Pitti + Boboli ticket at €25 each in advance (€50 for two), without a live guide.

Guided garden tours normally involve standing and hills, so compare the walking difficulty before booking.

Comfort note

Boboli Gardens are hilly; take a shorter garden route if needed. In November the gardens close at 16:30, with last admission an hour earlier, so plan to enter before 15:30 and finish earlier than the original itinerary suggests.

Times, distances and prices come from the original holiday plan. Recheck opening hours, tickets and transport before visiting.
