Florence with Kids: Our Favourite Tuscany Base for the Perfect Family Holiday

"Can we have another gelato?" That was probably the question we heard most during our time in Florence. And honestly? We couldn't blame the girls. Between wandering through centuries-old streets, crossing the famous Ponte Vecchio and discovering yet another incredible ice cream shop, Florence has a way of making every day feel like a little adventure. If you're dreaming of Italy, chances are Rome, Venice or Lake Garda are already on your list. But let us tell you a little secret: Florence completely stole our hearts. Not only is it one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, it's also the perfect base for exploring Tuscany. Think rolling vineyards, medieval villages, endless sunflower fields, delicious food and those postcard-worthy roads that make you want to pull over every five minutes just to admire the view. This is exactly how we spent our family holiday—and we'd do it again in a heartbeat.
