- Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on March 13, 2023.
Florence is the city that pulled Europe out of the Middle Ages and into the modern world. Join Rick as he reviews the highlights and uncovers the secrets of the city that kicked off the Renaissance. With the statues of Michelangelo, the dome of Brunelleschi, the gelato of your dreams, and artisans busy at work just across the Arno River, Florence is a festival of travel thrills. After two visits to Florence in 2021, many unforgettable meals there, and researching both his "Art of Europe" TV series and his new Italy for Food Lovers book, Rick will have much to share including where to find the city's great art, which Tuscan dishes to indulge in, and how the pandemic impacted the city you'll experience today. #RickSteves #MondayNightTravel

I did not realize, that when I was first starting to travel for fun that your show was new. You gave me the guts to travel without all the support given to me by the people who I worked for. For nearly twenty years I had traveled far and wide as a merchant marine officer. In ports the ship’s agents took care of the crew. On my first vacation trip, to Greece, as I stepped off the plane and realized that there was no ship at the dock to run back to, it was pretty frightening. After that I continued to travel both for pleasure and for non seagoing jobs between shipping out. Your shows,guides and podcasts made sure that I was never frightened again. After another twenty years of going to sea, I retired and traveled the world for two years before COVID stopped me. I settled down in a small mountain city in Mexico to wait things out. Now your podcasts are getting me over my new fears. I am pretty much the sort of person who has never met a stranger. Touring alone is my bag. Your guide to England is great. I have booked my flights to spend a month there and am using the guide to plan my itinerary. And to think that just last month I was saying to a family member that I didn’t know if or when I would travel again.
Coming from the Czech Republic, I very much appreciate your decision to rename the Central Europe section! Well done!
Try the Meiomi Cabernet Sauvignon. I’m not saying it will change your life, but it will make it better.
When you go out to dinner with a tour guide, who pays for the dinner? Do you each pay your own way?
I love and already have one of your KEEP ON TRAVELIN' t-shirts when it was half priced. I'll buy more if/when you make it in additional colors. Txs.
When Rick says he didn’t check a bag, does that mean he’s traveling to Europe with only a carry on (and personal item)?
Yes. Take a carry on plus personal item. Don't bring an extra suitcase to check. Travel light, travel smart!
I’m going to be in Florence in 2 months. I can hardly wait!
Lucky you
have fun!
Hi Rick saw you and signed my book @ LA travel show😊
Distracting seeing his face top right
We'll have to separate this wonderful episode into installments but thank you so much for reintroducing us to one of our favorite places we've ever been. Salute! (Rick's looking very chill today.)
Amazing show! Thanks for another great travel experience. Love it.
Going to Florence in Jan / Feb 25 🇮🇹
@ 27:04 you could/should have pointed out that the artist, Benozzo Gozzoli, is depicted in the fresco. Gozzoli's self-portrait is the orange capped head between the two bearded men.
15:25 Got all correct here except Denmark(thought Norway). Duomo in Milan was the easiest one
Hi Rck~ I am a artist and paint angels, fairys, memaids and Goddesses etc. So My daughter and I had a amazing thing happen in the Duarmo. We were just standing there looking around at the marble floors everywhere. It was pretty empty. ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HEAR A CLICK SOUND! I looked on the floor and there was a PEN!!! From no where! Angels are there for sure!!
I went in January of 2008 and it was absolutely wonderful. No crowds, no lines, and much cheaper than peak.
Rick, it's good you have a 2008 Barbaresco, especially the type you can buy in US almost anywhere. But....if you are talking about Florence, why not drink the appropriate wine... a SanGiovese grape, from Tuscany? Say...Biondi Santi ...at least you promote the local wines. No?
My husband and I saw Rick Steves Europe in Milwaukee. The Milwaukee Symphony and you were fabulous. Can't wait for your return.
there is only one place in the world where everyday life is so completely reflected in the sublime, in a wonderful mix of nature and culture........it is Tuscany.

Beautiful home. Rick is such a nice super knowledgeable gentleman
Looking forward to the series
Just left Florence. Absolutely beautiful. A lot of people, very hot. Wear comfortable shoes and pack your patience. Sitting outside for dinner on a patio having amazing pizza&wine is fun. Walk after and get a gelato and turn any corner and listen to an opera singer or string quartet. Coin had the best coffee/cappuccino. 🇨🇦🍝🍕🍷❤
Thanks. You are the best!
Fantastic thank you
We were there for a week three weeks ago. We visit there every year.
We love you Rick Steves
