The experience

A walking tour through the real Florence locations behind Dan Brown’s novel Inferno.

A 2-hour guided walk through Florence locations that feature in Dan Brown’s novel Inferno, from Palazzo Vecchio and Piazza della Signoria to the Boboli Gardens and other sites tied to the book’s plot, with the guide separating the novel’s fiction from the city’s actual history along the way.

The tour works equally well for readers of the book and for anyone who simply wants a themed walk through some of central Florence’s landmark squares and buildings.
