Florence is one of my absolute favorite cities in the world. It doesn't matter how many times I go to Florence, I always discover something new. I never get bored with Florence, and I never feel like I'm done. Florence is magic. Here is a list of 10 things that you absolutely MUST do when you are in Florence: 1. Go For An Early Walk. Get up early (at least once while you are there) and go for a long walk. Florence gets so packed with tourists during the day and into the night that it becomes almost impossible to get one on one time with her statues, her famous doorways, the great piazzas. During the day you can hardly ever snap a photo without other travelers getting in the way. But in the early mornings the streets are empty, and she is all yours. Read more about it here 2. Eat Cinghiale One of the local Tuscan delicacies is Cinghiale, or wild boar. Every restaurant serves it, made to their own recipe, and it's fantastic. 3. Visit Santa Croce Church Florence is full of amazing churches with amazing art, and (to me) Santa Croce is one of the most spectacular. Santa Croce Church in the shadow of the early moring (The art inside Santa Croce )considered to be some of the most impressive church art in all of Florence. From Giotto's fresco cycles to Cimabue's breathtaking Triumphal Cross, the art in Santa Croce is spectacular. It is also the home to Florence's most impressive tombs, the final resting place of Michelangelo, Rossini, Dante Aligheri, Ghiberti, Galileo and Machiavelli. Largely overlooked by tourists, the church at Santa Croce is an absolute must.

Take Long Walks At Night. Just as early morning walks are a must in Florence, so are long evening walks after the sun has gone down. One of the great loves of my life lives in Florence, ( if you are going to fall in love, it might as well be with an Italian, right?) and for many years evenings in Florence were synonymous with long strolls around the city, taking in all the incredible palazzi and churches, the magnificent doorways, the statues, the very essence of Florence, bathed in the moonlight. Find a hotel in Florence As beautiful as she is by day, Santa Maria Del Fiore (the Duomo) is just mesmerizing by night. Florence is pure magic by night. 6. Look Up While taking night time strolls you have the opportunity to see frescos and incredible ceilings hidden to you during the day, but visible by night when people turn their lights on. When we would be out at night (and still even now, as the dearest of friends) he always tells me "Look up!" as we walk by breathtaking frescos on the upper floors of the various palazzi, scattered everywhere in the city.

Take A Tour Of Somewhere Special When I was in Florence this past December I was incredibly lucky to have a private tour of the secret passages and hidden rooms on the Palazzo Vecchio. It was so awe-inspiring that I immediately promised myself that every time I go back to Florence I will take a little tour of some place special. This medieval city is so full of hidden corridors and passageways, there is art up in the rafters, there is art inside the walls. It's rich history of intrigue and treachery and treasures means there are endlessly fascinating secrets to be discovered. The perfect way to experience them is with an art historian filling you in on all the stories, bringing them to life for you. Magic. 8. Eat The Best Sandwich Of Your Life A couple of blocks from the Palazzo Vecchio and the Uffizi on the Via Dei Neri you will find Osteria All' Antico Vinaio It is super easy to find because they have a trattoria on either side of the road, and until late each night there are always locals spilling out onto the sidewalk with giant focaccia sandwiches in one hand and big glasses of lusty red wine in the other, while their brethren queue patiently in lines that weave down the street, waiting for as long as it takes to get their turn at the counter. I guarantee you will never have had a sandwich quite like these before! You can custom order, but I learned from the people waiting with me in the line and the others having spasms or gastronomic delight as they leaned against the walls or sat on the curb eating their panini that the way to tackle this beast was to order from the posted list of favorites. (90% of the patrons were all ordering the same thing, so I figured I would just have what they did. Perhaps one of the greatest decisions I've ever made.) This is no nitrite, no nitrate, no Monsanto, fresh, local, real food. You won't find anything as crass as a soda fountain here but you will find a selection of local red wines that they sell by the bottle or by the glass. And just how much do you think the sandwich of the century will cost you? €5. It's the bargain of the century! 9. Explore Oltrarno Literally "the other side of the Arno", there is so much to see when you cross the river. You have the big sights, the Pitti Palace, the Boboli Gardens, Piazzale Michelangelo and San Spirito with its Brunelleschi designed interior, but you also have endless medieval streets full of antique stores and local artisans. As you wander through you'll find fewer and fewer tourists, which means the price of everything goes down. It's easy to spend days on end losing yourself in Florence's neighborhoods - there is so much to discover. While wandering find your way to Santa Maria Del Carmine. The Cappella Brancacci houses a renaissance fresco cycle that changed the course of western art. Begun by Masaccio and Masolino in around 1424 and finished 50 years later by Filippino Lippi, this cycle uses a then revolutionary technique employing single point perspective. Look to the upper left entrance pier to Adam and Eve and notice the dramatic way their bodies reflect a light that seems to emanate from within the world of the painting, but outside the frame. It is magnificent. 10. Buy Leather Florence is world famous for it's amazing leather goods. If you are not shopping at the Gucci and Prada price point, then this is the city for you! You can buy beautifully made leather bags, belts, luggage, wallets and jackets all over Florence, especially at the San Lorenzo market, but you have to either know what you're buying, or who you are buying it from to make sure you are getting good quality and not a Made-In-China rip off. For years and years now I have been buying leather goods from my very dear friend Jimmy Ahmed of Jimmy's Leather Collection. I've sent so many people to Jimmy over the years, and everyone is always super happy to have gone there. Read more about buying leather in Florence here Bonus I'm giving you a bonus tip, because I can't refine it down to just 10 tips... Eat Panforte Panforte with coffee makes for a perfect mid-morning snack This is actually a Sienese delicacy but you can find it all over Florence. Not a bread, and yet not quite a cake panforte is a divine flourless combination of nuts, dried fruits, honey and spices. My favorite type is Mandorlata. You do so much walking all day every day in Florence, it's easy to justify a small slice with your morning cappuccino. Find flights to Florence with Trip Advisor
