We will abandon the noise of the city and the noisy tourists to listen to the peace of the river and enjoy the treasures of Florence from a dreamlike dimension.
What will we see along our calm and slow route as the flow of the river?
From the bed of the Arno, in the heart of the historic center, we will pass in front of the Uffizi Gallery and the important buildings that are reflected on the surface of the river, we will cross the Ponte Vecchio, the only medieval bridge that survived the Second World War, the iconic symbol of the city of Florence.
We will then pass under the Ponte di Santa Trinita, rebuilt after the Second World War with its own sixteenth-century stones recovered from the river, as well as the seventeenth-century statues of the four seasons. From there we will also see the medieval Palazzo Spini Ferroni, historic headquarters of the Salvatore Ferragamo fashion house.
It is exciting to pass under the ancient bridges, it gives you the vertigo of fully recovering the historical moment of their construction, while out there, beyond the riverbed, people make a noise that does not reach here, where we are, suspended in a timeless moment.
What is SUP?
Standing Up Paddle, surfing with an oar, simple, also suitable for those who are not familiar with surfing or with the sport in general. It is carried out using a board similar to the one used for surfing, but larger and you row with a single oar. It is a safe sport, as it is carried out with the careful supervision of the instructor and it is impossible to fall into the water, unless you want to dive in for a swim!
