Short Description
Journey to the heart of Renaissance Florence, exploring galleries and piazzas on a private walking tour. Gaze at Brunelleschi’s magnificent Duomo and see Michelangelo’s David at the Accademia. Visit the elegant Piazza della Signoria and admire the beautiful views of the city from the Ponte Vecchio.
Begin your walking tour at Florence Cathedral, whose dome dominates the skyline of the city. Learn about the fascinating history of this impressive building, which has become one of the most iconic symbols of the city.
The Duomo was the work of the great architect Brunelleschi, who had to convince the skeptical overseers that he was capable of this incredible feat of engineering, which involved building one dome inside another. Built at the beginning of the 12th century, the Baptistery is one of the oldest buildings in Florence. The Baptistery is best known for its exquisite bronze doors, the “Gates of Paradise”, which are widely acknowledged as one of the most beautiful artworks in Florence. When you get up close to Michelangelo's David on your Accademia tour, you’ll be left in little doubt that the sculpture's reputation as the most famous statue in the world is fully justified. Saving time with a skip-the-line entry ticket, and enjoy your time at Accademia as your guide leads the way.
Your expert guide will tell you the story of David’s creation, giving you an even deeper appreciation of Michelangelo’s masterpiece, before showing you some lesser-known but equally beautiful works in the Accademia.
Learn about Michelangelo’s Slaves, some of the most moving artworks of the Renaissance; these unfinished sculptures depict bodies struggling to escape from their marble prisons and were originally intended to adorn the magnificent tomb of Pope Julius II in Rome's St. Peter's Basilica.
Walk through some of the most beautiful parts of the city, crossing the ancient Ponte Vecchio and strolling through Piazza della Signoria, learning how art and politics were always closely intertwined in the Renaissance city
