Start off the day with a visit to one of the world’s most renowned art galleries
Begin the day by meeting your friendly and knowledgeable guide in the city’s historic centre. You’ll take a short walk through Piazza del Duomo to see the cathedral, Baptistery and Giotto’s Bell Tower before making your first stop: The Accademia Gallery.

Florence by bike is one of the best ways to see the city. This tour will take you less time than walking tours, and you’ll also get off the beaten tourist track! You’ll go where the buses don’t fit, through pedestrian areas and through tiny little streets. As well as the historic centre, you’ll cycle through the Oltrarno District and find lots of spots from where to admire the city.
