Walk through the history and heritage of the Renaissance
See the building blocks of the Renaissance by visiting the spots where the Medici family transformed the world. The family used their vast power and resources to challenge traditional thinking, ushering in revolutionary art and science that had never been seen before, which still resonates today.
Tick off Florence’s most famous landmarks as you wander through the historic centre
Our tour will take you to a host of Florentine attractions: Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio town hall; The Duomo; the Baptistery with its “Gates of Paradise”, Giotto’s Belltower, Brunelleschi’s Dome; Santa Trinità and Orsanmichele Church; the Ponte Vecchio Bridge. Not only that, you’ll explore famous shopping streets and the Oltrarno, the artisan district. All that working will work up an appetite, so there’s space for a tasty break before the highlight of the tour.
Visit the Accademia Gallery with skip-the-line tickets
Meet your guide and enter the Accademia Gallery museum with fast-track entrance tickets. There, you’ll discover the statue that has come to symbolise the Renaissance: Michelangelo’s David. The 5.17m (17 foot) statue stands in the museum’s central gallery - but there’s plenty more to see too. See Michelangelo’s famously unfinished Prigioni and San Matteo sculptures, as well as masterpieces by Botticelli, Paolo Uccello, Andrea del Sarto and more.
