What to expect
Piazza della Signoria
20m
You will recognize our guide immediately: who doesn’t know the face of His Majesty Michelangelo Buonarroti?
After warmly welcoming the group—and paying special attention to our youngest guests—he will introduce the origins of Florence and explain how, in just a few centuries, it became the cradle of the Renaissance and the birthplace of some of the greatest geniuses in the history of world art. In this square, we will discover a replica of what is probably the most famous—and most breathtaking—statue in the world: Michelangelo’s David.
Ponte Vecchio
40m
We will walk through the Uffizi Square—home to the most visited museum in Italy!—and reach the stunning Ponte Vecchio. From there, we will slowly make our way toward the Mercato Nuovo, where we’ll discover Florence’s very own “Trevi Fountain” - "Il Porcellino"
Church and Museum of Orsanmichele
15m
Before reaching the magnificent Cathedral Square, we will stop to uncover the secrets of Florence’s most extraordinary (and eccentric!) church, where we will come face to face with an “ancestor” of Michelangelo’s iconic David.
15m
Finally, a small (and very sweet!) break: our guide will treat all tour participants to a delicious gelato—quite possibly the best gelato you’ve ever had in your life.
Piazza Del Duomo
30m
The last half hour of the tour will be dedicated to discovering the city’s extraordinary Cathedral (from the outside!), where we will uncover the most hidden—and even frightening—secrets that have shaped Florence for over 2,000 years.
