    Perched on the highest point in Florence, just above Piazzale Michelangelo, we will reach the breathtaking Basilica of San Miniato al Monte. This 1,000-year-old Romanesque masterpiece is famous for its striking green-and-white marble facade and its quiet, mystical atmosphere. We will make a stop here to enjoy a panoramic view that is even higher and less crowded than Piazzale Michelangelo. You'll have the chance to step inside to admire its spectacular, light-filled architecture, its unique mosaic-decorated apse, and the historic cemetery surrounding it.

    We will stop at the enchanting Giardino delle Rose, a peaceful terraced park nestled on the hillside just below Piazzale Michelangelo.
