Florence Walking Tour

After admiring Vasari's Corridor, you'll enter the Piazza della Signoria, Dante's old neighborhood. Next, you'll encounter a series of breathtaking examples of Renaissance architecture before arriving at the cathedral to admire Brunelleschi's dome, Giotto's bell tower and Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise at the baptistery.
Along the way, your expert guide will discuss the rich history of the Renaissance. You'll hear tales about the lives of the famous artists, as well as the notorious Medici family who financed the Renaissance movement, and you’ll learn how life changed forever during this epic period.
Accademia Gallery

After enjoying an in-depth discussion of David, you will also have time to see Michelangelo's Slaves, writhing captives in stone who appear to struggle to free themselves from their imprisoning blocks of marble.
