Your experience begins in the very heart of Florence, where you meet a friendly, professional local guide and set off on an engaging walking tour. From the first steps, you are taken on a journey through time as your guide shares stories, anecdotes, and secrets that bring the city’s history to life, starting from the visible traces of its Roman foundation in 59 BC, through the Middle Ages, and into the glorious Renaissance when Florence was ruled by the powerful Medici family. As you walk through the historic center, you admire Florence’s most iconic squares and monuments, passing noble palaces and traditional artisan shops. The itinerary leads you to the spectacular Piazza della Signoria, dominated by the majestic Palazzo Vecchio, and continues to the elegant Renaissance Palazzo Strozzi and the picturesque Ponte Vecchio. You then explore the Medici district, discovering the ancient Basilica of San Lorenzo, the Medici Chapels, and Palazzo Medici-Riccardi, the family’s first residence, while learning about the influence the Medici had on the city’s art and culture.

The walking tour culminates at the breathtaking monumental complex of the Duomo, where you stand in awe before the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, Brunelleschi’s famous Dome, Giotto’s refined Bell Tower, and the beautiful Romanesque Baptistery of San Giovanni. After the guided exploration of the city, you continue your cultural immersion with priority entrance to the Uffizi Gallery, one of the most renowned museums in the world, with immediate ticket redemption assistance at the entrance. Inside the Uffizi Gallery, you enjoy the visit at your own pace, taking time to admire extraordinary masterpieces by Botticelli, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raffaello, Giotto, Cimabue, Masaccio, and many others. To further enrich your experience, an app included in the tour provides unlimited access to self-guided mobile itineraries around Florence, complete with multilingual audio commentary and thematic routes, including the special “Florence seen by Dante.” This combination of guided storytelling and independent discovery allows you to fully enjoy the art, history, and culture of Florence in total freedom.
