Itinerary

1. Galleria dell'Accademia
Embark on a guided tour that includes a visit to the extraordinary statue of David at the Florence Galleria dell'Academia museum, where you can admire every detail of Michelangelo’s masterpiece that took him more than 2 years to finish. Before Michelangelo was given the task of sculpting David's statue, other famous artists, including Leonardo da Vinci, were consulted to take on the mission.
Duration: 60 mins
2. Duomo
Marvel at the famous Duomo of Florence, the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. Being one of the largest Duomo structures ever constructed, Florence Duomo took almost two centuries to be completed by three different architects. This is the reason why the Florence Duomo is a combination of three different architectural styles: Gothic, Romanesque, and Renaissance.
Duration: 30 mins
3. Piazza della Signoria
Explore the most spectacular square in Florence, Piazza della Signoria. It is the main point of origin of the Florentine Republic and the political focus of the city. Piazza della Signoria can be considered an open-air museum that displays an excellent collection of antique and Renaissance sculptures, including the Medici lions. Together with Piazza della Signoria, you will visit the courtyard of Florence city hall, Palazzo Vecchio, which is richly decorated with massive paintings on the ceiling and harmoniously curated proportioned columns. It is also where the David Statue was originally located before being moved to the inside of the Galleria dell'Academia museum.
Duration: 30 mins
4. Ponte Vecchio
Visit the Ponte Vecchio Bridge, one of the most symbolic bridges in the world. It is in Ponte Vecchio that the bankruptcy concept was introduced, which translated into “broken desk/broken table” (''banca rotta'') in Italian to describe the act that the merchants’ table on Ponte Vecchio was destroyed if he was not able to pay back his debt. Unlike all other bridges that were destroyed during World War II, it is said that Hitler gave his direct order to not destroy Ponte Vecchio during the German occupation of the town.
Duration: 30 mins
5. Mercato Centrale
Discover the central market of Florence, which was fully renovated in the early 2010s. Find a collection of the most famous local food specialties in Florence, from the legendary Tuscan wine to the most famous street food of the city: lampredotto. Depending on the time of the tours, choose between local specialties, a glass of wine, or Italian gelato. Get the best advice on what to know about the fantastic but also complex cuisine of Florence from your guide.
