What to expect

  1. Gallerie Degli Uffizi

    30 min

    Delve deeper into Florence’s rich history with a visit to all the most important sights of the city. With an expert, English-speaking guide and audio headset, hear the city come to life before you as you listen to a fun and interesting commentary about the art and architecture found throughout Florence.

  2. Ponte Vecchio

    30 min

    With your guide leading the way you’ll visit all the most important sights, starting off from the iconic Ponte Vecchio bridge, the Uffizi Courtyard (from the outside), the sculptures at Piazza Signoria and the gold doors of the Baptistery.

  3. Piazza del Duomo

    20 min

    We’ll visit the Duomo Square, where the magnificent Florence Cathedral is, known locally as Il Duomo, for the stunning dome that crowns it. This incredible feat of engineering required a whole new process for its construction, which your guide will describe as you view it from the outside.
    The entrance to the Duomo is free and you can visit independently if you wish, as the guide provided you with a full explanation of its inside and outside features.

  4. Galleria dell'Accademia

    1 hour

    End your guided tour with a skip-the-line entrance to the Accademia Gallery, home to Michelangelo’s 'David.' With the help of an expert, English-speaking guide and a Skip-the-Line Access at the Accademia, you’ll be able to spot the sculptures emerging from the rock and learn about Michelangelo’s technique in sculpting – an art form he considered far above painting.
