Itinerary
Meet your guide in central Florence
Your tour begins in central Florence, where you'll meet your guide at a central meeting point (exact location on your voucher). With a maximum of nine guests, your guide has plenty of time to get to know everyone, answer questions, and set the stage for the incredible art you're about to see.
Visit the Accademia Gallery with pre-reserved tickets
Breeze past the crowds and step inside the Accademia. Your guide sets the stage for what you're about to see, sharing how this gallery became home to Florence's most famous sculpture and why Michelangelo's work changed art forever.
Michelangelo's David and the Prisoners
Stand before David while your guide brings the story to life—how a 26-year-old sculptor transformed a rejected marble block into a symbol of Florence. Then explore the Prisoners, unfinished works that reveal the figures Michelangelo believed were trapped inside the stone.
Stroll past the Duomo and Via Calzaiuoli
Next, walk through Florence's Renaissance heart. Pass the towering Duomo with its terracotta dome and stroll down Via Calzaiuoli while your guide shares stories of rivalry, genius, and the creative explosion that defined this era.
Pause in Piazza della Signoria
Your guide brings you to the square where David once stood and where the Medici ruled. With a small group, it's easy to ask questions and dig deeper into the politics, art, and power struggles that unfolded right here.
Head inside the Uffizi Gallery with timed entry tickets
Your guide leads you straight into one of the world's most celebrated museums. Stand before Botticelli's Birth of Venus and Primavera, Raphael's Madonna with the Goldfinch, and Michelangelo's Tondo Doni while your guide unpacks the myths, symbolism, and genius behind each work.
Your tour finishes inside the Uffizi Gallery
After 3.5 hours of art, history, and storytelling, your guided experience wraps up. You're free to linger and explore more at your own pace, or step back into Florence's sunlit streets with a deeper understanding of the Renaissance.
