TOUR DESCRIPTION

Florence City Center Private Walking Tour

Learn the true majesty of Florence, on a 3-hour guided tour along the greatest landmarks of the city’s heart and soul. You will see the sites of great stories, as your guide walks you through key locations and buildings that make up Florence’s grand history.

It all begins at Piazza della Signoria, the square at the very heart of Florence. This place is adorned with exquisite statues, and is home to the famous “Old Palace” – a fortress-like town hall that now also serves as an artistic museum.

Once the foundational point of the Florentine Republic, the Old Palace’s impact has radiated outward beyond the dreams of even its original designers. You too will experience that radiance, venturing outward through the city, following the footsteps of expansion and seeing historical landmarks along the way.

You will witness the majesty of the Basilica Santa Maria del Fiore, also known as the Florence Cathedral. This iconic, instantly-recognizable feature of Florence’s skyline will have undoubtedly caught your eye before this point, and on this tour you’ll finally be able to see its elegant red-brick dome up close – in sheer awe of the ceilings towering several hundred feet above you.

This site has been well loved by the people and builders of Florence throughout its history, receiving continuous work and expansions over its 6-century-long lifespan. You will see each upgrade in detail, and thanks to your guide, be empowered to learn the history and legacy of each change. You will know the long and storied history required to build it over the course of hundreds of years. You will learn about the competition to create the best architectural strategy for raising the dome – and all the trials and tribulations that required.

The Basilica Santa Maria del Fiore is a living legacy – bearing a history far beyond its original construction. And it is but one stop on this exquisite, guided tour through the heart of Florence.
