Description

Begin your day with a guided visit to the Accademia Gallery, home to Michelangelo’s legendary David. Standing over five meters tall, this marble icon captures the spirit and ambition of Renaissance Florence. As your guide shares fascinating insights, you’ll also discover Michelangelo’s unfinished Prigioni and St. Matthew, revealing the artist’s extraordinary creative vision. Wander among paintings by Botticelli, Uccello, and Andrea del Sarto — timeless masterpieces that bring to life the glory of the city’s golden age.

As the afternoon light softens, follow your guide through Florence’s historic heart and into the Oltrarno, where artisans still shape leather, wood, and gold by hand. Walk past the Loggia del Porcellino, Piazza del Limbo, and the iconic Ponte Vecchio, uncovering stories of the Medici family, ancient trades, and centuries-old legends. Each narrow street and hidden courtyard reveals another layer of the city’s character — lively, mysterious, and deeply human.

No Florentine evening is complete without savoring its flavors. Enjoy a Tuscan tasting and a glass of wine served from one of the city’s historic wine windows — a tradition dating back to the 17th century. Feel the rhythm of local life in Piazza Santo Spirito, where artisans, musicians, and locals gather as night falls. Between art, history, and taste, this tour captures everything that makes Florence unforgettable — a perfect mix of elegance and authenticity.
