Exclusive Vasari Corridor Tour
  • Until not so long ago it seemed almost impossible
    to visit the celebrated Vasari Corridor, due to
    long waiting lists and few available dates during
    the year. Since May 2012 we are offering
    our Vasari Corridor Florence Small Group
    Tour with max 25 participants.

    within its walls, the majority from the
    Renaissance period.

Florence cathedral museum tour
  • The cathedral complex, located in Piazza del
    Duomo, includes the Baptistery and Giotto's
    Campanile. The three buildings are part of the
    UNESCO World Heritage Site covering the historic
    centre of Florence and are a major attraction to
    tourists visiting the region of Tuscany. The
    basilica is one of Italy's largest churches, and
    until development of new structural materials in
    the modern era, the dome was the largest in the
    world. It remains the largest brick dome ever
    constructed.

Piazza del Duomo, Florence
  • The main attraction for visitors to Florence is
    the Piazza del Duomo (Cathedral Square) where
    many of the citys major monuments are located.
    Theres the impressive Duomo with its massive
    dome and adjacent clock tower, the ruins of
    Chiesa di Santa Reparata (the Church of Saint
    Reparata), the Baptistery of Saint John, and the
    Cathedral Museum.

Michelangelo David

Michelangelo David
  • Better than anyone else, Giorgio Vasariintroduces
    in a few words the marvel of one of the greatest
    masterpieces ever created by mankind. At the
    Accademia Gallery, you can admire from a short
    distance the perfection of the most famous statue
    in Florence and, perhaps, in all the
    world Michelangelos David.
  • Michelangelo was only 26 years old in 1501, but
    he was already the most famous and best paid
    artist in his days. He accepted the challenge
    with enthusiasm to sculpt a large scale David and
    worked constantly for over two years to create
    one of his most breathtaking masterpieces of
    gleaming white marble.

Palazzo Pitti

Palazzo Pitti
  • The Palazzo Pitti is a large palace situated in
    Oltrarno, across the river from the historic
    center of Florence. The palace was long the
    residence of Florence's rulers until 1919, when
    it was handed over to the Italian state, which
    transformed the palace into a museum complex.
  • The palazzo is now the largest museum complex in
    Florence. The principal palazzo block, often in a
    building of this design known as the corps de
    logis, is 32,000 square metres.It is divided into
    several principal galleries or museums detailed
    below.
