Ciao people!

Did you know that the world’s first museum was born in Florence? Or that Florence holds 40% of Italy’s artistic heritage in its museums and streets?

Florence itself is an open-air museum: in the streets you can admire many ancient works of art, yet the majority of the city’s original pieces are found inside the museums, reason why the city houses such a rich museum network. The museums in Florence are designed in such a way to display artworks in a clear and engaging manner, where visitors can experience more intimate contact with the work and observe pictorial details or an artist’s sculptural techniques up close.

This itinerary is catered to those who want to get to know Florence through the city and its museums.

The tour engages closely with the art of great Florentine artists that once called this city home – Leonardo, Michelangelo, Botticelli – and is a chance to hear the fascinating stories behind their incredible works of art.  

The tour is divided into two sections with the luch break: Tour in the historic center of Florence, stopping by the most important points such as the cathedral, known as the Duomo, and a visit to museum of your choice. Given the numerous options, the visit to the museum can be tailored according to your specific interests. (See the museums in here).

The most visited museums in Florence and I large suggest you are the Accademia (Accademy of fine Arts of Florence - where you’ll find the David and others work of art by Michelangelo), the Uffizi Gallery (Museum dedicated to the Renaissance paints, housing work of arts by Botticelli, Leonardo, Michelangelo and many others) and the Santa Croce Basilica (where you can visit the tombs of Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Galileo and many others).

 Since Florence was home to many illustrious artists and characters of the past, the city holds an exclusive original collection of the works produced by these incredible historic figures. Their lasting legacy is diffused throughout the city in its museums, churches and palaces, and is not to be missed!

The tour can be for a individual visitor or group.
