After breakfast, you will enjoy a small group tour to visit the beautiful city of Florence and, it’s a must, the Uffizi Gallery.
Discover the artistic soul of Florence with a highlights tour of the Uffizi Gallery, one of the most important art museums in the world. Accompanied by an expert local guide, explore a carefully curated selection of masterpieces that tell the story of the Italian Renaissance, bringing to life the genius of artists such as Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael. As you move through the elegant corridors of the former Medici palace, your guide will provide engaging insights into the artworks, the historical context, and the powerful families who shaped Florence’s cultural legacy. This immersive experience allows you to appreciate the beauty and significance of the gallery without feeling overwhelmed, offering a deeper understanding of the art and history that made Florence a cradle of creativity.
In the late evening, join a small group to visit the Duomo. Entering with a skip-the-line ticket, with your passionate guide, first focus on Florence Duomo: the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, which is also often considered the symbol of the city. Discover masterpieces such as Paolo Uccello’s clock, Vasari’s frescoes and Bandinelli’s marble choir. Then, begin your ascent to Florence Heaven: the staircase climb, through narrow and open air corridors that have been closed to the public for centuries, will be rewarded by an incomparable view of the city from the Duomo Terraces, on the cathedral rooftop. A skywalk that will feel like floating between the city landscape, with its ancient roofs and towers, and the imposing Dome standing just a few meters above your head. This is an exclusive visit to the Terraces, which are normally not open to the public. Then, if you feel like continuing your climb, you can reach the top of Brunelleschi's Cupola. Skipping the endless long lines, you will have the opportunity to reach the 91-metre-high panoramic viewpoint for the highest level of this Florentine Heaven and breathtaking views. Take your time and enjoy an unforgettable sunset above the city.
