Explore Florence's iconic landmarks with a guided tour of its historic center, including exclusive access to the Duomo, the scenic Duomo Terraces, and Brunelleschi's Dome for unforgettable panoramic views.
Begin your unforgettable Florence tour with a guided exploration of the historic center, where you'll discover some of the city's most iconic monuments. Start in Piazza della Repubblica, the vibrant heart of Florence, before heading to the charming Loggia del Porcellino, home to the famous bronze boar statue, a symbol of good luck.
Continue through the bustling streets to Piazza della Signoria, a square steeped in history and adorned with impressive sculptures, including a replica of Michelangelo's David. From there, walk to the Chiesa di Orsanmichele, a unique church that once served as a granary, now famous for its impressive exterior niches filled with statues of Renaissance masters.
Strolling along Via Calzaiuoli, the elegant shopping street that connects the historic center, you'll arrive at Piazza del Duomo, where the magnificent Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore stands. With its impressive dome and intricate façade, it's a sight to behold.
Here, the visit takes an extraordinary turn: you enter the Duomo without waiting in line. Your expert guide will delve into the history and art of this architectural marvel, highlighting masterpieces such as Paolo Uccello's clock, Vasari's frescoes, and Bandinelli's marble choir. The Cathedral, designed by Arnolfo di Cambio, is the third largest church in the world and a symbol of Florence's rich heritage.
After exploring the cathedral, you'll begin your ascent to Florence's Paradise. Climb through narrow open-air corridors, previously hidden from the public, to reach the exclusive Duomo Terraces. From this 32-meter-high observation deck, you'll enjoy unparalleled views of the city's ancient rooftops and towers, in the shadow of Brunelleschi's Dome.
Your guide will explain the genius behind the construction of the dome, a feat of engineering that has stood the test of time and remains a dominant feature of Florence's skyline. Discover how Brunelleschi revolutionized architecture with his innovative methods, creating a self-supporting dome that has become an enduring symbol of the city.
Finally, for a unique experience, climb to the top of Brunelleschi's Dome. At 91 meters high, this panoramic viewpoint offers stunning 360-degree views of Florence, allowing you to see the entire city from the highest point in the historic center.
