Florence Walking Tour

A 3-hour guided walk through the heart of Florence, tracing the history, art, and stories behind the birthplace of the Renaissance.

We'll start in Piazza della Repubblica and move through the historic center — past Orsanmichele and the Mercato del Porcellino — down to the Arno River and the iconic Ponte Vecchio. From there, we'll continue through Piazzale degli Uffizi to Piazza della Signoria, Florence's historic political center and an open-air showcase of Renaissance sculpture, then wander the medieval streets near Dante's House before arriving at Piazza del Duomo to take in the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, Brunelleschi's dome, Giotto's Bell Tower, and the Baptistery of San Giovanni.

We'll end at the Accademia Gallery for a guided visit culminating in one of the great masterpieces of Western art: Michelangelo's original David.
