The tour of the city will start at one of the most beautiful squares in all of Europe, the Piazza Del Duomo. You can admire the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore from here, along with its renowned dome and bell tower. Built in 1436, the cathedral features polychrome marble panels in various hues of pink and green, bordered by white. The octagonal Florence Baptistry is another highlight of the area.

Your guide will delve into stories of the Medici family, one of the most influential and powerful families of medieval Italy. As patrons of art, they financed the construction of St. Peter’s Basilica and the Santa Maria del Fiore in addition to supporting some of the most renowned artists of the time. You will visit the San Lorenzo neighborhood, home to the first of the Medici as well as Medici’s Chapel, which is the final resting place of numerous famous figures.
