Florence Private Tours

4 hours

The most requested walking tour of Florence, so that you can see main spots. During this tour you will learn about Renaissance, about Medici family, how they came to power and how their family degraded and died out. We will discover how the city developed and changed during centuries.

The Duomo Complex

This private guided tour will show you the religious centre of Florence with the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, the Brunelleschi’s Dome, the symbol of Florence and masterpiece of Renaissance architecture and the wonderful interior of the Baptistery and its mosaics. We will visit the Museum del Duomo, one of the most beautiful museums in the world since the reopening in 2015, with the original door “Gate of Paradise” by Lorenzo Ghiberti and the famous Pietà by Michelangelo.

The Essence of Florence

Our walking tour focuses on the main historical districts of the center of Florence. We start from the religious center, admiring the exterior of the Duomo complex, composed of the Cathedral with the famous Dome by Brunelleschi, the Giotto Bell-tower and the Romanesque Baptistry with the Gates of Paradise. Then we will go on towards the political area, with the Signoria palace, the Uffizi palace and the New Market. After crossing the Old Bridge, we reach the Oltrarno, seat of the Pitti Palace.

The David Experience

View all Art, Culture, & Historical in Florence

The story of David would inspire many sculptures and paintings during the Italian Renaissance, with Christian themes being prevalent within art at this time. It would be the specific tale of David overcoming Goliath that would be featured most often, as artists looked to harness this powerful tale as inspiration for their own work. Even just within this single art movement, there would be many different interpretations, and each generation would influence the next with their own innovations.

Secrets of Renaissance Florence Tour

Whether it’s your first visit to Florence or you’re coming back to see old friends (Michelangelo, Leonardo, etc..) this is a great opportunity to see the main historical and architectural sites of Medieval and Renaissance Florence. Together we can make our way through the side streets of the city center where we come across true masterpieces of art and architecture literally hiding in plain view of the visitor. Florence is an open-air museum just waiting to be revealed.

We will take you with the sidecar to know our Florence, not the usual one in Piazza Signoria, Uffizi, etc ... No, the one where we grew up and that we still attend today; the one of the workshops of artisans and small keepers of Florentine culinary traditions: the so-called Oltrarno...

I really enjoyed Christiana thoughtfulness and kindness. Unfortunately we had to cancel but she was a trooper and was saddened we didn’t have time to meet up with her. Next time Christina!
