A morning guided tour of Florence including a viewing of Michelangelo's David.
This year tickitaly.com have partnered with a long-established Florentine tour operator in order to be able to offer a varied range of Florence guided tours. In this case it is a morning city tour lasting approximately three hours (starting at 9.30 AM).
The tour begins with a drive up the romantic Viale dei Colli to Piazzale Michelangelo, a strategic viewpoint that offers open views across the splendid skyline of Florence to the hills beyond. Then it's a drive back down the hill and into the historic city centre for a walking tour of the area around the cathedral (Duomo). This takes in the Baptistery with the famous Porta del Paradiso, the cathedral with the magnificent Cupola (dome) by Brunelleschi, and Giotto’s bell tower (campanile).
After this it's a short walk to the Accademia where you'll bypass the queues and head straight in to view Michelangelo's famous David. The tour ends here, but you are free to stay inside the gallery as long as you wish.
* This tour is available all year round (excluding 25th December and 1st January) but please note that should you opt for a Monday tour then you shan't be visiting the Accademia and David (it's always closed on Mondays), but either the Bargello Museum or the Medici Chapel instead.
Tours are available in English, Italian, French, German and Spanish; children under the age of 2 pay nothing, children between 2 and 8 qualify for reduced price tickets.
