The flagship small-group tour of our city florence tour Michelangelo takes you to the Accademia, where you’ll be able to admire one of the world’s most famous sculptures: David. This larger-than-life marble figure depicts the biblical hero that killed Goliath and came to symbolize the defense of civil liberties embodied in the Florentine Republic. Your guide will tell you all about the artist who carved it and explain what made the statue so important in history.

After leaving the Accademia, your guide will show you around some of Florence’s other top attractions. Your group will visit the Uffizi Gallery without waiting in line, and you’ll see paintings by some of the greatest artists in Renaissance history: Raphael, Botticelli, and Caravaggio are just a few of the pieces you’ll be able to enjoy.

You’ll also get the chance to see the Cathedral of Florence and its octagonal baptistery, which are both breathtaking masterpieces of Renaissance architecture. Inside, you’ll find beautiful internal mosaics and priceless works of art, including Ghiberti’s bronze doors that were created for the baptistery.

Another highlight of this tour is a trip up to Piazzale Michelangelo for a picture-perfect view of the city from the most famous hilltop in town. Then, you’ll walk along the famous Via Calzaiuoli and through the historic Mercato della Paglia where you can rub the nose of a “porcellino” (pig) for luck.

You’ll even be able to see the Ponte Vecchio from a different perspective on this tour: you’ll take a ride on a traditional “Barcaiolo” boat along the Arno River, where your skipper will slide his boat under some of the city’s most iconic bridges. After an unforgettable experience, you’ll hop back into your private transport and head back to your cruise ship.
