Florence: Half-Day City Tour with Michelangelo's David｜Italy

Begin your walking tour of Florence, the capital of the Tuscany region, known as the Cradle of the Renaissance. Breathe in the atmosphere of the medieval streets and artisan workshops as you admire the masterpieces of Leonardo Da Vinci, Botticelli, and Michelangelo, including the famous David located inside the Accademia.

See the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, with its beautiful dome designed by Brunelleschi. Admire the Baptistery and Giotto’s Bell Tower. Continue your walk to Piazza della Signoria, the center of political life in Florence since the 14th century.

Admire Michelangelo’s David (the original is located in the Accademia Gallery) positioned in front of Palazzo Vecchio to symbolize the power of the Florentine Republic. See the sculptures of Adam and Eve and Hercules and Cacus by Baccio Bandinelli, symbolizing the physical power of the Medici family.

Marvel at the Fountain of Neptune and the Loggia dei Lanzi, also called “Loggia della Signoria,” a small open-air museum. In its portals, see various sculptures such as the Rape of the Sabine Women or Perseus with the Head of Medusa.

End your tour at Ponte Vecchio, one of the symbolic places of Florence. Once a meat and fish market, today you can admire the ancient workshops of the masters of Florentine goldsmith art known throughout the world.
