Your Itinerary

Cupola del Brunelleschi

Start with a one hour guided tour to the Cupola. The guide will talk you through the exterior view of the Cupola, but the only way to see the inside of the dome up close and enjoy the extraordinary view of Florence is to climb its 463 steps. On your way up, discover the design of the Cupola and how it was built by Brunelleschi in 1418, find out why the corridors are so narrow, and admire Giorgio Vasari's frescoes of the Last Judgment (1572-9). Look down and on the base, just above the drum, you'll see the balcony started, but never finished, in 1507; hear about the fascinating story of the balcony and the unfinished eighth side from the guide. Once you climb to the top of the Cupola, get enchanted by the panoramic view of the Florence city in front of your eyes. The guide will talk about the history and art of this Duomo Square and answer any of your questions about Duomo.

Admission Included

Piazza della Repubblica

Later in the afternoon, you'll meet the guide in front of the Hard Rock Cafe (See below in the Meeting Point) to start the walking tour. After meeting up with the guide, you will receive an insight of the history of this Renaissance city and how this incredible cultural movement of the Renaissance transformed not only Florence but eventually the rest of Europe. The guide will start off with Piazza Della Republica, the main square of Florence that marks the center of the City. After a little talk of history & the changes of Piazza Republica since its origin, you will walk straight to the marvelous piece of art, the Piazza Della Duomo. A showstopper of Filippo Brunelleschi, Giotto, Arnolfo & Francesco Talenti.

Florence

Finally, the guide will talk you through the artists, architects, thinkers, and political figures who led to the Renaissance and were born on the fertile soil in and around Florence, within the same century.
