Florence in a Day

Discover Florence’s top historical landmarks in just one unforgettable day. Skip-the-line tickets ensure you spend less time waiting and more time marvelling at Michelangelo’s David and the masterpieces inside the Uffizi Gallery. As you explore, enjoy a leisurely walk through the city’s picturesque streets, passing iconic sights like the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, the Leather Market, and more.

Bypass the long entry lines at two of Florence’s most iconic museums—the Accademia and the Uffizi Galleries—and immerse yourself in the city’s rich cultural heritage on a fully guided walking tour.

Begin with a visit to the Accademia Gallery to meet Florence’s most celebrated resident: Michelangelo’s David. With pre-booked tickets and a reserved entry time, you’ll head straight inside to admire this masterpiece without the wait. Your expert art historian guide will share fascinating insights about David, Michelangelo’s creative process, and other lesser-known works that are often overlooked.

Next, follow a specially curated route through the Uffizi Gallery, exploring an extraordinary collection of artwork from the Middle Ages through the Renaissance and beyond. Discover how painting evolved from stiff religious icons to vivid, emotional expressions of the human spirit.

After your museum visits, step out into Florence’s enchanting streets for a guided walking tour of the historic city centre. Begin at the magnificent Florence Cathedral and marvel at Brunelleschi’s Dome from the outside, while your guide shares the story of its groundbreaking design and the forgotten techniques revived to bring it to life.

Continue your journey through charming alleys and art-filled squares, uncovering the stories behind landmarks like the Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, and more. You'll also enjoy a short lunch break—though lunch isn't included, your guide will offer excellent local recommendations.

By the end of this full-day experience, you'll have explored Florence’s top attractions, uncovered hidden gems, and gained a deeper understanding of the city that gave birth to the Renaissance—all in just one unforgettable day.
