Florence
This tour will take you to the city where Renaissance was born. The driver will bring you to the city centre and you will have short distance to all main monuments. You need to see the Duomo Cathedral and Giotto’s bell tower, stroll the piazza Signoria and cross the Ponte Vecchio, “The old bridge”, one of the most recognized symbols of Florence. The bridge is lined with small jewellery shops. Also check out the central market and San Lorenzo market, the first one full of Tuscan delicacies like wine and olive oil, the last one all kind of leather goods and souvenirs. You won’t have time to visit all museums in Florence. Remember to book at least one of them, like the world-famous Uffizi where you can see Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Botticelli. If you already visited it, go to Galleria dell’Accademia, it is home to one of the world’s most impressive works of art: Michelangelo’s “David.” At 17 feet (5.2 meters) tall, the famous statue of the biblical hero is an overwhelming sight and a masterpiece of Renaissance art. If you are a fan of Dante, there is a museum and the church where his loved Beatrice is buried. After a busy day take a drink in Piazza Signoria before going back to Rome.
