4.7 · 2045 Reviews
Excellent Quality
Overview
Experience the Tuscan capital's top attractions on a small-group walking tour through Florence. Begin with a timed entry ticket to view Michelangelo's 'David' in the Accademia Gallery and the Duomo. Afterwards, your guide takes you to Piazza della Signoria, an open-air art gallery where Michelangelo's David was originally supposed to stand. Then explore the streets of Florence, taking in landmarks like the Ponte Vecchio bridge, Palazzo della Signoria e Piazza della Repubblica. If you select the VIP David & Duomo option at time of booking, instead of a Florence walking tour, you'll spend more time in the Duomo, getting exclusive access to the Duomo's North Terrace and climbing to the top of the Dome for stunning panoramic views of Florence. If you select the 3 Davids of Florence option at the time of booking, you’ll visit three iconic David sculptures at the Accademia Gallery, Bargello, and Piazza della Signoria with a private art-history-trained guide.

On Sundays, we will not enter the Cathedral of Florence due to Sunday mass. The guide will provide an explanation of the Duomo from the outside. Additionally, entry will not be possible on exceptional days when the Cathedral is closed for liturgical ceremonies or special Duomo holidays; in those cases, your guide will provide the explanation from outside as well.
Due to the religious nature of the Cathedral, all individuals regardless of gender must cover their shoulders and knees. Walks cannot be held responsible for those denied entry.
During Christmas, Easter periods, and liturgical celebrations, due to increased visitor traffic, the Duomo skip-the-line option is not guaranteed. As a result, you may encounter a wait before entering the Duomo.
