Overview

Enjoy a walk in the city of beauty discovering the majestic Duomo with its Dome built by Brunelleschi and discover with your guide step by step all the phases of its creation.

When it was built, Santa Maria del Fiore was the largest existing basilica with its 153 meters long and still today it impresses visitors with its majesty.

Giotto’s tower is the Cathedral Bell Tower and its construction is contemporary to the one of the church.

Visit to the Baptistery of Saint John, with its precious mosaics, and the Museum of the Cathedral preserving the original "Gate of Paradise" made by Ghiberti and one of the most touching Michelangelo's Pietá!

Then climb the famous Brunelleschi's Dome, not only a symbol of beauty, but also a magnificent sample of ingenuity and technical expertise.

We have designed this experience to allow participants to admire all these works representing the timeless beauty and ingenuity of Florentine art.

Battistero di San Giovanni
Characterized by the white Carrara and green Prato marble, it is one of the most ancient churches in Florence and gently marks the square of the city Cathedral.

Cupola del Brunelleschi
Florence's Dome is the production of Renaissance genius Filippo Brunelleschi. The construction of Santa Maria del Fiore has met a really challenging and complicated architectural issue: the Dome structure itself. It proved extremely difficult to develop machines capable of working to the Dome heights, never imagined before. It was thanks to Brunelleschi and its ‘double shell structure’ invention that the construction could be finally completed. Inside the Dome it is possible to see up close Giorgio Vasari’s beautiful frescoes. Vasari designed and drafted the extraordinary Judgement, terminated by his student Federico Zuccari in 1579
