Overview

On this guided walking tour you'll discover the astonishing beauty of the most important sites located in the heart of Florence's historical center. Your discovery starts with the Medici Family District. You will walk along the same narrow streets where they walked and you will see the same monuments that they were used to see every day: start from Palazzo Medici Riccardi and San Lorenzo square. You will reach then the religious centre of Florence: the Cathedral with its Brunelleschi dome, the Baptistery and Giotto bell tower. Continuing on, you will admire the stunning Piazza Signoria, a real “outdoor museum”. Dominated by Palazzo Vecchio with its crenellated Arnolfo tower, one of the most famous symbols of Florence. Continuing on, you can admire the romantic, picturesque Ponte Vecchio, the oldest bridge in Florence, with its renowned jewelery shops.
