Best things to do in Florence - Discover the secret lives of artists

Come hear our guides with our HD sound systems. You will be guided step by step by real art and history experts, learning all the secrets and history behind this area. Great artists and personalities such as BrunelleschiGiottoDonatelloJacopo Della QuerciaMichelangelo Buonarroti, and Lorenzo Ghiberti-just to name a few-have left important traces of their passages here.

Santa Maria del Fiore is the third largest church in the world and one of the largest in Europe. Florence Cathedral is world famous for Brunelleschi's amazing dome and its polychrome (white, green, red/pink) marble panels that cover the entire structure. 

Florence Cathedral was designed by Arnolfo di Cambio, the same architect as Santa Croce and Palazzo Vecchio, who began the project in 1296.

Inside Florence Cathedral are extraordinary works of art. Starting from the floors, delicately covered with multicolored marbles, to the inside of the dome, covered with the precious frescoes of the Last Judgment by Giorgio Vasari and Federico Zuccari or the famous fresco of Dante before the city of Florence by Domenico di Michelino.

Your licensed guide will take you to discover all the secrets and stories of the Baptistery, with its wonderful mosaic, recently restored.

The tour will continue to discover the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, which houses the incredible reconstruction of the first facade of the Cathedral. We will look closely at the original doors of the Baptistery, admiring the artistic evolution that allowed Florence to become the cradle of the Renaissance.

You will discover Michelangelo's fascinating Pieta Bandini, which the artist created for his own tomb, and Donatello's haunting and expressive Penitent Magdalene.

Complete your visit by climbing the more than 400 steps that will take you to the Dome of the Duomo. During the ascent, your guide will explain the revolutionary architecture designed by Filippo Brunelleschi, amaze you with the details of the gigantic representation of the Last Judgment seen at eye level, and finally let you touch the sky of Florence, taking you to one of the highest points of the city from which you will have a 360-degree view of its architectural wonders.
