Florence’s Renaissance treasures are best enjoyed without the crowds—and this VIP tour lets you do just that, with options to start early morning or late afternoon for a calm, intimate experience.
If option selected, begin your tour with skip-the-line access to the Accademia Gallery, home to Michelangelo’s iconic David. Your expert guide will share insights about David and Michelangelo’s unfinished “Slaves,” giving you a deeper understanding of these masterpieces in a relaxed atmosphere.
Next, head to Piazza del Duomo to admire the famed bronze Baptistery doors, known as the "Gates of Paradise." Then, skip the line and explore this magnificent Florence Cathedral with your expert guide.
You'll also gain exclusive access to the Duomo's North Terrace for just your group to explore without the crowds. Then your tour will finish with a climb to the top of the Duomo for stunning panoramic views of Florence.
If you choose the Skip-the-Line David, Duomo & City Highlights option, your tour continues through the streets and piazzas of Renaissance Florence instead of the dome climb and terraces. Admire an open-air gallery of sculptures at Piazza della Signoria, learn about the powerful Medici family at Palazzo Vecchio, and finish at the Ponte Vecchio to take in its unique architecture and history.
This experience combines exclusive access, expert guidance, and the freedom to explore one of Italy's most iconic landmarks without the usual bustle.
