Admire the Michelangelo's David in the Accademia Gallery, marvel at the Renaissance artworks and visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.

Explore Florentine art and architecture on a tour that gets you past the typical long lines at the Accademia Gallery and Florence Cathedral. See Michelangelo's David in the uncrowded early morning or late afternoon, and enjoy an in-depth tour of the Duomo, including the exclusive rooftop terraces, usually not accessible by the general public.

With all entrance fees included and a small group (18 guests max) for a more intimate experience, there's no better way to see Florence's top attractions. Your tour includes tickets (valid for 72 hours) allowing you to visit other monuments like the Opera Duomo Museum, Baptistery of San Giovanni and Crypt of Santa Reparata on your own after the tour.
