Florence in a day walking tour with David, Duomo and Uffizi

This Florence In a Day tour offers you the best of the best condensed into an epic 8-hour adventure. This is more than just a tour, it’s a voyage through time! In a small group you will have unparalleled access to your expert guide. With plenty of time to ask all those questions that you can’t find in books, this is the perfect way to experience the most jaw-dropping art, architecture and historical intrigue that the city has to offer.

Start your day by meeting the most famous marble sculpture in history - Michelangelo’s incomparable David. You’ll skip the long lines at the Accademia Gallery and walk straight in. Next, you’ll head to another stone structure that changed world history - Florence Duomo. After a quick stop at the doors of the baptistery to admire Ghiberti’s masterworks (which Brunelleschi was insanely jealous of), you will dive into the beautiful streets of Florence to learn some of the rich history of the city. From the outdoor sculpture gallery of the Piazza della Signoria to the characters sculpted along the walls of Orsanmichele church, the history of Florence will be brought to life one sculpture and building at a time.

After a two-hour break for lunch (not included in the price of your tour, but your guide will show you the very best spots to eat) you’ll reconvene at the doors of the Uffizi, Italy’s most popular art museum and one of the greatest collections of art in the world.
