Experience the Renaissance in Florence

Whether you are a history geek or looking to experience true Italian art and culture without a large crowd, this small group tour to the Palazzo Vecchio might just be perfect for you. Built between 1299 and 1314, the palace is a perfect blend of Renaissance and Gothic styles.

Explore the mysteries inside the museum

With a licensed tour guide for company, stroll through the private apartments of the Grand Duke and Duchess, which house the stunning study of Francesco I and nature and landscape paintings.

Move on to the Hall of Geographical Maps, which contains 53 maps representing the world. A tour like this demands a little bit of downtime and what better way to do it than to sit peacefully on the terrace behind the building, watching the beautiful sights of Florence?
