What's included in Private Renaissance Discovery Tour of Florence
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Florence
There is no better way to discover the beauty, history, and culture of Florence than with a private local guide! Enjoy the personalized attention in which only a private tour can provide. Your art and history loving guide will meet you directly outside of your accommodation in Florence (if centrally located). From there, your journey throughout the “Cradle of the Renaissance” will begin!
Piazza San Giovanni
As you stroll through the picture-perfect Florentine streets, your guide will lead you to one of the most historic and beautiful squares of Florence - Piazza San Giovanni! You will immediately be welcomed by the breathtaking view of Brunelleschi's Duomo, the Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral, the San Giovanni Baptistery, and Giotto's Bell Tower. Your guide will walk you around the cluster of buildings and share some interesting information about the buildings’ fascinating histories as well as some fun, local stories. Discover how this square grew from a single building into the intricate architectural masterpiece it is today. Then, spend a couple of minutes snapping photos of the incredible scenery - white, pink, and green marble decorations glowing throughout the whole square. Not only is this complex a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but it is also an international symbol of Italy!
Piazza della Repubblica
Follow your captivating guide to Piazza della Repubblica, right around the corner from Florence’s Duomo. This square is one of the most historic points in the city. Hundreds of years ago, and throughout various ruling families, Piazza della Repubblica remained the civic heart of Florence. As your guide explains its vivid history, imagine going back in time to when the ancient men and women walked on the same grounds in which you are standing. Although the square is now home to Florence’s luxury shops and elegant cafes, it was once a bustling, local marketplace. Your expert guide will be happy to answer any curious questions you may have about the fascinating Piazza della Republica.
