Itinerary
Start your journey with one of the most magnificent churches in Florence, located on the square of the same name. Built in the 13th century by monks of the Dominican Order, this basilica surprises with its architectural solutions and artistic masterpieces. Inside you can see the works of such great masters as Masaccio and Ghirlandaio. The facade of the church, made in the Gothic style, is decorated with green and white marble, and its interior impresses with grandeur and harmony. Santa Maria Novella is not only an important historical landmark, but also a cultural center that tells about the Renaissance and the religious life of Florence.
Admire the majestic city palace located on Piazza della Signoria in the center of Florence. Built in the 14th century, it served as the residence of the city's rulers and a symbol of power. This architectural masterpiece in the style of a medieval fortress combines elements of Gothic and Renaissance. Inside the palace you can see magnificent halls decorated with frescoes, as well as the famous painting "The Battle of San Romano", painted by Paolo Uccelli. Palazzo Vecchio is also home to the city administration and is famous for its clock tower, which offers spectacular views of Florence.
Enjoy the views of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and get acquainted with the story that we will tell only to you.

About Florence
Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, gathers masterpieces of art and architecture into a compact city of stone streets beside the Arno.
The Duomo, with Brunelleschi's great red-brick dome, Giotto's bell tower and the Baptistery's gilded doors, marks the centre of town. A few streets away, Piazza della Signoria and the Palazzo Vecchio face a loggia full of sculpture, and the Uffizi Gallery holds Botticelli, Leonardo and Raphael. Michelangelo's David stands in the Galleria dell'Accademia.
