Highlights

Enjoy an insightful private tour of Palazzo Vecchio with a 5-star tour guide. Visiting Palazzo Vecchio is an incredible experience but without a tour guide, you will deny yourself a unique opportunity to learn the secrets hidden within its walls. Constructed more than 700 years ago, it has witnessed major events in the history of Florence. This castle-like palace has been the city`s Town Hall, a political prison, and even the private residence of the powerful Medici family. Learn about the unfinished work by Leonardo da Vinci that astonished all his contemporaries. See the sights that inspired Dan Brown for his intriguing best-seller novel. Enjoy this unique experience with your tour guide, install a dialogue, ask questions, and be ready to hear all the fascinating stories and secrets hidden within the walls of Palazzo Vecchio.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Florence: Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi Galleries (Gallerie degli Uffizi), Florence Duomo (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore).
