The tour starts from Piazza della Repubblica, the modern heart of Florence and the city's meeting point since Roman times. From here, you'll reach Piazza del Duomo, where you'll find Brunelleschi's extraordinary dome, Giotto's bell tower, and the Baptistery of San Giovanni, one of the city's oldest monuments. Continue along Via dei Calzaiuoli, the ancient street of the artisan guilds, to reach Piazza della Signoria, the political and symbolic center of Florence, dominated by Palazzo Vecchio and surrounded by Renaissance sculptures such as Cellini's Perseus and Michelangelo's David (copy). The route continues along the Uffizi Gallery, passing under the Vasari Corridor, to the famous Ponte Vecchio, one of the most photographed bridges in the world, with its characteristic goldsmith shops. Crossing the Arno River, you can admire the Florentine skyline, which combines elegance and history. The tour continues to Piazza Santa Croce, where you'll find the Franciscan Basilica and the tombs of great figures such as Michelangelo, Galileo, and Machiavelli. Here you can experience the most authentic Florence, among artisans, leather shops and lively outdoor cafés. During the tour, the Retekess audio guide will entertain you with stories, legends, and anecdotes about the lives of the great Renaissance masters, while the guide will ensure that the group follows the route in total comfort and safety.
