Itinerary

1

Piazza di Santa Croce

The first stop in Florence will be Piazza Santa Croce. The centerpiece of this square is the Basilica di Santa Croce, one of the most important Franciscan churches in Italy. It is known for its distinctive Gothic architecture and is the final resting place for some of Italy's most illustrious figures, including Michelangelo, Galileo Galilei, Niccolò Machiavelli, and Dante Alighieri.

2

Piazza Del Duomo

Discover the wonderful Piazza del Duomo, the main square in the heart of Florence. It is renowned for its stunning architecture and is surrounded by some of the city's most iconic landmarks like the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore or the Giotto's Campanile. Here you will have free time to walk around the city and discover it on your own.

3

Ponte Vecchio

Walk over the Vecchio Bridge and discover the history behind the shops that line both sides. They are built on the bridge and have historically been used by merchants, especially jewelers and goldsmiths. The tents are suspended over the river and are supported by columns.

Piazza della Signoria

Piazza della Signoria is the seat of civil power with the "Old Palace" and is the heart of the city's social life.
