The tour of Galleria dell’Accademia is a fascinating experience to try in Florence, especially for those who love art and beauty in general. This exceptional museum features some of the most interesting and important works of art, starting with the world-famous David sculpture by Michelangelo. The impressive masterpiece stands over 5 meters tall and shows the true genius of Michelangelo at an early age, symbolizing the biblical hero that defeated Goliath and the liberal values of the Florentine Republic. This is just one of the hundreds of paintings and sculptures displayed inside the Galleria dell’Accademia in Florence, including more works of Michelangelo, but also masterpieces of Botticelli, Uccello, del Sarto, and others.
The second part of this eXPerience includes a group tour of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, among the greatest museums in the world. You will have the unique chance to explore the gallery and discover the most important works of Italian art from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, back when Florence was one of the most cultural destinations in the world. During the visit, you will enjoy a nice break: coffee or cappuccino will be served at the Uffizi cafe. This tour of the Uffizi Gallery will show you some fascinating masterpieces, like the Primavera and the Venere by Botticelli, the genius works of Leonardo, and the beautiful paintings of Giotto, among many others.
The Pontevecchio, the landmark of Florence, houses the best-kept secret of Florence. It serves as a passageway dating back to 1564, when the Grand Duke of Florence, Cosimo I de' Medici ordered his favorite architect, Giorgio Vasari, to build a path that would allow him and the Royal family to move freely from their residence (Palazzo Pitti) to the government palace (Palazzo della Signoria, another side of the river Arno). Hidden between city houses and even passing through a church, the Vasari Corridor has evolved as one of the most astounding architectural masterpieces of the Renaissance.
