A monk seizes power and burns art in a bonfire. A goldsmith cracks an egg to win the commission of a lifetime. A powerful family controls a city for centuries through patronage, plotting, and art. Welcome to Florence — and this is how the Renaissance really happened.
In just under 2 hours, you’ll uncover the city’s most iconic landmarks — including the Duomo, Uffizi courtyard, Piazza della Signoria, and the Ponte Vecchio — all while hearing the fascinating stories of the Medici family and artists like Giotto, Michelangelo, and Brunelleschi. But this isn’t a dry history lesson — it’s a lively, story-filled experience packed with fun facts, art secrets, and power plays that shaped the modern world.
Available in 9 languages, this tour is perfect for first time visitors to Florence who want to unpack the stories behind the Renaissance at their own pace. Over 20,000 travelers have explored with our audio walking tours, and a full refund guarantee means you can book with confidence.
