Step by Step

Immerse yourself in the history and art of Florence with this guided tour of the Palazzo Vecchio, one of the city's most emblematic monuments. With this semi-private experience, you will enjoy a more intimate and personalised tour, as the groups are small.

Start your tour in Piazza della Signoria, home to the Palazzo Vecchio, an impressive Renaissance palace that has been the political centre of the city for centuries. Accompanied by an expert guide, you will enter the palace and explore its halls and corridors for about an hour and a half, discovering the treasures within.

Admire the majesty of the Hall of the Five Hundred, where the assemblies of the Council of the Five Hundred were held, and marvel at the works of art that decorate the walls, including frescoes by Giorgio Vasari. Discover the Hall of the Elements, decorated with allegories of the natural elements, and the Hall of Maps, which displays ancient maps of Tuscany.

During the tour, your guide will tell you about the fascinating history of the Palazzo Vecchio and its importance in the political and cultural life of Florence. You will learn about the Medici, the family that ruled the city for centuries, and about the artists and architects who left their mark on this magnificent building.

    The guided tour of the Palazzo Vecchio was impressive, with a total immersion in Florentine history and culture, but I found the length of the tour a little short to fully appreciate the richness of the place.
