SHARED TOUR MAX 25 PEOPLE
Enjoy the single opportunity to view all the main Florence museums in an afternoon: escorted by a knowledgeable Guide, visit the Accademia Gallery, the Uffizi and learn the history and secrets of the Vasari Corridor with this tour!

Get inside the Accademia Gallery museum with a fast-track priority ticket and remain enchanted admiring the original David, the amazing Michelangelo's masterpiece that has become the symbol of Renaissance splendour.

David dominates the central gallery of the museum and you will have the chance to gaze in awe at such perfection.
The David was sculpted entirely from a single block of local Carrara marble and it's 5.17 meters tall (17 ft). Michelangelo (in his twenties at that time) wanted to represent the biblical hero David that killed Goliath and when it was unveiled, in 1504, the Florentine citizens interpretated it as a symbol of the civil liberties embodied in the Florentine Republic.

Other than the David, you will have the chance to admire also the famous Michelangelo's unfinished sculptures - "Prigioni" and "San Matteo".
The Accademia Gallery houses also a great number of art masterpieces dating from the Middle Ages to Renaissance: among the others, your knowledgeable English-speaking Guide will show you paintings and sculptures from Botticelli, Paolo Uccello, Andrea del Sarto and many more.

Then walk toward Signoria Square and enter the beautiful Uffizi Gallery, one of most important museum in the world, and enjoy an approximately 2.5-hour guided tour of the main halls, avoiding the usual long lines as you will have a skip-the-line priority entrance. You will thus be able to view the main masterpieces by artists like Giotto, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, etc.

To follow, your art expert will focus the Vasari Corridor history and secrets (no entrance in the corridor - please see notes): nestled and hidden between houses and even passing through a church, the Vasari Corridor is undoubtedly one of the most astounding architectural masterpieces of the Renaissance.

Time for a break! Relax while enjoying a frothy cappuccino or coffee at the Uffizi Cafe located on the museum terrace, that overlooks a spectacular panorama on history.

This tour of Florence will offer your the unique opportunity to live the city and its artistic pleasures at its best: don't miss the chance!
