Spend two hours in the neighborhood where the sumptuous palace of the Medici family is located, visiting the Basilica of San Lorenzo and admiring the impressive sculptures by Donatello and Michelangelo that decorate the Medici Chapels. The tour ends very close to the picturesque San Lorenzo food market... right at lunchtime!
Take advantage of an in-depth explanation of the Basilica of San Lorenzo (interior and exterior) and the crypt where Cosimo de' Medici and the famous sculptor Donatello are buried.
Marvel at Michelangelo's New Sacristy and be enchanted by the Chapel of the Princes, which is decorated with a rich inlay of semi-precious stones to create a magical, dazzling interplay of colors using the technique of the Florentine mosaic.
