Begin your day of discovery with an enlightening small group walking tour of Florence including its most fascinanting squares and landmarks: follow your professional guide and stroll through the historic streets of the city to arrive in PIAZZA DUOMO, where you will learn the secrets of the majestic Cathedral, the unmistakable Brunelleschi's Dome, Giotto's Bell Tower, and discover the beauty of the Baptistery with its golden, bronze doors (including the famous Porta del Paradiso). During the walking tour, your local and engaging guide will point out the main monuments of the city: discover Dante's House and the tiny church where, according to legend, he fell in love with Beatrice at first sight. Then, admire the Medieval district of Florence and learn what "tower houses" are and how the ancient Florentine nobility used them to demonstrate their power and greatness to their enemies. Admire Piazza della Repubblica with its elegant cafés and arcades and then admire Piazza della Signoria, the heart of the city. Perhaps not everyone knows that the famous Loggia dei Lanzi houses original masterpieces, such as the bronze statue of Perseus by Cellini and the spyral-shaped Rape of the Sabine women by Giambologna.
