Treasures of Florence walking tour with Accademia and Uffizi skip-the-line tickets
Visit two of the most famous museums in the world, the Accademia Gallery and the Uffizi Gallery, skipping the long lines at the entrance. Join a walking tour of Florence and discover its main attractions with explanations from a professional guide.
At the Accademia Gallery, you'll learn why Michelangelo's David is the most recognizable symbol of Florence and what it used to represent in his time. How did Michelangelo meet the challenge of extracting the pathos of a being and fixing it forever in time in the Pietà, or the famous Prisoners who still seem to struggle free from their marble blocks? You will have the answers to all your questions.
After the guided tour, you will have some free time to wander around on your own. Then, enjoy an introductory tour to learn about Florentine history, from the city's Roman origins to a 15th-century palace, from Ponte Vecchio, passing through the famous Uffizi courtyard, to the wonderful architecture of Brunelleschi's Dome.
Next, visit one of the most famous museums in the world: the Uffizi Gallery. Your guide will explain the works of the greatest artists from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance: Cimabue, Giotto, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian and many others. Discover the secrets of the craft, techniques and tools of great artists and learn why Florence is considered the cradle of the Renaissance. After the tour, you will have the chance to stay longer in the museum and explore it on your own.
