Day 1: Arrival in Florence

You will be collected from Florence Airport and transferred to your hotel, where your tailored Italy travel begins. This Florence trip gives you a free afternoon to explore at your own pace.

We recommend visits to the Uffizi Gallery for unrivalled Italian Renaissance paintings and the Accademia to see Michelangelo’s David and an expanded display of musical instruments.

Day 2: Vasari Corridor and tour of the Palazzo Vecchio

Walk the hidden Vasari Corridor, the elevated passage that links Palazzo Pitti to Palazzo Vecchio. Trace its path across the Ponte Vecchio and past the Uffizi Gallery, noting round windows and a unique collection of self-portraits dating back to the 15th century.

While the corridor is usually closed to the public, private access can be arranged for your group, offering a rare and customized experience.

In the afternoon, tour Palazzo Vecchio with a guide who brings its secrets to life: spot the presumed Michelangelo profile near the entrance, step into the grand Room of the Five Hundred, and uncover the unfinished works by Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo later completed by Vasari himself.
