Overview of your Florence tour:

Florence is the city of the Brunelleschi's dome, of a huge cathedral, of the famous tombs of Santa Croce, of San Lorenzo - the church of the Medici family. The Florentines like me are proud of these great masterpieces, but I love to avoid crowds and noise and take refuge in the small churches that were the real wealth of Florentine society of the past. Shining icons, moving light effects, paintings, statues and popular veneration objects have been my friends for a long time. Every now and then I enter a small silent church and I am so enchanted to look at them that I want to make them tell me their stories, which are part of the great Florentine stories. And these are just the stories, the small, but intense emotions that I want to share with you in this tour! Come with me to find them and to discover my elusive city, with a different look on Florence!

Your Florence tour itinerary

- We will start with one of the most important churches of the medieval Florence, so ancient that in the building we still can find some ancient roman pieces: Santa Maria Maggiore. - We'll go on to Santa Trinita square with the church that hosts the frescoes by Domenico Ghirlandaio and the funerary chapel of the Strozzi Family. - We'll enter Santi Apostoli: a romanesque jewel hidden just two steps away from the Ponte Vecchio! And here you'll find a very special kind of stones! - A small pause for a coffee in an elegant cafè, in the elegant frame of the Zeffirelli Museum. - We'll end in one of the few baroque churches in Florence, talking about the faith of the Florentines in the past and nowadays: San Firenze. P. S. We can choose different churches depending on wedding or masses ceremonies. Please note that for entering the churches you will need to have your shoulders and your legs covered down to your knees.
