Overview of your Florence tour:

This tour takes places in the city center of Florence, but it is not your average "highlights" walking tour. Instead it winds through the old center, slightly off the beaten path, bringing to light the details on the palaces that open up the "book of stories". Stories about the rich families that once upon a time lived in those palaces, and made Florence what it is: a city of art and beauty. Many of the details on those facades (or the altarpieces and frescos paid for by the same families), tell the tale of the artists that created such beauty, men with revolutionary ideas and interesting lives. In addition to its artistic history, the ancient rivalries between some of the families and their bloody feuds shaped the political fate of Florence and one single incident, in early 1200s, put in motion a series of conflicts that divided the city for the next 100 years. When the tour meets Piazza della Signoria, the stories of the most important Florentine family, the Medici, will reveal their characters and vision.
