This is a 1.5-hour small group guided tour of the famous Michelangelo’s David and Accademi Gallery, one of Florence’s most visited museums.
From the meeting point to Accademia Gallery, with your expert guide, you will have a short walk crossing Piazza Della Signoria where a copy of David stands and admire the entire exterior of Piazza del Duomo (Florence Cathedral).
We will visit Accademia Gallery with priority entrance. Once inside, you can see David immediately. The guide will give you insights into this masterpiece of sculpture all over the world, one of the symbols of the Renaissance and Florence. The figure of the biblical hero preparing to face Golia has created the ideal of male beauty in art.
The Gallery is also one of the places with the highest number of sculptures observed by Michelangelo. Here you can admire the museum of musical instruments, the largest collection of paintings with a gold background, and the Sala dei Prigioni with sculptures designed for the Pope Julius II.
After the guided tour, you can keep exploring the Gallery at your leisure.
