Florence Cathedral: a majestic interplay of art and beauty
Guided tour of the cathedral, including the Brunelleschi Dome and the Terrace
A city of art and timeless charm, where the streets tell stories stretching back thousands of years and the heavens are within arm's reach. Florence has long inspired artists and poets and won the hearts of countless visitors. The best place to start is a visit to its iconic cathedral: Santa Maria del Fiore. Alongside your private guide, discover the interior of the church, which is one of the largest in the world, and enjoy direct priority access to skip the queues. Let yourself by enraptured by the perfectly preserved works of art that lie within, such as Paolo Uccello's clock, Vasari's frescoes, and Bandinelli's marble choir enclosure. Continue to the Terrace to enjoy spectacular views of the historic centre. Climb even higher to reach the iconic Brunelleschi Dome, where it really feels like you can reach out and touch the sky. A truly awe-inspiring experience.
