Florence

Sign up to track this →

Florence’s very name conjures thoughts of history, art, and culture. Walking through the ancient and narrow streets in the birthplace of the Renaissance, you trace the footsteps of past residents; Dante, Michelangelo, Galileo, Machiavelli - and Guccio Gucci, too.

Stand on the banks of the Arno River at different times of day and see the city change with each passing moment. Art is everywhere, from the galleries of the Uffizi to the statue of David in the Galleria dell'Accademia, not to mention the chalk art that is all over the brick and cobblestone streets. Climb the steps to the top of the Duomo and gaze at the huge bronze doors of the Baptistry. Experience extravagant shopping and fashion in the Mercato Centrale, then cross the Ponte Vecchio and go for a stroll through the meticulous Boboli Gardens. The city only becomes more alive as the day turns to night and tourists and locals alike head to the bars and restaurants.

Florence is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the perfect base from which to explore all that Tuscany has to offer.
