Embark on a surprising journey of Florence's history, from the Medieval era to the Renaissance, as you delve into the captivating secrets of the Medici family, still hidden within the walls of Palazzo Vecchio. This iconic palace, one of the city's most recognizable symbols, is a treasure trove of stories and mysteries just waiting to be unveiled.

Boa opção para conhecer Florencia. O motorista foi contando o que era cada coisa até Palazzo Vecchio. Minha única reclamação é que não avisaram da quantidade de escadas. Boa opção, principalmente na primeira visita.

Highlight of the trip

So glad we booked this. The guide flagged where it was worth stopping for photos. The local Professional Guide in English lived up to it. I would recommend it without hesitation.

Recomendo, sabendo o que esperar. Não pode perder Giorgio Vasari y Miguel Ángel. Todo o processo de compra foi claro, sem taxas escondidas. O grupo não era enorme, o que deixou tudo mais confortável. As filas das atrações principais são longas ao meio dia. Recomendo mesmo assim.

Vale la pena, con algunos detalles a pulir. Me quedé con las ganas de más tiempo en Palazzo Vecchio. Nos hubiera gustado saber antes que había que caminar bastante. Nada grave, pero vale saberlo antes de reservar.

Impecable, no le encuentro un pero. El detalle del guía profesional local en inglés sumó mucho. Salió todo en horario, sin sobresaltos. Volveríamos a contratarlo.

Correto

Gostamos bastante, com alguns detalhes pequenos. O guia conduziu bem o grupo. A paisagem em Hall of the Five Hundred não cabe numa foto. Vale acordar cedo, a paisagem nessa hora é outra coisa. Ótimo custo benefício. O único ponto foi a espera no início, saímos uns vinte minutos atrasados. Faria de novo de qualquer forma.
