OVERVIEW

Guests who are fully dependent on their mobility device are eligible for this excursion and are required to bring their own wheelchair/scooter.

Explore the most emblematic and recognizable attractions in Florence, beginning with the Accademia Gallery, home to Michelangelo’s exquisite white marble statue of David. You might also see Florentine Gothic paintings, a viola made by Antonio Stradivari and centuries-old religious artwork, all of which the guide will describe as well as the times in which they were created. Continuing on, you will visit the Piazza della Signoria, the political heart of Florence since in the Middle Ages. The Palazzo Vecchio town hall overlooks the square and its iconic tower has become the symbol of Florence.
