Florence City Tour: Accademia & Uffizi Guided Tour with Lunch

This comprehensive Florence tour combines the city's two most important art galleries with a guided walk through the historic centre and a traditional Tuscan lunch. You'll see Michelangelo's David at the Accademia Gallery, explore Renaissance masterpieces at the Uffizi, and discover Florence's architectural treasures on foot with skip-the-line access throughout.

Starting at the Accademia Gallery, you'll come face to face with Michelangelo's David and other sculptural works including I Prigioni, San Matteo and the Palestrina Pietà. Your expert guide shares the stories behind these masterpieces in a small group setting. After the gallery visit, walk through Florence's cobbled streets to see the Duomo complex, San Lorenzo Church, Orsanmichele Church, and the Straw Market before reaching Piazza Signoria with its Palazzo Vecchio and open-air sculpture collection.

The afternoon begins with a traditional Tuscan lunch in Florence's old town, followed by priority access to the world-famous Uffizi Gallery. Here you'll see works by Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and other Renaissance masters, with particular focus on Botticelli's Primavera and Birth of Venus. The tour concludes on the Uffizi's panoramic terrace with views across Florence.
