1Piazza della Signoria
You will recognize our guide immediately: who doesn’t know the face of His Majesty Michelangelo Buonarroti? After warmly welcoming the group—and paying special attention to our youngest guests—he will introduce the origins of Florence and explain how, in just a few centuries, it became the cradle of the Renaissance and the birthplace of some of the greatest geniuses in the history of world art. In this square, we will discover a replica of what is probably the most famous—and most breathtaking—statue in the world: Michelangelo’s David.
