I Medici a Firenze: una storia di soldi, potere e pettegolezzi!
Descrizione
Passeggiando da un capo all'altro del centro cittadino, vi faremo appassionare alle vicende privatissime di una delle famiglie più famose della storia: i Medici. Passeremo due ore in bilico tra pettegolezzo e verità, parleremo dei personaggi famosi e di quelli misconosciuti, tratteremo di sacro e di profano. Da piazza Santissima Annunziata a Palazzo Pitti, non ci sarà tempo di annoiarsi! Passando da Palazzo Medici, prima residenza signorile della famiglia, ci fermeremo alla chiesa di San Lorenzo, costruita a loro gusto e misura. Arrivati al Duomo, scopriremo il coinvolgimento della famiglia nella realizzazione di quella che è ancora oggi considerata un miracolo dell’architettura rinascimentale: la cupola del Brunelleschi. Da qui giungeremo al cuore del potere politico cittadino, Palazzo Vecchio e, attraversato il ponte più antico di Firenze, arriveremo al fulcro dell’ambizione medicea: Palazzo Pitti.

I thought they took my money but I found it. I want to remove that from my original review . I still think it doesn’t live up to a 5 star rating. Little service. No turn down. Bathroom tiny.
Hallo! I believe that you have mistaken the tour with the hotel. We are tour guides and we provide tours, not a hotel. It would be nice you could remove this review as it is not for us. Thank you
Federico was amazing in all of her knowledge about the tour. She walked us through all the important places and explained in detail how each building and history it portained to the Medici family. Answered questions and was patient.
Thank you Casey, it was my pleasure!!!
Great small group experience! Highly recommend. Vast knowledge of Tuscany, not limited to Medici family.
Thanks for your review. It’s a pleasure for us to show you and tell you all about Florence
The details you don't know and so much they say. As a family was able to gather so much power and also share it with their community.
Given a precipitously announced rail strike, need to change dates to the following day. Even though there were no tours covering the same content for the next dat, the representative at Viator found one for us: Antonio Bencista. He was stellar, providing detailed history of everything Medici. What's more, my wife and I were his sole students. In addition to providing us with precise background information about the Medici family, he encouraged and was able to answer any questions we dreamed up, about the Medici's, Florence, Italy or Italy's place & perspective at any point in world history. Outstanding. Of note, Viator did NOT charge us a penalty fee for the needed change in tour dates (unlike Crown Tours who slapped us with a 65 euro/pp fee for a date change necessitated by the same rail strike).
Thank you for your kind words! We are always happy to accommodate our clients. Although, it’s not Viator but it is us, Florence Local Experts, who decided to not charge anything extra 😉 we are glad you have greatly enjoyed your tour with Antonio! Thank you again!
Our guide was excellent! Super knowledgeable and she made the Medics come to life. I highly recommend this tour.
Thank you very much, your kind words are very important to us!
Fantastic tour! Great way to learn the city and the Medici history!! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and so pleasant. We didn’t want to leave her!
Thank you Jamie for your kind words, it means a lot to us! Best regards from Florence
Our DAR Chapter went. There were 10 of us. We all love history. You can't beat the ticket price. The Director of Meadow Garden was our tour guide. She was so professional, knowledgeable and very sweet. So glad that we went. There are lots of good restaurants close by. There was plenty of free parking. They are open M-F but a group can schedule a tour on Saturday if needed. That is what we did.
