Florence Duomo Complex Privérondleiding
Beschrijving
Het Duomoplein biedt een adembenemend uitzicht, vooral bij zonsondergang, wanneer de zonnestralen het polychrome marmer van de gebouwen in het religieuze complex van de stad verlichten: het doopkapel, de kathedraal en de klokkentoren van Giotto. Met onze gecertificeerde Gids heeft u de kans om de prachtige Byzantijnse mozaïeken op het gewelf in het Baptisterium te bewonderen, terwijl u buiten het meesterwerk van Lorenzo Ghiberti kunt zien, de oostelijke deur van het Baptisterium, gewoonlijk de “Poort van het Paradijs” genoemd. De volgende stap van uw reis zal de majestueuze kathedraal van Santa Maria del Fiore onthullen, de Duomo. De laatste halte van de tour is het Museum van de Opera del Duomo, waar u kunstwerken van onschatbare waarde kunt bewonderen. Als je de bijbehorende optie kiest, heb je de kans om de klokkentoren van Giotto te beklimmen.

Reisroute
Het Duomo-plein biedt een adembenemend uitzicht, vooral bij zonsondergang, wanneer de zonnestralen het polychrome marmer 'verlichten' van de gebouwen die het religieuze complex van de stad vormen: de doopkapel, de kathedraal en de klokkentoren van Giotto. In feite harmoniseert de chromatische homogeniteit (groen, wit en rood) een stilistische verscheidenheid prachtig.
De kathedraal van Santa Maria del Fiore, gelegen in Florence, is een van de beroemdste meesterwerken van de gotische en Renaissance architectuur. De bouw begon in 1296, ontworpen door Arnolfo di Cambio, en werd voltooid in 1436 met de majestueuze koepel van Filippo Brunelleschi, een opmerkelijke technische innovatie. De kathedraal wordt gekenmerkt door een gevel van wit, groen en roze marmer en staat bekend om zijn indrukwekkende omvang en ingewikkelde decoratieve details. De Campanile van Giotto, naast de kerk, en het Baptisterium van St. John, met de beroemde Poorten van het Paradijs van Lorenzo Ghiberti, maken het prachtige complex compleet. Het interieur, relatief sober in vergelijking met het exterieur, herbergt kunstwerken van kunstenaars als Paolo Uccello en Donatello. De koepel, met zijn beroemde fresco's van het Laatste Oordeel van Giorgio Vasari en Federico Zuccari, domineert de skyline van Florence en blijft een van de meest bewonderde architectonische wonderen ter wereld.
De tour brengt ons naar het museum van "Opera del Duomo" waar u van dichtbij werken van hoge waarde uit het artistieke erfgoed van het religieuze complex zult bewonderen; om op te merken, samen met anderen, "La Pietà" van Michelangelo. Houd er rekening mee dat het museum elke eerste dinsdag van de maand gesloten is
Met onze Gecertificeerde Gids heeft u de mogelijkheid om, binnen, de prachtige Byzantijnse mozaïeken van het gewelf te bewonderen terwijl, buiten, het meesterwerk van Lorenzo Ghiberti, de oostelijke deur van het Baptisterium, gewoonlijk 'de Poort van het Paradijs' genoemd. Houd er rekening mee dat de Mozaïeken van het Baptisterium worden gerestaureerd
Giotto's Bell Tower in Florence is een prachtig voorbeeld van gotische architectuur, staande naast de kathedraal van Santa Maria del Fiore. Ontworpen door Giotto di Bondone in 1334, werd het voltooid in 1359 door Andrea Pisano en Francesco Talenti. De 84 meter hoge toren is versierd met wit, groen en roze marmer, dat harmonieert met de gevel van de kathedraal. Het beschikt over ingewikkelde geometrische patronen, sculpturale reliëfs en prachtige beelden, waarvan vele nu bewaard worden in het Museo dell'Opera del Duomo. Bezoekers kunnen de 414 treden beklimmen om te genieten van een adembenemend panoramisch uitzicht over Florence, waardoor het een van de meest iconische bezienswaardigheden van de stad is. Bezoek Giotto's Bell Tower (indien optie geselecteerd) Klanten worden vriendelijk geïnformeerd dat de klokkentoren van Giotto gesloten blijft van 10 tot 14 november.

Eva was great! A native of Florence, she is VERY knowledgeable, friendly, funny and down to earth. It was more of a chat rather than non-stop talking like most guides do. She was great with my 14-year old daughter as well as her 68 year-old dad, me!
Dear Guest, Thank you for your wonderful words. We are delighted to hear that you appreciated Eva’s professionalism, friendliness, and engaging style, making the visit enjoyable for the whole family. Your feedback is a great source of satisfaction for us and will be shared with her. Kind regards, ACCORD Team
Knowledgeable guide gave us a thorough tour. I would skip the bell tower climb if I went again. The wire mesh makes it difficult to get any good photos. Looks to be the same for the dome climb as well. There was some confusion over the admission lines, but our guide handled it for us.
Dear Guest, thank you for your review. We are pleased that the guide provided a complete tour and resolved the confusion at the entrance. We are sorry for the difficulty taking photos from the bell tower; we will take your comments into account. Kind regards, ACCORD Team
Wonderful tour with a very knowledgeable guide. Highly recommended. The museum itself holds many treasures that can easily be overlooked without a good guide.

Unfortunately this tour did not work out for us. Once our guide Sylvia arrived - she was 10 minutes late - she was accommodating to helping us check our backpack & find a toilet. After that, I was not impressed with crowd or long line control. There was no “skip the line” with a private tour guide to get into see the Duomo and the line was very long. We ended up going to the Bell Tower first, then the museum. The Baptistry was under construction so nothing to really see via the main sight. Upon returning to the Duomo line - it continued to be long. Sylvia told us out tickets are good for 3 days so we decided to call it done & visit on our own. Nothing bad to say about our guide - just the entire process of getting in & touring was not easy or pleasant. There are other smaller museums & collections to view. Go enjoy them
Dear Jennifer, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that the experience did not fully meet your expectations. However, we would like to clarify that when our guide arrived at the meeting point, you were no longer there. It was therefore necessary to contact you by phone in order to meet and start the tour. The guide immediately apologized for the small misunderstanding and did her best to ensure the smooth running of the visit. Regarding the visit itself, please note that access to the Cathedral is managed directly by the administration of the complex, and during busy periods, lines may form even for ticket holders. The ticket used for this tour includes priority access to the various monuments of the complex; however, all visitors are still required to go through mandatory security checks, which can sometimes cause brief delays. We are pleased to know that the guide remained patient and did her best to make the experience as enjoyable as possible despite the circumstances. We sincerely hope that, despite the crowds and the ongoing restoration works, you were still able to appreciate the beauty and history of Florence’s Cathedral complex. Thank you again for your review, your feedback is always valuable to us. We hope to welcome you back to Florence soon and offer you an experience even more in line with your expectations. Warm regards, ACCORD Team
Great take - Had a great guide. On the negative side 1) Email sent us pre-tour on a wild goose chase to pick up tickets (wasn’t necessary because guide had them). 2) Assumed we were getting “skip line tix” which were faster than regular tix but still 45 minute wait…
Dear Paul, thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour and appreciated your guide’s work, that truly means a lot to us! As mentioned on the voucher, tickets are normally collected at the meeting point. However, for guests who choose the pick-up option, the guide collects the tickets in advance, and the meeting point becomes the location selected for the pick-up. Regarding the skip-the-line access, please note that it allows you to bypass the ticket line, but all visitors must still go through the mandatory security checks managed by the museum. During busy periods, these procedures may take a little longer, and we truly appreciate your patience and understanding. We’re glad you still had a great experience overall, and we hope to welcome you again soon on another tour! Kind regards, ACCORD Team
