Vuoi vivere il Rinascimento oltre i famosi dipinti? Questo tour unico mette in luce la ricca storia di Firenze attraverso la lente dei suoi due più grandi geni artistici, il cui spirito competitivo li spinse a creare alcuni dei capolavori più celebri al mondo. Ascolterai storie sulle loro personalità contrastanti e sulle loro tecniche personali, scoprendo il contesto politico e culturale della Firenze rinascimentale, per comprendere più a fondo l’innovazione e il fervore artistico di quell’epoca. Visiteremo anche la splendida Basilica di Santo Spirito per ammirare uno dei capolavori più incredibili — e sorprendentemente poco conosciuti — di un giovanissimo Michelangelo: **il Crocifisso ligneo**. L’opera fu realizzata come ringraziamento al priore che gli permise di studiare anatomia, aprendo la strada alla sua profonda conoscenza della forma umana. Immergiti nella cultura autentica della città attraverso l’arte, i racconti e consigli speciali sui luoghi preferiti della tua guida.

Dome: Brunelleschi's dome is a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture, being the largest brick dome ever constructed. It employs a double shell and a herringbone brick pattern to ensure stability. The bell tower was designed by Giotto di Bondone, though he only lived to see the lower levels constructed. Andrea Pisano and Francesco Talenti completed the tower after Giotto's death. The baptistery is renowned for its three sets of bronze doors. The south doors were created by Andrea Pisano, while the north and east doors, known as the "Gates of Paradise," were crafted by Lorenzo Ghiberti.

Our experience was unforgettable; our guide Antonio showed us the best of Florentine art among the artistic beauties of Leonardo and Michelangelo, demonstrating availability and professionalism, while also being friendly! We will always carry our experience with us, Iole and Claudio.
Antonio proved to be a high level guide demonstrating professionalism, preparation and excellent communication skills. He effectively illustrated the main sites of Florence, enriching the visit with accurate historical insights and relevant artistic references. We highly recommend this companion to those who want to experience the city in a complete and engaging way.
WOW dopo questa recensione, posso anche smettere! Grazie di cuore è stato davvero un piacere accompagnarvi alla scoperta di questa meravigliosa città. Antonio
fantastic experience .. a beautiful tour in an open-air museum told us by Antonio, a guide prepared and careful to make us see the curiosities otherwise hidden .. really enjoyable
Caro Fabrizio, grazie per la splendida recensione. Vero Fiorenze è un museo a cielo aperto, e credo che la cosa più bella, sia riuscire a scoprir, assieme ai luoghi più famosi, quelli cari ai fiorentini, per poter così apprezzare ancora di più questa città. Vi aspetto per nuovi tour Antonio
We were lucky enough to be only two people to join the tour and the guide was therefore all for us. Antonio was exceptional. It was certainly not the first time we came to Florence, but thanks to him we were able to grasp aspects of the city that we did not know at all. The three hours of the visit passed in the blink of an eye, thanks also to the great communication skills and sympathy of our guide.
Grazie davvero per le vostre parole, sono felice di essere stato in grado di trasmettervi il mio amore per questa splendida città. Se tornate, sarò felice di farvi vedere molto altro. Antonio
Our guide, Antonio, with his preparation and great sympathy, between history and legend, made this tour very interesting. Highly recommended. Not to be missed
Cara Filomena, grazie davvero per le sue splendide parole è stato un piacere ospitarvi a Firenze. Lo sapete se tornerete qui sarete i benvenuti, ma se andrete a Dublino, come Senza Meta, saremo felici di ospitarvi e farvi scoprire, la capitale dell'isola di smeraldo. Alla prossima Antonio
Beautiful walk through Florence, going to find curiosities and anecdotes that only with an expert guide like Antonio you can appreciate. Thank you Antonio
Grazie mille per le splendide parole è stato bello accompagnarvi alla scoperta di Firenze e della rivalità dei due grandi artisti. Se tornate, contattatemi, e come sapete, se andrete a Dublino, li operiamo come Senza Meta, sarà un piacere accompagnarvi alla scoperta della città capitale dell'isola di smeraldo. Alla prossima Antonio
My wife and I did this 3 hour tour which turned out to be very interesting and enjoyable. Even if we touched areas already visited in the previous days it was very nice to revisit them with Antonio who, thanks to his passion and his sympathy, made us passionate about anecdotes and other curiosities about Florence and the relationship between Leonardo and Michelangelo. I recommend the tour to everyone, even in the company of children
Grazie mille davvero Gino, soprattutto per l'ultima parte, quando consiglia questo tour anche pe ri bambini, perché se c'è una cosa che mi piace molto è far riuscire ad appassionare anche i più piccoli a questa meravigliosa città e ala storia dei due grandi geni. Vi aspetto nuovamente qui o come sapete a Dublino. Buon rientro Antonio
Antonio was a nice and pleasant guide offering us an interesting and original route among the most iconic places in Florence, discovering the rivalry between the two artistic geniuses who were Michelangelo Buonarroti and Leonardo da Vinci! Also useful tips and directions of where to go for lunch and dinner!!
Grazie mille per le splendide parole, sono felice che il tour vi sia piaciuto così tanto. Parlare dei due geni, della loro rivalità e concludere il tour davanti alla così poco conosciuta e meravigliosa opera giovanile di Michelangelo è davvero il modo migliore per scoprire Firenze. Grazie per esservi affidati a me e lo sapete se tornate o se decidete di andare in Irlanda, contattatemi, sarò felice di aiutarvi. Antonio
Antonio was a very nice and prepared guide. He welcomed us with enthusiasm and introduced Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo thanks to their works and their artistic rivalry. It is not only, but also many little secrets and surprises. Highly recommended tour!
Grazie mille per la splendida recensione. Sono davvero felice che il tour vi sia piaciuto. Mi paice poter far visitare i luoghi più, famosi di Firenze, assieme ai suoi angoli nascosti. Raccontare la rivalità tra i due grandi artisti e mostrare quella meraviglia che pochi conoscono, che è i crocifisso ligneo del giovanissimo Michelangelo, rendono il mio tour davvero unico a Firenze. Vi aspetto per nuovi tour. Antonio
Fully met our expectations. A beautiful journey through history, legend, curiosity and Art. Antonio was great. Highly recommended.
Grazie mille per le splendide parole, sono state tre ore fantastiche in vostra compagnia. Spero di rivedervi da queste parti e se avrete piacere, vi farò scoprire altri scorci incredibili di Firenze e vi racconterò altre storie che pochi sanno
