An unforgettable day of exploring the fascinating atmosphere of the Renaissance, following in the footsteps of the Medici family through the wonders of Florence and visiting the main locations where the series "Medici" was filmed.
The tour will be narrated in the form of a story, taking guests back in time with anecdotes and tales that will capture their imagination.
Transfer from the port to Florence. Walk through the beauties of Florence.
Palazzo Medici Riccardi: a key location in the "Medici" series, where guests will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the history of the Medici family and its intrigues.
Church of Santa Croce: and the Pazzi Chapel, where a plot against the Medici was organised in the Florence Cathedral on 26 April 1478, Easter Day, when Giuliano was stabbed to death (outside visit).
Continue to the Basilica di San Lorenzo, evocative places that provided a unique setting for the plot of the series.
Admire the beauty of Ponte Vecchio and Piazza della Signoria, enchanting settings that framed unforgettable moments in the series: in the square, people involved in the Pazzi conspiracy were executed. In those days it was typical for a young artist to start his career by drawing the Impiccati (the hanged men) in the Palace of the Signoria or in the Bargello. 30 Minutes free time
The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, where the Pazzi conspiracy took place. (outside visit)
