Livorno, localizada no centro da Toscana, é a porta de entrada para a glória do Renascimento em Florença e Pisa. Entre os séculos XIII e XVI, esta era de liberdade criativa incentivou os gênios de Dante, Donatello, Michelangelo, Giotto, Botticelli, da Vinci e Maquiavel a criar algumas das obras mais notáveis do mundo. A elegante Florença oferece a Galleria dell'Accademia, com sua obra-prima icônica, o David de Michelangelo. Uffizi abriga a galeria de arte mais renomada da Itália, com obras representativas dos titãs da arte renascentista. Junte-se a nós para uma excursão a Pisa e visite o belo e histórico Campo dei Miracoli da cidade. Siena, nas proximidades, captura o espírito da Itália medieval e Lucca oferece a oportunidade memorável de andar de bicicleta pela aromática paisagem toscana.

Wherever you look around, you’ll find yourself surrounded by historical buildings which bear the mark of the history of Florence. After checking in at your hotel and dropping off your luggage, enjoy lunch at Osteria Pagliazza, reputed to be one of the best restaurants in Florence, located on the ground floor of the Brunelleschi Hotel, a very exclusive hotel located in the shadow of the dome of Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral.
After a delicious lunch of Tuscan specialties, you will begin a walking tour of this fascinating city – its historic center inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list.
Walking though the cobbled streets, you will see the most iconic sites like the magnificent Duomo and Piazza della Signoria, respectively the religious and political centers of the city, where art and architecture really played an important role.

Today, fourteen of the original seventy-six towers have survived.
After a short introduction by your guide, you will have some free time to stroll at leisure in town, browsing through the many handicraft shops and admiring the medieval architecture which has landed the historic center on the UNESCO World Heritage list.
