What makes Florence in a Day Semi Private Tour | MAX 6 PEOPLE GUARANTEED a unique experience ?
Your LivTours Florence Full Day Tour starts by meeting your guide and your fellow travelers in the Piazza della Signoria. This L-shaped square in the heart of the city is surrounded by some of the most important buildings in Florence. You will have a chance to admire centuries of architecture as your expert local guide shares with you the history behind the facades. This important square holds buildings such as Palazzo Vecchio, Town Hall, Uffizi Gallery, with one of the most important art collections in the world, and Palazzo Uguccioni, whose facade was designed by the great Raphael. There is no better place to start your tour than in this all-important square!
Your first stop is the Uffizi Gallery, the former offices of the Medici Family. The Uffizi hold masterpieces by the likes of Michelangelo, Raphael, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, which decorated the walls of the Medici Family corridors. Opening to the public in 1765, it was officially turned into a museum in 1865.
Inside your expert guide will show you masterpieces such as The Birth of Venus, one of the iconic depictions of the mythological goddess as she emerges from the sea on a shell. You will also see Michelangelo’s Doni Tondo, the result of a commission from a prominent Tuscan family, showing a portrait of the Holy Family with the Virgin Mary at the forefront. Though you could spend hours, if not days, in the Uffizi, your guide will show you the most important masterpieces from this impressive collection.
After the Uffizi you will have time for a nice tuscan lunch. Your guide will be happy to make recommendations for local spots. Lunch is not included in this tour.
After enjoying Tuscan lunch, it is time to continue your LivTours Florence Full Day Tour. On your semi-private tour, your expert guide will tell you the stories of Florence as you admire the melting pot of architecture from Gothic, Romanesque, and Renaissance. Take time to admire the Ponte Vecchio Bridge, the oldest bridge in Florence now filled with jewelry shops and a secret centuries-old corridor.
Admire the exterior of the dome of the largest Italian Duomo, designed by Brunelleschi. Hear the anecdotes behind its construction and marvel at the dome that perfectly frames Florence. Learn about the famous Baptistery bronze doors and the history and legends they have left us behind.
Your final stop is the Galleria dell’Accademia, which houses the magnificent 17-foot marble sculpture of David by Michelangelo. Sculpted between 1501 and 1504, when Michelangelo was only 29 years old, the David statue has transcended both time and culture to become one of the world’s most recognized and admired pieces of art.

ABOUT OUR 6 PEOPLE SMALL GROUP POLICY
When you book a LivTours Small Group Tour, you are guaranteed one tour guide per group of 6 people. Please bear in mind, however, that in order to accommodate families and friends traveling together, we do on rare occasion make the exception of adding an additional one to two guests in order to not split the groups of those that are together. On that same note, you may very well find yourself on tour with less than six people!
As we accept bookings in multiples of six, math doesn’t always work in our favor to help accommodate individual travellers and their families when on the same tour, so we hope you understand and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
