Duomo - Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore
Meet your licensed local guide in Florence's old city and step 500 years back into the world of the Medici — Renaissance bankers, popes, poisoners and patrons of Michelangelo.
Walk the medieval streets where Dante once wandered and discover hidden Medici symbols carved into palaces most tourists miss. Hear the true story of the Pazzi Conspiracy of 1478 — the bloody assassination staged inside the Duomo during Mass — told on the very spot it happened.
Your guide reveals the secrets behind the marble facade: rigged elections, poisoned rivals, forbidden love affairs, and the last Medici heiress whose final act saved Florence's art for the world.
Then skip the hour-long queue and step inside the Duomo Cathedral with priority entry. Stand beneath Brunelleschi's impossible dome and decode Vasari's Last Judgment frescoes swirling 90 meters above.
Perfect for couples, families and history lovers who want Florence beyond the guidebook.
