At the indicated time, we will meet at the meeting point in Florence to begin a fascinating experience dedicated to discovering the legacy of one of the most influential dynasties of the Renaissance: the Medici family. Together with our expert guide, we will embark on a small-group tour that will allow us to explore some of the most emblematic spaces in the city.
Our visit will begin at the impressive Pitti Palace, a magnificent Renaissance residence acquired by the Medici in 1549 and considered one of the grandest palaces in Florence. During the tour we will explore its elegant halls, richly decorated with frescoes and ornaments that reflect the power and wealth of this remarkable family. Inside, we will visit the famous Palatine Gallery, home to an extraordinary collection of Renaissance masterpieces by artists such as Raphael, Titian, and Caravaggio. Among the highlights, we will admire Raphael’s celebrated painting Madonna of the Chair, a work of remarkable beauty that delicately portrays the bond between the Virgin and Child. Each room will captivate us with its opulence and with the characteristic concept of horror vacui, where every available space is richly filled with paintings and decorations.
After exploring the palace, our journey will continue to the magnificent Boboli Gardens, considered one of the most important examples of Italian gardens and a model that inspired many European royal parks, including those of the Palace of Versailles. During this pleasant walk we will discover remarkable landmarks such as the Buontalenti Grotto, the Neptune Fountain (Boboli Gardens), and the historic Boboli Gardens Amphitheatre, where art, nature, and architecture blend harmoniously.
At the end of the guided tour, we will have time to relax and enjoy the unique atmosphere of this historic setting. In addition, we will receive a ticket valid for 24 hours, allowing us to continue exploring the vast museum complex of Pitti Palace independently and discover its many galleries and artistic treasures at our own pace.
Greca Tip: If you have extra time after the visit, we recommend walking to the highest point of the Boboli Gardens. From there you can enjoy some of the most beautiful views of Florence and the rolling Tuscan hills that surround the city.
