Florence David First Viewing & Duomo with Terrace VIP Access Tour
Overview
Enjoy this VIP combo tour of early entry to see the David, followed by exclusive access to the Duomo terraces. With an expert guide, be among the first visitors of the day to enter the Accademia and appreciate Michelangelo’s masterpiece before the crowds. Wander through the empty halls of the Accademia to admire the famous marble colossus and other highlights like Michelangelo’s unfinished torsos, Giambologna’s Abduction of the Sabine Woman, and Jacopo’s Coronation of the Virgin.
Then, walk the short distance to Florence's iconic cathedral for a truly exclusive tour of the Duomo's Terraces. With our priority access, you'll go straight inside Santa Maria del Fiore and head up to the Terraces. Here, you'll be able to walk along the two elevated walkways - 100 feet high and 230 feet long - completely alone, with no other groups present. Enjoy breathtaking views over the red-tiled rooftops of Renaissance Florence, Brunelleschi's Dome up close, Giotto's Bell Tower, and the Baptistry.
