Florence Cathedral Tour
Overview
You’ll start the tour from the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo, the famous workshops where they worked on the construction of the Cathedral, and then you head to the Baptistery which is famous for its golden Byzantine mosaics. Next, the tour will continue with the entrance to the Cathedral, introducing you to the discovery of the artistic beauties of the Cathedral, including a visit to the Crypt of Santa Reparata.
Inside the New Cathedral Museum, you will find the original of the Gates of Paradise, Donatello's Magdalene and Michelangelo's Pietà. Thanks to this tour you will get to know the complete history of the splendid Cathedral of Florence, and the monuments of its complex, an opportunity to be seized on the go!
The guide will then leave you free to conclude the tour with the ascent to Brunelleschi's Dome from which you can enjoy the aerial view of an incomparable panorama of the city of Florence.
