Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Palazzo Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, Florence Italy

Admire the plain 14th-century façade of the fortress-palace, and hear how it was the hub of Florentine civic power for centuries, and is still home to the city council.

As you admire the exterior, take in the crenelated battlements and 311-foot (95-meter) Arnolfo Tower, the clock tower that is Florence’s second highest viewpoint after Bruneschelli’s Dome.

Enter the palace with your guide and explore it opulent interiors. As you walk, learn how the building became home to Florence’s first Medici ruler, Cosimo I, in 1540, and how the Medicis went on to rule the city for centuries, acting as patrons of the arts.

Ogle the courtyard by Michelozzo and see the main chambers, halls and boardrooms filled with Renaissance paintings, frescoes and statues by greats including Michelangelo, Donatello and Giorgio Vasari.

Marvel at the showpiece Hall of the Five Hundred, with its Vasari battle frescoes, and view other highlights, including the study of Francesco I Medici and chambers of Cosimo’s wife, Eleonora of Toledo.

As dusk takes hold, climb to the rooftop for a guided walk around the battlements 130 feet (40 meters) above the square. Gaze at the sunset-washed city, and if you wish, climb the Arnolfo Tower for even more spectacular views.

This tour was a bust. Guide showed up nearly a half-hour late, and used the larger group's valuable time giving repeated instructions to the 2 or 3 people who'd signed up for the optional dinner. Result was that we were rushed throughout, and there was almost no time for us to ask questions. Guide repeated the same generalities over and over, and didn't include things I would've expected, such as the exploration for hidden frescoes in the great hall.

Palazzo was good , the guide was GREAT but we didnt get to go up the tower as it was over crowded - so waste of money., though the ticket remains valid for 6 months - we had return tickets next day .. so people buying this - be prepared to go back to go up the tower. The dinner is just downstairs in a restaurant , which was not the same idea i got when i see caption sunset tour with dinner we definitely didnt see the sunset even . Dinner was inside a restaurant not outside of the restaurant even food was ordinary - NOT recommended. Just book the palazo tour with the guide - thats enough.

we did not opt for the apetivo. The guide dutifully picked us up outside the Gucci cafe and got our tickets .She showed us around the Vecchio place but conveniently forgot to mention that the tower would not be accessible because of a fashion event. Eventualy we requested the guard to let us up the tower which he did after he confirmed with the booking office downstairs . The guide took us up the tower and left us...that's it. We could not go further up the tower because of the event later in the evening . On return my wife visited the booking office and she was berated saying that the visitors were informed to visit the tower first as it would close early and then visit the palace rooms. But the View from the tower is spectacular and the tickets easily available at the booking office on the ground floor.
