Join an exclusive guided tour of the hidden areas of Palazzo Vecchio followed by a typical lunch or a gelato tasting.

Feel the thrill of discovering secret places and hidden paths in Palazzo Vecchio that are inaccessible to the general public. Ascend the narrow passages of Duke Gualtieri’s medieval stairway and be surprised by an unexpected path beyond a door hidden by a painting. Admire the precious coffered ceiling of the Salone dei Cinquecento and explore the Medicean Palace from an unusual perspective.

After the tour, continue this experience by choosing between a Tuscan lunch in a typical restaurant in the old city center and a gelato tasting in one of the most famous Florentine ice cream shops.

Die Kunstvermittlerin Martha war sehr gut. Dass wir den Vorzug hatten, in nicht zugängliche Bereiche zu kommen, war interessant. Der Palazzo Vecchio ist ja riesig! Das Mittagessen ist gute toskanische Hausmannskost ohne Schnickschnack. Sehr nettes Lokal. Hat alles gepasst. Ein gelungener Vormittag.

Super guide; very interesting, enlightening and entertaining. Definitely worth doing!

So worthwhile!
