The tour begins at Rome's Termini Railway Station or with a hotel pick-up if the premium option is chosen. Travelers board a high-speed train to Florence, where a guide leads a walking tour of the historic city center with a group limited to nine people. The walk starts near Piazza del Duomo, passing the exterior of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, known for its large dome by Brunelleschi and ornate marble facade. Adjacent is the Campanile di Giotto, a tall bell tower noted for its detailed design, viewed from outside. Next, the group sees the Florence Baptistery, an octagonal building famous for its green and white marble exterior and bronze doors called the 'Gates of Paradise.' The tour continues to Piazza della Repubblica, a major square with historic cafés and shops, followed by a walk across the Ponte Vecchio, a medieval stone bridge lined with jewelry stores over the Arno River. Then the group visits Piazza della Signoria, an open square surrounded by important buildings and sculptures, including a replica of Michelangelo’s David. The highlight is a guided visit inside the Uffizi Gallery, where guests view Renaissance artworks by Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo during a two-hour tour with timed entry included. After some free time, the group reconvenes at Santa Maria Novella Railway Station to catch the return train to Rome. The entire experience lasts about twelve hours and includes headsets for the walking tour and a tour leader throughout the day.
