florence_city2.jpg ThumbnailStarting at Piazza Signoria, the heart of the city's historical and political square, it is surrounded by breathtaking sculpture to a visit inside the Palazzo Vecchio, the town hall of Florence.  This tour is designed for the most part as an outdoor walking tour, and the next stop is the Ponte Vecchio.  The old covered bridge once butchers row, where you would buy your meat, now a fabulous sparkling bridge of jewelry. From here we go to Via Cimatori and stop in the alley for a panini and lunch with the locals.  No where to sit, but how fun to stand with the pigeons and savor a fresh panini and a glass of wine.  Just a few meters away we can stop inside the Duomo. Thi cathedral church was designed by Brunelleschi and has an florence_city3.jpg Thumbnailelaborate 19th century Gothic revival.  The baptistery nearby is renowned for its three sets of artistically important bronze doors with relief sculptures.  A walk through San Lorenzo market, overflowing with scarves and leather takes us to San Marco Church, and ending with an appointment at the Accademia at 4 pm to view the beautiful "David."

"...Giovanni gives you an up-close insiders view of the treasures in Florence.  Listen to his passionate sermons of this real-life descendant of Luca Signorelli. Both cynical and funny, and above all, over-flowing with knowledge..."

My guests say:

"Doumina gives you an up-close insiders view of the treasures surrounding the enchanted hill town of Cortona. You like olive oil? Meet a farmer who picks his olives, and the man who presses them. Art your thing? Listen to the passionate sermons of her guide, and real-life descendant of Cortona's own Luca Signorelli. Want to eat the way the heartiest Tuscans do? For breakfast, lunch, and dinner, you will. Guaranteed."
