Florence Vacations

Take in the Renaissance art and picturesque squares of Florence on either an escorted or independent tour. On our escorted vacations, travelers are accompanied by a knowledgeable guide who can navigate the city center and point out the sights, both famous and little-known. We also offer independent vacation packages, which combine airfare and hotel nights and allow plenty of free time. While a few itineraries visit only Florence, most include the city as part of a longer itinerary.

While exploring this jewel on the River Arno, you might stop at the Piazza Della Signoria, encircled by sculptures and outdoor cafes. It's a gateway to the Uffizi Gallery, which houses a magnificent collection that includes works by Michelangelo, da Vinci, Botticelli and Raphael. Il Duomo, a cathedral with an intricately decorated facade, is another prime attraction, as is the sculpture "David," created by Michelangelo and now on view in the Galleria dell'Accademia.

Your itinerary may also venture into the surrounding Tuscan countryside, where you'll travel roads lined by cypress trees and olive groves, perhaps for a visit to a vineyard.
