Known as the medieval Manhattan, San Gimignano is one of the
most beautiful hill towns of Tuscany. Characterized by stone
towers and narrow streets, it is surrounded by an expansive
countryside filled with vineyards that produce the famous
Vernaccia wine.
The main square is Piazza del Duomo (home to the Cathedral)
where you can also take in the sights of the Palazzo del
Podestà, Palazzo del Popolo, the Loggia and various medieval
towers. For a postcard-perfect view of the Tuscan landscape,
climb the Torre Grossa, a tower housing masterworks by
Benozzo Gozzoli, Filippino Lippi, Pinturicchio, and Lippo
Memmi.
Florence:
Accademia,Ponte Vecchio , Boboli gardens, Forte
Belvedere

Visit the Academy museum starting at 10h in the morning. To
see this museum where the absolute protagonist is the statue
of Dante, it takes an hour and a half. After visiting the
Accademia museum, on the way through the historic center, we
will see some major monuments. We can stop for a short lunch
in a typical Florentine restaurant. Immediately after lunch
we will go to the Boboli Gardens where we will spend the
afternoon. The garden is full of monuments, fountains as
well as flowers and centuries-old trees. I suggest ending
the tour at Forte Belvedere, a military fortress designed by
Michelangelo where tourists and residents currently gather
to admire a breathtaking view from the terrace of this
magical place. To go from the Boboli Gardens to the Forte
Belvedere, we will use the taxi. This is full day tour where
you can experience an unforgettable Florentine day.
