Overview

Unlock the mysteries of Florence's iconic Duomo with our exclusive private guided visit!
Immerse yourself in the captivating history of this architectural marvel. The history of this monument is ancient and very peculiar: it began in 1418, when a daring competition was announced to design the Dome. Imagine the scene - leading architects flocking to Florence, each competing for the grand prize: 200 gold florins and everlasting fame!
Brunelleschi was the winner, with Lorenzo Ghiberti by his side as co-superintendent. Many considered the design absurd, declaring it impossible: the construction was indeed difficult and full of obstacles, yet Brunelleschi's genius prevailed. Witness the fruits of his vision first-hand as your private guide leads you on a captivating journey up the Dome.

After the guided tour of the Dome, with the same ticket, you will have 72 hour to visit the other attractions of the Complex at your own pace.
