Overview

Enjoy an insightful private tour of the Medici Chapels – the last home of the famous dynasty that wrote the history of Florence. If you are an art lover it’s a must for you to visit the Medici Chapels, but without a tour guide, you will deny yourself a unique opportunity to learn the gossips and secrets hidden within their walls.

Built as the mausoleum for the Grand Dukes of Florence it became a breathtaking museum decorated with most precious and incorruptible materials: marble and granite, jasper and alabaster, lapis and many other semiprecious stones.

Discover the New Sacristy – another masterpiece of Michelangelo Buonarroti where he revealed himself not only as a talented sculptor but also as an expressive architect.

Join me for this incredible tour and smoothly navigate in the Chapels. Be the first to see all the details, avoiding all the hassle of big group tours.
