Skip the long lines to one of the most popular attractions in Florence and save precious time on an express guided tour of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.

Once inside the amazing monument - also known as the Florence Duomo - marvel at the vaulted ceilings, intricate stained-glass windows and beautiful frescos. Hear the fascinating story of the building's creation from a dedicated guide, from its origins as a 7th-century church to the impressive 89,000 square foot cathedral that stands in its place today.

Learn about the new engineering technique created by Filippo Brunelleschi to build the dome. See a stunning fresco of The Last Judgement by Vasari in the cupola. Then, get the option to stay and explore at leisure or continue out to Piazza del Duomo to admire the marbled exterior.

Choose our upgrade option and ascend the Dome at your pace for the most breathtaking views of Florence. This exclusive access ensures a bespoke and awe-inspiring experience, allowing you to soak in the stunning panoramas in a more leisurely setting.

Excellent bus driver, Sando was easy to understand and he and Ilaria kept us safe and on time. Highly recommend lunch/wine tasting option. Pisa a photo must, Siena a walk back in time.
