Florence

Overflowing with extraordinary art and captivating architecture, Florence is full of original masterpieces and priceless artefacts.

Situated on the banks of the Arno River, the distinct profile of this historic city has not changed much since the Renaissance. Its narrow, cobbled streets overflow with elegant palazzi, medieval chapels, churches adorned with frescoes and museums filled with paintings and sculptures by Botticelli, Michelangelo and many others.

In addition to its impressive historical heritage, Florence is also home to members of the Italian fashion aristocracy such as Guccio Gucci and Salvatore Ferragamo.

Sitting comfortably side by side are award-winning fashion empires, rustic family-owned restaurants and ancient monuments, making Florence a must-visit destination when visiting Tuscany.
