MICHELANGELO AND LEONARDO
Discover the magical worlds of Michelangelo and Leonardo with your private guide, on our full day tour to
Florence and to the little town of Vinci. Start your day touring Florence and visit the Galleria dell´Accademia, where you will admire the David and
other sculptures by Michelangelo. Also, see paintings and statues made by the contemporaries and followers of the artist, such as Botticelli, Giambologna and others. Next, visit Michelangelo´s house, enlarged by his
grand–nephew and turned into a museum since 1859. Inside, you will admire the Battle of the Centaurs and the Madonna of the Steps, two famous bas–reliefs
made by teenager Michelangelo. Also, see sketches, projects and an exclusive collection of drawings made by the maestro. Next, visit Michelangelo´s
monumental tomb in the nearby basilica of Santa Croce, where the artist reposes. Enjoy some leisure time in Florence, then drive to Vinci, a medieval village located in the hills of the Tuscan
countryside, to view Leonardo´s flying machine and other inventions on display inside the castle. Continue your tour at Anchiano, to see Leonardo´s birthplace.
