Arezzo: Private tour with the Legend of the True Cross

Florence· Renaissance · galleries · walkableGerman, English, Italian

Arezzo is famous because Giorgio Vasari was born here, the disciple of Michelangelo, who designed the famous Uffizi and the Vasari Corridor in Florence on behalf of Grand Duke Cosimo I De' Medici. Our tour's principal stops are as follows: The city's center square, Piazza Grande, is uniquely typical with its porticoes dating from the sixteenth century. Piazza del Duomo: this stunning medieval structure, dominating the plaza, houses priceless artwork by Donatello and Piero della Francesca. Arezzo's ancient lanes and streets, where the ambiance of the old goldsmith shops is still palpable. The most well-known painting by 15th-century painter Piero della Francesca is located in the Basilica of San Francesco, Cappella Bacci. Based on the advice of Dominican priest Jacopo da Voragine, these frescoes tell the story of the True Cross! How could anyone possibly miss a tour this thorough? Now let's move!

Where this sits in Florence

Florence is about 8 min by road from Florence Peretola Airport. Compact enough to cross on foot in half an hour, and holding more Renaissance art than most countries. Busy in the middle and calm five minutes out; the Oltrarno side of the river is where people actually live and eat.
