The Accademia Gallery in Florence with your private guide
Discover the wonders of the Renaissance with a private guided tour of Florence’s Accademia Gallery. Begin in the Hall of the Colossus, where Giambologna’s original plaster model of The Rape of the Sabines is surrounded by works from the 15th–16th century Florentine Mannerist school. Continue to the Hall of the Prisoners, home to Michelangelo’s unfinished Prisoners—figures that seem to emerge from the marble, symbolizing the soul’s struggle for freedom. Here you’ll also see St. Matthew and the Palestrina Pietà, both linked to Michelangelo. The highlight is David, standing at the end of the gallery in all his grandeur. A masterpiece of Renaissance sculpture, David inspires with his size, precision, and emotional power. Your expert guide will offer insights and stories that bring each piece to life, making this a memorable visit to one of the world’s most treasured museums.

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.
