Private Inside the Palace, Then Four Tuscan Wines You Pay For Yourself
Ratings collected by Viator and Tripadvisor
FlorenceA private visit inside the Palazzo Medici Riccardi, the first house the family owned and one of the defining buildings of Renaissance Florence.
With a guide working for your group alone, the palace goes at your speed. The Chapel of the Magi is part of it, along with the stories, the ambitions and the political calculations that took the Medici from a bank to the most powerful family in Europe.
Being private, the visit can lean towards whatever you actually want to know, which a group of thirty cannot.
It ends with an optional tasting of four Tuscan wines at a local wine shop, Chianti and Chianti Classico among them. That tasting is not in the tour price and is paid on the spot.
