This iconic gallery is a treasure trove of Renaissance art, offering an unparalleled glimpse into the genius of legendary artists like Michelangelo. Home to the world's largest collection of Michelangelo's sculptures, including the breathtaking David, the gallery captivates visitors with its exquisite collection of paintings, sculptures, and musical instruments.

Tourist attraction
Ponte Vecchio
The Ponte Vecchio is one of the most famous bridges in Florence, and when you visit, you'll walk across this iconic bridge full of history, medieval buildings, and sparkling jewelry shops. The bridge consists of three arches and was built in 1345 by Taddeo Gaddi, replacing older versions from Roman times. Long ago, butcher shops lined the bridge, but the Medici family replaced all the shops with wooden shutters, goldsmiths, and jewelers to clean up the area.
As you explore, look up to see the Vasari Corridor, a secret walkway the Medici used to move between Palazzo Vecchio and Palazzo Pitti. In World War II, it was the only bridge the Nazis didn’t destroy. In the middle, you’ll find a statue of Benvenuto Cellini, where you can leave a love lock like many tourists do—another reason to experience the charm of the Ponte Vecchio for yourself.
Visit Ponte Vecchio to walk through history, enjoy the views, and create your special moment in Florence!
Religious Site
Basilica of Santa Croce
Step into the heart of Florence and discover the awe-inspiring Basilica of Santa Croce, a magnificent testament to art, faith, and history. Nestled in the vibrant city of Florence, Italy, this monumental complex is a masterpiece of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, known as the 'Temple of the Italian Glories.' It serves not only as a place of worship but also as a monumental tribute to Italy's most illustrious figures. Spanning over 12,000 square meters, Santa Croce is a treasure trove of art, culture, and history, offering a captivating journey through centuries of Florentine and Renaissance heritage. With its stunning frescoes and the final resting places of legends like Michelangelo and Galileo, Santa Croce offers an unforgettable journey through art and history. This unique hub where spirituality, beauty, and memory intertwine is a must-visit destination for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in the soul of Italy.
Piazza San Marco
Piazza San Marco, or St. Mark’s Square, is the main public square in Venice, Italy, and one of the most famous in the world. When you visit, you’ll see landmarks like St. Mark’s Basilica, the Doge’s Palace, the Bell Tower, and the Clock Tower. Napoleon called it “the drawing room of Europe,” and as you walk through the square, you’ll feel the rich history of the Venetian Republic all around you.
You can explore museums, admire golden mosaics, spot the winged lion, and enjoy the open space where people gather. During acqua alta (high tides), the San Marco square often floods, but raised walkways help you get around. Don’t miss the Piazzetta di San Marco, which leads to the Grand Canal and two tall granite columns that mark an important piece of Venetian history.

Got ourselves a 7-day Global Pass and travelled through 5 countries. Buying the pass was easy but how to use the app for activating the pass will need some time to learn. However, fear not as there are many experienced people out willing to share. Do some readings and join some fb travel groups and you will surprised by the information available. The pass was flexible but the train schedule can be unpredictable which means you need to be updated requently to stay on course of your journey. We only experienced one hicccup on one of the trips at Berlin due to seat reservation issue and missing the connecting train due to delay of the first train. The other trips were as planned.

The Trenitalia Pass was simple to use and it’s suitable for first time tourist to use. However, it’s a little bit expensive, but for the convenience sake. Do note that you will need to plan your route and journey in advance so that you can reserve your seats.

Didn't have to queue when booking via Klook, but have to remember to collect tickets just outside at the cafe by showing them the booking id

The ticket was sent one day before to us. it was easy to enter using first door; short queue. just remember to have an ID or Passport to cross check the name (as they ckeck) and be on time. It does not include the Vasari Walk, but good thing is it has Audio guide which helps to know which parts is must see and which parts can just skim through (note: official audio guide is 6 euro additional on spot). Overall, happy.

The line to enter the church was very long, and the Italian tour guide had a very strong accent. If you're a native Mandarin speaker, you'll need to pay close attention to understand the explanations 😇. However, being able to skip the long line in the Italian heat and enter directly is worth the price of admission! I highly recommend this tour.

This was my second time visiting this gallery, and honestly, I'd happily go a third time!
I visited on a Sunday, and there were no lines. I think that's thanks to the e-ticket. I first approached the woman outside, who exchanged my e-ticket for a paper one, and everything went quickly and smoothly. I got the audio guide in Russian. It's not super detailed, but it's quite decent. Important note: you need to leave your passport or ID for the audio guide, and they only return it at the end. I didn't know that... luckily, I happened to have my passport with me. It took me exactly 2 hours to visit the entire gallery with a short break and a trip to the restroom. I didn't stop for too long at each painting, so in my opinion, 2 hours is the optimal time. If you want to examine each work carefully, allow 3-4 hours.
My impressions are only positive.

This tour is perfect for those staying in Florence who want to visit the surrounding towns. The itinerary for the day is as follows: 7:20 AM Meet at the Florence SMN train station – Pisa (1 hour) – Winery near San Gimignano (Lunch + 3 wine tastings) – San Gimignano (1 hour) – Siena (1 hour) – 7:30 PM Return to SMN train station. The whole trip is quite compact, with only about 1 hour in each location. If you want to explore properly, the time is not really enough. However, its strength is its convenience, as you travel by bus and it's not tiring, so it's still very suitable. The tour guide, Barbara, is very friendly and responsible. I recommend this tour! (The entire tour is explained in English).
