1h30
About this activity
Experience the first LGTB tour of Florence with a pleasant stroll around the main streets of the city.
Your official gay-friendly local guide will tell you about the stories of the Medici family and the gay life during the Renaissance. Already at this time Florence was an active center for gay relationships.
Right after, you will make a stop at the highlight of this tour, the David.
There, you will rediscover the life of Michelangelo as never been told before. From an innovative and philosophical point of view, focused on his personal and sentimental side. You will discover if the David was a model of the time, if at that time they already knew about his homosexual condition and about his true relationship with the popes in Rome of the 1500s, full of dark intrigues and corruptions. Have shared with you what centuries of censorship have hidden and despised.
In addition, you will also take a look of the rest of the Accademia Gallery and its most outstanding artists such as Botticelli, Giotto or an original Stradivarius made for a well-known homosexual great prince of the Medici family with lots of history and legends behind it.
To ensure that your experience is of the highest quality and intimate, the group will never exceed 15 participants and you will have priority entry to the museum with your gay-friendly guide who, after the tour, will happily give you good advice on LGBT life in Florence.
