Accademia Gallery Monolingual Tour from Montecatini

Start your day in Montecatini and meet our driver with shuttle service to Florence. Upon arrival at 9:00 am there is a a bit of free time. After, you’ll visit the Academia Gallery with our guides. Immerse yourself in Michelangelo’s art and enjoy his most famous work, the statue of David, and other important masterpieces.

The young Michelangelo sculpted the statue of David in three years, starting from a huge block of rough marble. The result was an absolutely beautiful, imposing sculpture, the real icon of the Renaissance ideal. He portrayed a magnificent nude young man in his full physical vigor, whose intense expression of force and courage, which stemmed from his absolute faith in God, was taken as a symbol of the power and invincibility of the Republic of Florence at the height of its splendor.

At the end you have free time in Florence before the shuttle to go back to Montecatini.
