Itinerary

Choose a morning or afternoon tour and meet your private guide outside the Academia Gallery. Immerse yourself in the world of Michelangelo with the help of insights from your guide.

It took a 26-year-old Michelangelo three years to carve the 'David' from a piece of marble another sculptor had previously abandoned. Learn how this figure became a symbol of courage, strength, and power for the Florentine Republic at its peak.

Admire the unfinished Michelangelo sculptures that line the hall near the entrance as well, and – after the tour concludes – feel free to explore the rest of the museum at your leisure.
