Day 5: July 13, 2025
Today we went into Florence, and had a full day in this city, the birthplace of the Renaissance.
We had a local guide, Bianca, who took us all on a guided walk around the main locations: Piazza della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio, Dante's House, Santa Maria Novella, and of course to see the Duomo. We saw the David (although not the original), the Perseus with Medusa's head, and the Vasari corridor. After, we had a leather workshop demonstration.
In the afternoon we had free time around the centre, for eating, shopping and exploring.
What a day, in one of the most beautiful places in Europe!
