Florence: Accademia Gallery Private Tour & Michelangelo’s David
Overview
Private Accademia Gallery Tour: See Michelangelo's David with a Local Expert
Experience Florence's most iconic museum on a private, 2-hour guided tour of the Accademia Gallery — home to Michelangelo's David and one of the world's finest collections of Renaissance sculpture. Your reserved-time entry ticket is included, so your group walks in at your scheduled slot, ready to explore.
See Michelangelo's David Up Close
Stand before the original David, one of the most recognized sculptures in art history. Your private local guide shares the techniques Michelangelo used, the story behind the commission, and why this Florence landmark still defines Renaissance art centuries later — context you won't get exploring solo.
