  • Discover the Florence where Dante Alighieri lived from his birth (1265) to his exile (1302) and learn about the poet's life
  • Get the lowdown on "Fiorenza," as Dante called Florence when Giotto's Campanile, the Dome or even Palazzo Vecchio did not exist!
  • Visit the place where he is believed to have been born, and where he first saw Beatrice at the young age of nine

During Dante's lifetime, the city of Florence was a network of narrow streets, stone houses and wooden houses, maybe even more charming for its romantic artists and poets.

On this unique tour, join a guide and walk in Dante's footsteps, investigating the monuments, tombstones, characters, houses, towers and historic streets that led to the makings of a great poet.

The tour begins in Piazza Duomo, where the city's oldest building and the Baptistery of San Giovanni stands. Walk the steps of the Divine Comedy and gain a better understanding of Dante's masterpiece.

In medieval times, this square was the entrance to the city, and the so-called "Dante Quarter" begins here. In fact, if you walk looking upwards, you can see Dante's words carved on the walls of the ancient Florentine towers. Learn this and all the dazzling Dante facts your brain can take on this tour.

A great tour with an excellent, very kind and agreeable guide who is not only very knowledgeable about Dante but also about the great artists of the Renaissance. My only regret is that my friend and I didn't think to invite her to lunch right after the curse so we could keep discussing this beautiful city and the artists it has seen.
