Pitti Palace, Palatine Gallery & Boboli Gardens Guided Tour

About this experience

Pitti Palace, Palatine Gallery & Boboli Gardens Guided Tour This comprehensive guided tour takes you through three of Florence's most significant cultural treasures in one seamless experience. You'll start at the grand Pitti Palace, once home to the powerful Medici family, before exploring the world-renowned Palatine Gallery with its collection of Renaissance masterpieces by Raphael, Titian, and Caravaggio. The tour concludes in the sprawling Boboli Gardens, where manicured lawns, ancient sculptures, and panoramic city views await. Skip the entrance queues and follow your expert guide through the palace's noble floor, where lavishly decorated rooms tell the story of Florence's royal heritage. Your small group tour ensures personalised attention as you discover hidden details like the recently uncovered 18th-century royal bathrooms that reveal fascinating insights into court life. The experience combines indoor artistic treasures with outdoor Renaissance landscaping, offering both art enthusiasts and casual visitors a complete picture of Medici grandeur.
