Your experience

As part of the tour, an exploration of the segment of a gallery dedicated to the extraordinary collection of musical instruments collected by the Medici family will be the first stop.

All participants will be able to see some of the most valuable Stradivari, the oldest piano in existence, and a selection of other exceptional instruments.

Participants will enjoy the presence of an expert/guide as they proceed to the Tribuna di De Fabris, where they will view the Four Prisoners with the Michelangelo sculpture of San Matteo and will see the stunning David.

Are you ready to discover the many stories associated with the Carrara marble block from which Michelangelo created the Bible figure? We will give you access to the stories behind each of Michelangelo's six sculptures, as well as insight into their respective histories and mysteries.

The Accademia Gallery's admission ticket will be honored for the entire day.

After finishing your tour, take some time to continue your appreciation of Michelangelo's creative genius, but don't miss out on viewing other wonderful works of art throughout the gallery.

For example, many beautiful plaster casts of works by Lorenzo Bartolini can be found in the Gipsoteca.

The gallery's large collection of gold-coated altarpieces can be seen on the second floor of the building, and there are also many other Renaissance paintings from the 15th June, and 16th Century.
