Activity itinerary

Viale Michelangelo (Pass by)

The Imperial Ascent: We begin at Piazza Ferrucci. Our journey starts under the shade of elegant 19th-century tree-lined avenues, climbing towards the summit as the horizon begins to unfold

Piazzale Michelangelo

15m
Admission ticket included

• Piazzale Michelangelo (The Terrace of the World): We reach the city's most famous landmark. Here, Florence lies at your feet: a 360° panoramic view where Brunelleschi’s Duomo and the Ponte Vecchio feel close enough to touch.

Fontane delle Rampe del Poggi

5m
Admission ticket included

• The Descent of the Waters: We head down the spectacular Poggi Ramps. A dreamlike descent through waterfalls, hidden grottoes, and monumental stone fountains that look like a scene from a classic film.

Porta San Miniato (Pass by)

• Medieval Walls and Porta San Miniato: At the foot of the hill, we skirt the imposing 14th-century Medieval Wall. We will pause to admire the majesty of Porta San Miniato, a historical treasure viewed from the outside to remain within the tranquility of the city’s green belt.

Via del Monte alle Croci (Pass by)

• Grove Path The Secret Olive: From the gate, we begin a second ascent along a rustic path surrounded by olive trees. This is an oasis of silence and fresh air that transports you to the Tuscan countryside in just a few minutes.

Basilica San Miniato al Monte

7m
Admission ticket included

• San Miniato al Monte (The Crown Jewel): Your effort is rewarded upon reaching this thousand-year-old Abbey. With its white and green marble facade and views even higher than those of the Piazzale, it is the most spiritual and fascinating place in all of Florence.

Piazza Francesco Ferrucci (Pass by)

• The Golden Return: We descend gently, enjoying the evening light, to close this unforgettable circuit back at Piazza Ferrucci.
