    5. Michelangelo's Statue of David

      Finally to the Accademia Gallery, to see Michelangelo’s magnificent statue of David. Please note this outdoor sightseeing tour requires lots of energy for walking. And since kids, and adults too, can get very tired from being on their feet all day, we suggest this tour happen at the beginning of your holiday in Florence. Also, we suggest making it your only tour of the day. During the tour there will be a free gelato tasting!
