Description

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.
