SHORE EXCURSION IN FLORENCE:

Leaving the pier, we'll head towoards Florence, reaching the city in about two hours, where we will have a pleasant guided walk through the streets of the city: starting from Piazza Santa Maria Novella we will reach Piazza del Duomo, where we can admire the complex of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore (from outside) with its imposing dome, the Baptistery (from outside) and Giotto's Bell Tower (from outside). Then we will head towards Piazza della Signoria, where we will stop to listen the guide and admire the architectural beauty of the building of the same name. Following the course of the Arno, we will walk towards the “Ponte Vecchio” where we will have the chance to browse among the stalls of the famous “Mercato del Porcellino”, so named for the statue near the lodge, which actually represents a wild boar on alert for the possible arrival of a hunter. Continuing our shore excursion, we will visit Piazza della Repubblica and we will get back to Piazza del Duomo , where we will have some free time to enjoy the city before ending the shore excursion. Then we will meet the group and our guide, to return to the bus that will lead us back to the harbor, in about two hours.
