Things to do & see in Florenceย 

Accademia Gallery
@JennyWalz
You can buy tickets through the link below (which includes an EBook for more details/mini guide). If you do not buy tickets in advance like my family, you can find 'skip the line' entry tickets just past the main entrance (for the same price as online tickets)! Walk past the main entrance towards the Librarian Gozzini, right next to this, you will find the Official Ticket Office!

Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore
@JennyWalz
Book your tickets in advance - I recommend the Brunelleschi Pass to see everything and have the dome climb included.

Cappelle Medicee
@JennyWalz
Stopping in the Museo Dells Cappelle Medicee to visit the Cappella Dei Principi (Chapel of the Princes) is SO worth it! We had the entire Chapel to ourselves when we visited, it was one of the most stunning Chapels I have ever visited!

Piazzale Michelangelo
@JennyWalz
Not only is this one of the best views of Florence, it is a perfect spot to hang out and watch the sunset! Most people will be sitting on the steps, but you can find a spot anywhere along the railing for a perfect view! Arrive early if you want to sit, these steps do get pretty crowded! For an even better night, bring a bottle of wine and/or snacks!

Brunelleschi's dome
@JennyWalz
Book tickets in advance - you have to select a time and date for these and they will sell out, so plan this in advance! Where you buy the tickets are linked below! You can get a few different passes, they have different access for each, but I recommend the Brunelleschi Pass so you can climb to the top of the Dome!

Giotto's Bell Tower
@JennyWalz
Buy tickets in advance for this one as well, if you do not get the full pass (as I talked about for the Dome), you will have to book timeslots for this too - it does not sell out as fast so it is a good option if the Dome is sold out! But it is worth climbing to the top of both, the Dome and this bell tower!

A stunning garden to walk through, but also a great stop to see the city from above!

This was my families favorite place! Yes, it is a popular tourist spot, but I loved it and that never bothers me. Reservations can be made online ahead of time!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Vacation planning made easy โœˆ๏ธ From mobile-friendly maps and city guides to full itinerary planning, vacation planning has never been easier. You'll find everything from my favorite hidden gems, whether it is food, beaches, or little European towns, to the best tourist destinations in my guides. Looking for personalized vacation planning? I offer many flexible options, whether you are looking for destination recommendations with the best hotels or you would prefer a full itinerary for your bucket-list destination! Check out my services here or shoot me at email: jenny.walz@fora.travel About Me: ๐Ÿ“I spend most of the year living in Europe with my husband, he plays hockey professionally while I spend most of my time traveling. Last year we lived in France and now we are in Germany! ๐ŸŽฟ Skiing is my favorite thing to do, all winter, you will find me somewhere in the mountains chasing the best snow. ๐Ÿ” The mountains are my happy place (even when I am not skiing). I love being outdoors and adventurous trips are definitely my favorite to plan! ๐Ÿ Most of my "city-travel" is planned around food and restaurants I want to try! I love trying new foods and learning about new cultures. One of my favorite things to do in new cities, is take a cooking class to learn about the food and culture! ๐ŸŒ My favorite countries that I have visited are Italy and Morocco! โœˆ๏ธ I work as a travel advisor for FORA Travel and while I love planning luxury vacations, I much prefer realistic travel that everyone can enjoy, which is why I started creating these guides! Travel itself is a luxury, but it does not have to come with the luxurious price tags. I am always budget conscious when planning custom itineraries, but I will always be honest about what is realistic! Follow me on instagram for more travel inspiration and trips @travels.jw โ˜€๏ธ
