The dark side of Florence with an architecture expert

Join me in an after-dark walk through the historic center of Florence to discover the darkest and bloodiest side of its history. From the Middle Ages to the late Renaissance, I'll tell you about murders, crimes, plots and punishment that really happened in the past. And of course, a Dark Florence tour can only take place with darkness, so this is an evening tour. • The Dark Florence walking tour will touch some of the most famous places of the city, such as Piazza della Signoria, but you'll be able to see them from a different point of view: as crime scenes of very cold cases. • I'll dig inside of the Medici's closets to resume their hidden skeletons and I'll show you some almost invisible details of Florence revealing the passion of florentines for unforgettable and creative punishments. • This is not a ghost tour, all the stories you'll hear are true! • Experience the magic of Florence at night, as the quiet streets and dimmed lights transport you back in time, and hear whispered tales of conspiracy, ambition, and power plays that bring the city’s past to life. The evening will end with a visit to one of my favorite local bars, where we’ll toast to Florence’s history and reflect on what we’ve learned.

Florence sans file d'attente : le David de Michel-Ange

Questa non è un'esperienza promossa da agenzie che utilizzano guide standard per tour standard, questo è il tour di MarioGesu: MarioGesu è una guida nativa di Firenze e "famosa" nella sua città non solo per i suoi tour originali ma anche per recitare Dante negli eventi cittadini . Il suo tour è di alto profilo, rivolto a coppie, famiglie con bambini e amici, ma soprattutto a chi vuole vivere un'esperienza emozionante nel cuore artistico e nei significati del grande Michelangelo. Se il David è il fulcro, l'apice dei primi lavori, la sorpresa sarà scoprire come l'artista “supera” il David con i suoi “Prigionieri”, a pochi metri di distanza, realizzati attraverso lo stile del “non finito”. Scegliendo questa esperienza, facilmente comprensibile a tutti perché espressa con immagini e metafore (quindi di facile comprensione anche per i più piccoli), parteciperai ad una prospettiva unica basata sul processo di creazione: il filo rosso che lega il David, ma non solo, con la Cappella Sistina, la ragione artistica e spirituale del più grande artista di tutti i tempi.
