The soils are a mix of marine, alluvial, and volcanic origins, which contribute complexity and finesse to the wines.Ornellaia is most famous for its flagship wine, also named Ornellaia — a luxurious Bordeaux-style blend typically composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. The style is full-bodied, rich, and elegant, balancing power with refinement, and capable of long aging.By this tour you will be able to see and taste this italian excellence !

In this 2-hour private tour, you will explore the Basilica of Santa Croce, the largest Franciscan church in the world.Santa Croce houses frescoes by Cimabue and Giotto, and the tombs of many important Italian artists like Michelangelo, Rossini, Machiavelli, and Galileo Galilei.In the beginning, Santa Croce housed the graves of the families living in the district; then, in the fifteenth century, it became the guardian of the memory of illustrious Florentines by hosting the tombs of the Chancellors of the Republic Leonardo Bruni and Carlo Marsuppini.The funerary monument dedicated to Michelangelo, built in 1564, and the one made for Galileo later on, inspired Ugo Foscolo who, in the poem entitled "Dei Sepolcri" written in 1807, described Santa Croce as "the Temple of the Italian glories", marking its change from Pantheon of the town of Florence to Pantheon of the Italians. At that point, it became necessary to complete the façade, which remained unfinished for more than three centuries.The decoration of the façade was completed in 1865, commemorating Dante’s centenary.On that occasion, the monument dedicated to the poet was set in the middle of the square.Sixteen family chapels help compose the Basilica: Among the most remarkable we find the Pazzi Chapel by Brunelleschi, located in the first cloister, the Bardi Chapel, and the Peruzzi Chapel, the latter two frescoed by Giotto.After the guided tour, you will enjoy one of the best Ice Cream in Florence.

Florence: The Duomo Complex Private Tour with Giotto's Bell Tower climb
The Duomo square offers a breathtaking view, especially at sunset, when the sun's rays "light up" the polychrome marble of the buildings that form the religious complex of the city.

The stylistic differences can be explained by the fact that the construction works went on for about four centuries.

The Dome, with its imposing size, dominates the whole square.Following a chronological order, the visit to the religious centre of Florence starts with the Baptistery.
