Discover the extraordinary reopening of the Vasari Corridor on a guided tour. Walk over Florence, cross the Ponte Vecchio, and admire the city from a unique perspective.
Begin your tour at the Uffizi Gallery, from which you can directly access the Vasari Corridor. Admire works known throughout the world, such as the Venus of Botticelli, the Tondo Doni by Michelangelo, the Annunciation by Leonardo da Vinci, and the Venus of Urbino by Titian.
The Grand Duke of Tuscany commissioned the construction of the famous Corridor to the architect Giorgio Vasari in 1565, which took only 5 months. The structure allowed the Grand Duke Cosimo I dé Medici to move from one palace to another without mixing with ordinary people.
Walk through the passage as it was allowed only to a select few. Feel noble for a day as you explore the "Prince’s Path," an artistic masterpiece that offers a unique perspective of Florence.
