Overview

Step inside the quiet spiritual heart of Florence.
Slow down and discover one of Florence’s most intimate Renaissance treasures.

Inside the former Dominican convent of San Marco, art was created not to impress, but to inspire silence, reflection and devotion. With your private guide, walk through cloisters, quiet corridors and monks’ cells frescoed by Fra Angelico, including the famous Annunciation.

Along the way, uncover the story of Savonarola, the preacher who challenged Medici Florence, and see how beauty, faith and power shaped one of the city’s most fascinating hidden places.

A peaceful private tour for travelers who want to experience Florence beyond the crowds, at a slower and more meaningful pace.

Ready to discover how a painter of silence became one of the most admired artists of popes, preachers and powerful Florentine families?
