Private tour of Santa Croce Basilica with an art historian

Step into the 'Pantheon of Italian Glories' on a private tour led by an art historian. 

The Basilica of Santa Croce is far more than a collection of funerary monuments; it is a living laboratory for the evolution of Western art. 

Together, we will explore Giotto's narrative revolution in the Bardi and Peruzzi Chapels, where space and human emotion first found a new visual language.

We will continue by admiring Donatello’s Crucifix and the Cavalcanti Annunciation, Renaissance masterpieces that harmonize with Arnolfo di Cambio’s solemn architecture. 

Along the way, we will pay tribute to the tombs of Michelangelo, Galileo, and Machiavelli, discovering how this extraordinary basilica became a symbol of Italian cultural identity.

This in-depth cultural experience reveals the profound connection between faith, art, and history in the heart of Florence’s Franciscan district.
