Florence Tour

Florence Tour

Beautiful architecture, extensive history, and amazing food! Florence is a dream come true!
Wondering what to visit in Florence ?
Keep reading what we, as travel agents suggest for you:

1-Florence Cathedral

The Cattredrale di Santa Maria del Fiore is the one spot you must-see when you are in town. The outstanding medieval complex is the third-largest church in Italy and famous for its multi-colored marble exteriors.
The exterior is covered in a decorative mix of pink, white and green marble. The interior, by contrast, is pretty stark and plain but quite enjoyable on warm summer days since the temperature inside tends to be cooler. The mosaic pavements are certainly its main attraction within, which you can see in the photo above, aren’t they spectacular? They look like mosaic carpets.

2-Uffizi Gallery

The Uffizi Gallery is my personal favorite place in Florence. The former seat of the city magistrate is now home to one of the finest collections of art on this planet. Leonardo Da Vinci, Botticelli, Michaelangelo – the list of the world-famous artists on display in the venerable halls of the museum is as long as illustrious. You will also be able to see the outstanding collection of Roman sculptures of the Medici family on the upper floor. The museum is organized as a long labyrinth of rooms with amazing works of art displayed roughly in chronological order along a U-shaped Renaissance building which was never created to be a  museum.

3- Palazzo Vecchio

The Palazzo Vecchio in the center of Florence. Palazzo Vecchio offers Roman ruins, a Medieval fortress and amazing Renaissance chambers and paintings. A microcosm where art and history have been indissolubly bound for centuries.
The town hall of Florence should definitely be on your list of things to do in Florence. From the top of the 94-meter high tower, you will be able to enjoy the best view in the city. I suggest you discover the links with these symbolic animals at sunset, reaching the top of the tower to enjoy an unforgettable view over the red tiled roofs of Florence! Have a fun visit!

4-Piazza Della Signoria

It’s an L-shaped square in front of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy. It was named after the Palazzo della Signoria, also called Palazzo Vecchio. It is the main point of the origin and history of the Florentine Republic and still maintains its reputation as the political focus of the city. Piazza Della Signoria is the main square in Florence and offers a well-rounded view of the immense political and artistic presence of this Renaissance city. It is the meeting place of Florentines as well as the numerous tourists.

5-Food in Florence

Florence, which is in the region of Tuscany, has a medieval history that influences the traditional staples of Florentine and Tuscan cuisine. Another factor that affects the cuisine are the local ingredients like tomatoes, rosemary, porcini mushrooms, truffle mushrooms, olives, aubergines, oregano, basil, and a few varieties of meat, cheese, and bread.

Venice Tour: Ideal Guide for Tourists & Travel Agents

Kalemi Travel presents this Virtual Venice Tour that we as Travel agents and Leading B2B Online Travel Booking Company suggest and offer. Read through this Venice Tour to learn what this city is all about.

Venice is a city in northeastern Italy and the capital of the Veneto region. It is situated on a group of 118 small islands that are separated by canals and linked by over 400 bridges. This city built on the waters of the Adriatic Sea is dreamlike with its elaborate architecture, art-filled palaces, a palpable history that dates back over 1,000 years and, of course, its network of picturesque canals.

Wondering what to visit in Venice ? This Virtual Venice Tour is ideal for you as a travel enthusiasts or tour operator.

1- Piazza San Marco

Venice’s largest piazza, Piazza San Marco (or Saint Mark’s Square), is the city’s main meeting place. Lined with cafes, shops, and a number of museums, this magnificent piazza sits at the mouth of the Grand Canal. You’ve probably seen it in photographs, as it’s one of Europe’s most famous meeting places. Check out the intricately designed Saint Mark’s Basilica cathedral and listen to the bells of San Marco while sipping an Italian espresso and feeding the pigeons.

2-Grand Canal

Italian Canale Grande is the main waterway of Venice, Italy, following a natural channel that traces a reverse-S course from San Marco Basilica to Santa Chiara Church and divides the city into two parts. Slightly more than 2 miles (3 km) long and between 100 and 225 feet (30 and 70 metres) wide, the Grand Canal has an average depth of 17 feet (5 metres) and connects at various points with a maze of smaller canals. Venice from above looks like a big fish, not bad for a city on the sea! The Grand Canal it’s like a thick dark line that creates a kind of “big S” inside the fish.
By each side there are many magnificent buildings (from a period dated between XII and XVII century) that testify the richness and beauty of the art of the “Serenissima“ Republic.

3-Church of Saint Sebastian

This is a 16th-century Roman Catholic church located in the Dorsoduro sestiere of the Italian city of Venice. The church houses a cycle of paintings by the artist Paolo Veronese, as well as paintings by Tintoretto and Titian. The church is also a member of the Chorus Association of Venetian churches. It stands on the Campo di San Sebastiano by the Rio di San Basilio, close to the Giudecca Canal. It is one of the five votive churches in Venice, each one built after the passing of a plague through the city.[1] Following construction, the church was dedicated to a saint associated with the disease; in this case St. Sebastian.

4-Campanile di San Marco

The tower is 98.6 metres (323 ft) tall, and stands alone in a corner of St Mark’s Square, near the front of the basilica. It has a simple form, the bulk of which is a fluted brick square shaft, 12 metres (39 ft) wide on each side and 50 metres (160 ft) tall, above which is a loggia surrounding the belfry, housing five bells. A visit to the campanile was an attraction offered also in the past to illustrious guests, though the Lords were cautious in granting permission to foreigners for fear that they might survey the layout of the city and its ports for military purposes. Galileo used the campanile as an observatory to study the skies and it was there in1609 that he demonstrated his telescope to the Lords.

5-The Rialto Bridge

Is the oldest of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal in Venice, Italy. Connecting the sestieri (districts) of San Marco and San Polo, it has been rebuilt several times since its first construction as a pontoon bridge in the 12th century, and is now a significant tourist attraction in the city. It was designed and built by Antonio da Ponte and his nephew, Antonio Contino, following a design competition in the city.

Known as the Italian capital of fashion and design, which offer a sublime mix of historical and contemporary architecture with the imposing Duomo Cathedral at the center of it.

Wondering what to do in Milan? Then this Milan Tour is just for you.

The Duomo in Milan is absolutely a must-see. From the outside, it is just stunning and right up there with Notre Dame in Paris.

2-La Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

It’s Italy’s oldest active shopping mall and a major landmark of Milan, Italy. Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is an ornate shopping arcade with a star-studded list of luxury emporiums, international chain and department stores, and trendy gourmet eateries, located on Piazza Duomo, to the left of the front entrance of Milan’s majestic cathedral (Duomo). The Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II contains brands such as Prada, Gucci and Louis Vuitton, as well as other high-end boutiques.

3-The Royal Palace of Milan

5-Try traditional food

If you are a food lover you are in the perfect place to find lots of choices. You’ll find the focus is on meat, stews, rice, cheese, and butter.
-Perhaps the most classic Milanese dish, risotto alla milanese elevates a simple rice dish with one of the most regal of ingredients – saffron. The result is a creamy risotto.
-Panettone is one of Italy’s most popular Christmas breads, and it originally comes from Milan. It’s a sweet and light bread studded with candied fruit.
-The cotoletta alla Milanese can be found almost everywhere in the city, unlike other traditional recipes that are more often the realm of the home cook. It’s rich without being over the top, which makes it something that can be eaten with (slightly) more regularity.
-Minestrone Milanese- Together with vegetables of all types – cabbage, beets, celery, spinach, parsley, tomatoes and more, depending on what’s in season – the rice is cooked in a pleasant if not particularly noteworthy broth.
-Gorgonzola- Gorgonzola comes in two forms: dolce (literally, “sweet”) which is sweeter and creamier, and piccante (literally, “spicy”) which has a spicy, pungent bite.

In the 70s, dictator Pappadopulous ordered to mentain white and blue colors of buildings as tribute to the Greek flag. All subsequent governments upheld the decree when they noticed how many tourists go to Greece to admire an idyllic view of white and blue houses on the rocks surrounded by the sea.
