Vasarian Corridor and Uffizi Gallery
Giorgio Vasari's corridor, built for Cosimo I de`Medici, joins Palazzo Vecchio, political seat of Florence, to the Pitti Palace, opulent home ofthe Medici Dukes. Passing over the Ponte Vecchio`s shops and through a church on its way to the Pitti Palace, it was completed in an amazingly short 5 months. This rarely accessible passage gives visitors unique views over the Arno and entry to an impressive collection of seldom-seen self-portraits by important 16th to 20th century artists and other masterpieces. Here you visit both the Vasari Corridor and the Uffizi Gallery: home to the world’s most important art collection. The tour finishes inside the Uffizi where you can continue your visit on your own.
The magic of this truly exclusive and unique experience will
linger in your memory forever.
