“Did the dome climb and bell tower climb in very hot weather so it was tiring and sweaty but the views you get from the top are phenomenal, as long as the sky's are clear. You do get rushed along at certain points of the climb if you stop and start taking photos of inside the cathedral and once at the top only have a short time before they tell you it's time to climb down. I won't say that ruined any of the experience for me. The bell tower you can spend more time at the higher levels with opportunities to sit down and relax. 400+ steps in each…”

Join an English guided climb through Florence Cathedral, its rarely opened terraces, and Brunelleschi’s dome. You’ll tackle 153 steps to the terraces and 310 more to the summit, with guides such as Lorenzo, Chiara, Marta, and Silvia sharing art and architectural stories. Access to the Baptistery, bell tower, and museum follows.

“Our tour guide Lorenzo was a great storyteller, highly knowledgeable and really took great care of his group. The views inside and outside of the Domo were truly unique and breathtaking. I enjoyed the vigorous stair climbing, especially because it was raining outside and I wouldn’t be getting my steps in. I would not recommend this for anyone who is very tall over 6’3”, is claustrophobic, afraid of heights or gets winded climbing up three flights of stairs- if none of those are applicable sign up and you’ll have an incredible experience!”

“We were able to skip the line to view the inside of the Duomo and the climb to the roof of the Duomo, but everything else included with the experience had a line you had to wait in. The guide was good, but gave basic information about the construction and history of the Duomo. The 30 minute tour is spent entirely in the Duomo and then you are free to do the roof climb and view the other buildings and viewing areas around the Duomo. The experience was worth the price as you could skip the lengthy line to see the Duomo and the roof climb and you could see…”
