Spira guide you around three stunning

Visit Pisa with its Leaning Tower and

Cathedral, where Galileo is said to have

first pondered pendulums.

In Florence, admire Brunelleschi’s daring

dome atop the cathedral and his Old

Sacristy at San Lorenzo with its Ptolemaic

planetarium. Enjoy elaborate collections at

the Pitti Palace and Speculo Museum, and

catch an early example of artistic

perspective in the Brancacci Chapel.
