Florence Skip the Line tour Michelangelo 's David-Accademia

Questa non è un'esperienza promossa da agenzie che utilizzano guide standard per tour standard, questo è il tour di MarioGesu: MarioGesu è una guida nativa di Firenze e "famosa" nella sua città non solo per i suoi tour originali ma anche per recitare Dante negli eventi cittadini . Il suo tour è di alto profilo, rivolto a coppie, famiglie con bambini e amici, ma soprattutto a chi vuole vivere un'esperienza emozionante nel cuore artistico e nei significati del grande Michelangelo. Se il David è il fulcro, l'apice dei primi lavori, la sorpresa sarà scoprire come l'artista “supera” il David con i suoi “Prigionieri”, a pochi metri di distanza, realizzati attraverso lo stile del “non finito”. Scegliendo questa esperienza, facilmente comprensibile a tutti perché espressa con immagini e metafore (quindi di facile comprensione anche per i più piccoli), parteciperai ad una prospettiva unica basata sul processo di creazione: il filo rosso che lega il David, ma non solo, con la Cappella Sistina, la ragione artistica e spirituale del più grande artista di tutti i tempi.
