Tour the glorious Renaissance city of Florence, with its graceful Ponte Vecchio, the imposing Duomo, and the Accademia Gallery, including Michelangelo’s 500-year-old statue David. Through the Student Ambassador Program, young travelers (ages 7–17) can explore their environment and experience a full range of age-appropriate activities designed to stimulate curiosity and encourage an understanding of Italian history and art.
