Beautiful Views from Giotto’s Bell Tower - I was a little unsure about tackling the steps at first, but after mustering the courage I made my way up Giotto’s Bell Tower — and I’m so glad I did. The views over Florence are absolutely stunning.
The staircase is quite narrow in places, so be prepared to step aside to let others pass. Thankfully, there are several floors along the way where you can pause, catch your breath, and sit down before continuing to the top. It’s well worth the climb for the incredible panorama waiting above.

Top day! - 10.15 ‘skip the queue’ access literally enabled us to be the first two people to enter the cathedral. The cathedral crypt was fascinating. The tower was definitely worth the 415 steps.

Art, history, and breathtaking beauty - As the queue to enter the magnificent Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore was incredibly long and the tour of the dome fully booked, we opted to take the bell tower tour which also enabled us to visit the Cathedral, crypt and Baptistery.
Climbing Giotto’s Bell Tower, with its 414 steps, is both a challenge and a reward. At the top you can enjoy sweeping views of Florence with the red-tiled roofs stretching toward the Arno and the dome rising majestically at eye level.
The vast interior of the Cathedral, crowned by Brunelleschi’s famous dome, reveals centuries of art, faith, and engineering brilliance. Beneath the cathedral, the crypt of Santa Reparata offers a quiet glimpse into the city’s early Christian roots, with ancient mosaics and the remains of the original church that once stood on the site.
Across from the cathedral, there is the Baptistery of San Giovanni dazzles with its golden mosaics and historic bronze doors.

Amazing View of Florence - We walked up to the top of the Bell Tower and were treated to an amazing view of the entire city. It was worth the cost and the exercise required to get up to the top.
The museum (Museo) was also a very cool experience with lots of really nice sculptures and a comprehensive exploration of the history of Il Duomo.
Grazie!

Time it so you've reached the top by sunset! - Its lots of steps but worth the climb. We happened to reach the level just below the bells as the began to chime! Once to the top level we enjoyed picking out the landmarks below. Such a beautiful city. People on top of the dome waved back at us! It was like being on top of the world. Beautiful.

Nice experience, a bit... - Nice experience, a little more expensive than the Opera Santa Maria del Fiore tickets, but
d elsewhere were finished and you can not go to Florence without seeing these wonders!

Mom with two kids - There was no specific meeting point in the piazza. The guide had no sign. The instructions were too vague and caused us to be ten minutes late. The guide did not explain how the three day ticket works.
