Museums / Galleries, Piazza della Signoria
Fodor's Review:
Florence's "Children's Museum" may be the best-kept public-access secret in Florence. A series of interactive tours includes "Encounters with History," during which participants meet and talk with Giorgio Vasari or Galileo Galilei and explore secret passageways. Events occur at three separate venues (Palazzo Vecchio, Museo Stibbert, and the Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza). Tours are in English and must absolutely be booked in advance.
