Florence is literally a dream.

[@ihatekillerclowns]

or a nightmare for the locals

[@rext8949]

We owe the Medicis a huge debt . They could have spent all their monies on eating , drinking and wenching but they commissioned the greatest and the best to make superb works of art which would outlive them and give pleasure to the succeeding generations .Entire Florence is a grand poster showing off all its different attractions , manmade as well as natural .

[@ronn5592]

Great point

[@giulianoilfilosofo7927]

They spent most of their money on controlling the Papacy, unifying Tuscany in the Great Duchy (first country in the world to abolish death penalty), and gaining the throne of France with Caterina De Medici, although for a short while.

[@commanderfreaky]

True, but I'm pretty sure they still did all the drinking, eating, and wenching while being philanthropic lol

[@ellietmaples3577]

There are so many wonderful places in Italy. I feel as if you need a solid month to really explore and experience everything this beautiful country has to offer.

[@theproperenglishman]

You could spend years exploring…

[@bluesisyphe]

You need much more to explore and experience Italy. One month is not even enough for Rome

[@gmar7836]

Italy and Switzerland are 2 countries everyone must go to

[@ledues3336]

[@mehrifazeli3578]

Hi thanks 👍🎄

[@smimtiaz4556]

Tuscan is beautiful....

[@SallyMcDade]

Thank you, for this video!

[@avainautumn]

Florence is so interesting to me. I usually hate museums with a passion because of all the walking and not being able to understand certain styles of art, because I'm not an artist. But the Renaissance art is beautiful enough to keep me interested! I never expected it. I got to see the Birth of Venus in the Uffizi in person, it was great. And the Duomo, Piazzale Michelangelo, the cobblestone streets, the musicians playing in piazzas...unforgettable. I remember going to get pizza in the evening, and seeing some event going on every night in the piazza near my hotel. Plays, music, art. it was rainy when I went, but that added so much to the whole vibe. It was like walking right through a dreamy, romantic, Renaissance world come to life. I was so inspired that I'm writing a novel set during the Florentine Renaissance. I really wanna go back to Florence for "research" lol

[@user-vh1sh1xl5k]

Great to see so many people in Pisa and Lucca on their bicycles!

[@kevinhudson]

Rick, this was wonderful. Thank you for sharing such a great vision of Italy!

[@kakashie]

We're going this August! Can't believe we'll be in Italy! Someone slap me, this can't be a dream. Starting with a week in Venice, then Florence, lazy days in Cinque Terre, a stop in Pisa, and capped off in Rome.

[@lenavera2577]

[@gaylebrosnan-watters5363]

Lucky dogs!!!

[@corradopalmerini4076]

My family is from Lucca, ive been 6 or so times..See? Walls do work! Lol. Great episode. Thank You!

[@mirellasanseviero472]

Firenze e' d'oro, Fiesole e' bella ! ( G.Puccini dal Gianni Schicchi ) E' proprio vero!

[@richardsmith9067]

Headed back to Cortona and Firenze in September 2015. Loved our stay in both last year.

[@sutats]

15:42 Reverse dry humping. Rick's camera crew really have fun doing what they do. I've watched several of Rick's videos and the crew always manages to somehow sprinkle in amusing clips of amorous lovers every time. Happy travelling.

[@mohammedelammari7747]

شكرا عالمجهود الرائع والعرض السلس والحقيقه كاننا ذهبنا الي هناك

[@raitisfreimanis]

@Johannes Liechtenauer Google translate: "Thank you for the wonderful world of effort and the smooth presentation and the fact we went there".

[@SanaaStark]

Lucca is quite beautiful. The Medici's were clever to invest in people like Boticelli and Michaelangelo

[@MsBackstager]

Hi Florence - so friendly.
