My wife and I won't have much time in Florence, but at least in pictures, I think Giotto's Tower offers one hell of a great view of both Brunelleschi's Dome and the city of Florence. If it doesn't require a huge dedication of time, we might want to work it in.
According to Rick Steves, Giotto's Tower "offers an easier, less crowded, and faster climb than the Duomo's dome." So, assuming there isn't a line when we go, how long would it take a young, reasonably fit couple to get to the top, take a few photos, and get back down?
I realize it would just be an estimate, but it will help. Thanks.
