We were lucky enough to spend a day last September on the Visiting Leonardo day trip from Florence which visits the museum and town of Vinci in the morning before going to Leonardo's birthplace and a local winery for the afternoon. The museum is well worth the trip alone. While a little short on original artifacts from the time of... More

Even if you knew a lot about Leonardos work you'll still be in store for some surprises at the museum. The models were great and thanks to the traveller who recommended getting an English iPod guide for the tour as a lot of the information is not translated into English. You won't be just experiencing a really good museum but... More

the location of the museum is perched on the top of the hill in Vinci right in the prettiest part. Its lovely to spend some time wandering around the streets in the area, but the museum is definitely worth a visit too. Tickets were 7euros each, but i'd recommend paying extra for the English guide since the Italian description of... More
