Best experience - A great way to see the highlights of both museums. And skip the line tickets were worth it. I wouldn’t want to do it any other way

A great way to learn about art history and all the major artists of the time. - This was an amazing tour. I know very little of art history but our guide really taught me so much about the different periods of art and how to identify the characteristics of paintings to identify the period. I learned so much about Leonardo da Vinci, he was a truly impressive artist. Seeing David up close and learning about the details of how and why it was made was so cool. I highly recommend this tour, our guide was wonderful.

Best tour guide ever - Francesca took us to see ‘David’ !! (Not the gallery) - not only was she pretty with impeccable English for the 6 in our tour, she held our attention, was exceptionally knowledgeable and mightily well educated and informed, funny and at times welcomely ‘cheeky’! But as she was at the university and had studied so hard and graduated, Francesca really really loved her subject. This enthusiasm and appreciation of the arts is what makes an incredible tour guide. She was like no other. Well done and thankyou. Clare and Ian from England. April 28th 2024.

Florence Museum Tour - We couldn’t have asked for a BETTER GUIDE! The tour was beyond informative and throughly enjoyable. Our guide Giana was wonderful and her passion and knowledge for Florentine Art and specifically Michelangelo is surpassed by none.

Tremendous knowledge and lovely guide. - Gianna was our guide. On time and professional throughout. I was with an elderly friend and she made every attempt to walk slower and give plenty of seat breaks. She exhibted an exceptional knowledge of the Renaissance Art section of the Ufizzi Gallery and was very happy to answer and expand on questions. A wonderful tour of the Accademia Museum followed and again was well paced and expertly narrated. Gianna was a lovely guide and extremely helpful. She even walked us to the hotel when a thunderstorm hit and we could not get a taxi. We would thoroughly recommend Gianna as a guide.

Absolutely amazing! - My husband and I went on the tour 1st November. Our guide who I think may have been called Jan (?) was superb. She was so knowledgeable and her enthusiasm was a delight! There were only 4 of us on the tour so it felt very personal. She showed us things we never would have seen and understood if we had been on our own. The way she moved through the different styles of art through to the Renaissance period was excellent. The history that we learnt was so interesting and gives a great grounding for other sites and places we visited. If you are thinking of doing this tour, do it! It was the best guided tour I have ever had, amazing!! Thank you

Outstanding and personalized. - We loved this tour. There were only eight of us. Angelo provided the context that heightened the Ufuzzi experience. Highly recommended unless you're an art historian. Then it was just my wife and I with Angelo to go see David. A very personal and highly rewarding experience.
