Behind-the-masters tour - Bobby provided nuggets and behind-the-masters info that only a very experienced guide would know. She was both informative and entertaining. Would definitely book again!

great tour - So glad we did this tour I think it would have been very difficult to truly understand the magnificence that is David. We are not art people but we appreciated so much more because our guide was so knowledge. I loved the first viewing because it was not to crowded yet to get the full 180 and to get pictures.

David! - We had an amazing tour with Monica today. She maneuvered us to the very front of the line and as a result, we were the first people into the museum. We had several minutes viewing the David by ourselves. In addition, Monica gave us great history and background information on the creation of the statue and Michelangelo. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and our time with Monica.

A minute alone with David 👌🏼 - Great to do this tour early in the morning. You get a minute with David alone. Our guide, Monica, was amazing. She showed us the most important pieces first, which was great!

Alone with the David - Monica was an outstanding tour guide who gave us so much context and history. It was really cool to be alone with the David before the rush of people flooded in.

Best David Experience! - By some stroke of luck my husband and I ended up being the only people on our tour with Silvia! And it was fantastico! Not only did Silvia talk about the art, but the engineering! She gave us some of the best background not only of Michelangelo but of Florence and the politics as well! Loved it! And we pretty much had David to our self to start!

Tour of David- Breathtaking - Our early viewing tour began with an interesting and well explained history of Michelangelo. This was very helpful for me. Babi was expressive and full of details which helps me absorb knowledge! I was not expecting chills as I approached the piece of art, but goosebumps came quickly. I am appreciative to have had such a great tour by a well-versed guide (Babi).

Excellent experience - Getting in early was a treat and provided the opportunity to view David with almost absolutely no one else around to obscure the viewing. Our guide Raffa was fantastic. Herself a fine arts graduate of the d’Accademia possessing a rare and insightful knowledge of David and the unfinished (?) statues by Michelangelo in the preceding gallery. Cannot recommend LIV Tours highly enough for the quality of access and guides as well as complete experience.
