Lessons and Appreciation - Titiana was our guide and she was a wonderful guide and knowledgeable lady. She provided so much information and insights about the art, artists and history which deepened our understanding of what was happening at the time the art was created. She had a great sense of reverence for the art and it’s place in history of the world as well as for Florence. Great tour and interesting insights.

Knowledgeable guide a must for this unique museum - This was one of the most unique museums we have ever visited. Our knowledgeable guide brought to life the living conditions, experiences, and work of those who lived in this convent in the 15th century as well as the life of some of its most notable inhabitants. We would never have gotten as much out of this visit without such a great guide.
