Discovering Leonardo's genius thanks to Antonio - I recently joined a tour in Florence that was an absolute delight. Our journey began at the incredible Leonardo da Vinci Interactive Museum, where hands-on exhibits brought da Vinci's inventions to life. The highlight, however, was the visit to the Uffizi Gallery's Leonardo Room. Our guide, Antonio, was both knowledgeable and hilarious, making complex art history easily digestible and thoroughly entertaining. He expertly explained "The Baptism of Christ," "The Adoration of the Magi," and "The Annunciation," enriching our appreciation for these masterpieces. Antonio's tips on where to enjoy the best food, music, and drinks in Florence were invaluable, encapsulated in his amusing "Codex of Antonio." A tour not to be missed!

If you love art you will love it even more! - The Leonardo da Vinci Walking Tour in Florence is a captivating journey through the heart of Renaissance genius. We went to the Leonardo Interactive Museum, and visitors are immediately immersed in da Vinci's innovative mind. The tour meanders through Santa Trinita Square and Santa Maria del Fiore Square, where the grandeur of Florence's architecture unfolds and there are few Leonardo secrets.. Antonio, our guide, was a highlight—his humor and extensive knowledge made the tour both enlightening and entertaining. He shared "The Codex of Antonio," a treasure trove of Florence's best spots for food, music, and local venues. The tour culminates at the Uffizi Museum, standing in awe of Leonardo's masterpieces. This experience is a must for any art and history lover.

Florence of Leonardo - I booked this tour in Florence with my partner as we wanted to discover a bit more about Leonardo Da Vinci and we were curious about the Interactive Museum. The tour was very interesting and our guide Antonio very prepared on the historical part and also full of stories to share about Leonardo and his forever "enemy" Michelangelo! The group was not too big and this gave us the chance to get the guide's full attention and dedication. The interactive Museum is a little hidden gem and the fact that you can actually test each machine makes it even more interesting, it is perfect for adults as well as children and teenagers. We concluded the visit at the Uffizi: Antonio gave us a great explanation of 3 very famous Leonardo's paintings, showed us also 2 Botticelli's famous paintings and then left us to explore the rest of the huge museum at our own pace. It was a great experience, well worth the price and we could not recommend Antonio more since he is truly loving the job he does and delivers an unforgettable experience.

Entusiasmante! - I followed Antonio on several tours, first in Ireland and then in Italy. His way of leading tours and making you feel part of the story he tells, with little-known and funny anecdotes are unique. he is a very knowledgeable guide who puts passion into his work. The tour is well organized, and you will discover the pearl of Florence: the uffizi museum and the interactive museum of Da Vinci. I have always had great interest in the genius of Leonardo and this experience has really excited me! recommended!
