Amazing tour experience!! - "I can not describe how amazing this tour was! It was so necessary to have a guide like marcello who knew their stuff and the ins and outs of the story between david and Michelangelo. Especially as someone coming from a different continent! When i asked something curious about the history marcello our tour guide answered and exlplained quickly and accurately. I also loved the tour operator Madu, he was so kind and inclusive. I feel like I really made a group of life-long friends, having a great and wonderful experience of a lifetime" Thank you Marcello

Great tour guide - Our tour guide was good and we were happy to skip the lines. Tour guide was interesting. We could understand her and she was charismatic. After the Michelangelo part we just weren’t as interested in the rest. It was just ok. We give Tour guide 5 stars her

Great guide … not sure about the rest - I will admit up front this tour clearly posted that admission was not included. Having said that … I’m still disappointed. The admission is another 20 which makes this tour massively overpriced for a small art gallery with its own website you can buy admission and an audio tour. Our guide was Italian and knowledgeable which is the main benefit. His passion for the art and history was amazing. The group was almost easy to find from the directions on the site and the guys running it friendly. They pushed our tour back 30 minutes and TRIED to reach us to inform so I give them credit. Still left feeling like I overspent for something an extra 15 minutes of research would have cost significantly less.

Read the fine print! - First of all, I totally screwed up because I thought entrance tickets were included. This should be spelled out prominently on the website. When we arrived for the 10:30 tour, there was no one available to help us. After wandering around for fifteen minutes, we met a person who informed us that the tour guide got injured and we were rescheduled for 12:15. When we returned, we had to give the same person 80 euro in cash, again, because I thought the original price I paid included the tickets I thought the entire interaction was sketchy. The tour was shorter than promised and absolutely not worth the cost since we were delayed two hours and had to rearrange our plans. In the future, I will make sure to read the fine print and go see the replica of David in the plaza for free.
