If you are into art and... - If you are into art and history, this tour is perfect for you. The stairs to the top of the duomo are narrow and steep, but the view is worth it.

Highly recommended - Laura was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and engaging for the adults and children. The pacing of the tour was great as well. We had just enough short stops to make the climb. We are so glad that we were able to get to the terraces

Stunning views! - Although this tour is a bit pricey, and there are a lot of steps to reach the top, the skip the line entry, along with the fabulous views from the terraces and from the top of the duomo, were well worth it! Simply amazing!

A must-book for Florence! - Our guide, Marta, was amazing! So knowledgeable and well-organized. This tour is SUPER worth it!! You get to see so much of the Duomo that is not open to the public and skipping the line alone makes this worth the price. The tickets are also good for 72 hours for most of the museums in the Duomo complex, so you really get the most for your money.

Very Disappointing Experience - We were genuinely excited for the Duomo Terraces and Duomo Climb tour in Florence and were really looking forward to it, which makes this especially disappointing. Unfortunately, due to confusing meeting point instructions and what appears to have been an inaccurate Google Maps location, we were unable to find our group in time. We actively searched for them and even approached other tour guides, who kindly looked at our voucher and tried to help us locate the correct meeting point, directing us to the opposite side of the street — but by then it was too late. We’ve taken many guided tours over the years and have never experienced an issue like this before. What made it even more frustrating was the refusal to offer any accommodation afterward. Missing an experience we were genuinely excited about in Florence was incredibly disappointing. Unfortunately, Viator customer service also left much to be desired.
