Great tour! - Such a great tour - get to skip the lines and our guide was very knowledgeable. It was a much better visit for our family than if we had gone solo. Our guide Francesca (with blue eyes ;) ) was lovely.

Don‘t miss it! - One of the best Thai-restaurants at Klong Muang beach. Since 15 years Mr Rose makes wonderful thaifood, reopened the restaurant after the pandemic on a new place (opposite hotel Dusit Tani). Best fish cake we ever had, curries, soups etc are unbelievable good! We will surely come again during out next holidays!

An unforgettable experience - It was just perfect! Our guide Veronica was great: She carried us away with her knowledge, enthusiasm and humour and conveyed the history of the cathedral and the dome in an exciting and understandable way. Thanks to it, we could appreciate the impressive architecture and breathtaking views from the dome even more - and we now know where it grew up ☺️. The organization was also top – no waiting times, smooth running and enough time to enjoy the highlights. It was truly an unforgettable day, and I can highly recommend this tour to anyone! Thanks to Fat Tire Tours and especially to Veronica for this great experience!😊

VIP tour, would recommend - Great experience! Loved getting to hear all the history of the duomo and we felt like VIPs getting special access to the terrace. Brian was a great guide and offered so much knowledge about Florence and its history. A lot of steps, but they are broken up into sections going up which made it super manageable.

Well worth it, even the climb - Brilliant tour & our guide was excellent. She was very knowledgeable & would highly recommend this tour. Be warned if you are a bit wobbly with heights as you climb the Duomo you go back inside the dome and it’s a glass barrier. I had a sweaty palm moment but the view of the ceiling more than made up for it. Awesome tour

Lots of steps, but worth it for the view - Our guide was excellent for this tour. I want to say her name was Veronica, but maybe that's wrong. She was passionate about the history she was showing us. The views were amazing! There are several stairs you have to climb to get up there (over 400), but it's worth it. There are several sections you can stop and take a break if needed.

Definitely Visit The Duomo - Veronica was very knowledgeable- she knows the history of the Duomo as well as the art as well as the artists. We were not able to climb the tower with the group but I’m sure that would have been rewarding as well

A must in Florence with Veronica. - This was a great tour. Veronica our guide was fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of information. She was also very accommodating to everyone in the group as we made our way up the many stairs to the dome. We highly recommend this tour with Veronica.

Duomo - Our tour guide was very nice! I wish the tour was a little more descriptive for all that we saw. (Not her fault) There is so much to see!! Adorable host when we arrived at the fat tire office to begin.
