Totally worth it - On this tour you will learn about the history of the most iconic building in Florence. You will also get a panoramic view of the city and its surrounding hills if you're willing to climb a hundred or so steps... and an even better view if you're willing to climb 300 more. Your ticket includes more than just a tour of the cathedral, you can also climb the bell tower, enter the baptistry on the south side of the cathedral and the crypt beneath the cathedral. We had the good fortune of having Maria Cristina as our tour guide. It's totally worth it just to be able to skip the lines, but nothing beats a knowledgeable tour guide who has enthusiasm for what they do.

Great tour that gives you... - Great tour that gives you options and takes you to a view not many get to see. Highly recommend you do this to not only get some great insight but also takes you places that are off limits to many. Loved it.

Confusing communication - #unclearcommunication -from the listing saying it’s a “premium” tour with duomo climb & terraces (it wasn’t- you had to pay for an additional optional which didn’t come up in the app) to messages giving 2 different meeting places (use the one with a photo of the meet), to a message saying you’d have to pay cash for entry tickets (we emailed-already paid 🙄) Then the tour-NOT and hour & a half (barely 30 minutes) was just a tour of one side of the cathedral and a look up the duomo. English was so-so. All in all …meh.

Tour guide doesn’t stay with you and not enough time in same day to do chathedral across street or basement of duomo - It’s good as you skip the line but tour guide doesn’t even stay with you the whole way He was in a rush and he only walks up one set of stairs and then leaves you to do rest of tour and duomo yourself Also they just give you tickets to go to chathedral and didn’t even have time to do basement of duomo because it closes at 4 so if you do the 210 tour you won’t make it in

Find a Different Tour Guide. - The quality of the headphone system was poor. This coupled with the speech patters of the tour guide made it very hard to understand the information being communicated. The walk to the top of the Duomo was hard but worth it. That was the best part of the tour. I learned little to nothing from our guide. I would look for a different company to do this tour.

Not So Duomo! - We booked a 2 hr terrace view and dome climb tour. The tour lasted less than an hour with no terrace view or dome climb as advertised. Apparently the areas were closed which is fine but we should have been advised in advance not as the tour started. We should have been offered a refund or an opportunity to book something else. The climb and terrace view is the only reason we booked the tour

Poor customer service - The meeting point provided by Viator was incorrect and the instructions by the tour operator to attempt to connect us was incorrect, causing us to miss the tour. Refund denied by the tour and Viator.

Warning: Missed the tour due to inaccurate meeting location - I missed the tour since the meeting location on the reservation was not accurate. I waited in the wrong location thus missed the tour. My request for refund was also denied by Viator.
