Glad we paid for a guide! - Our guide was really well educated and informative. We learned a lot from him which helped us understand so much more than had we done it on our own.

Thank you Giacomo - Giacomo, our tour guide was knowledgeable and wonderful. He gave us some historical insights to the center of town as we walked to the Academia. He also shared interesting facts regarding art and especially about the statue of David. I liked that it was a small group, it was easier to get around. I highly recommend this event to all.

Perfect intro to David and the rest of the Museum - What an incredible was to spend our last day in Florence! Our guide was fantastic and helped us understand Michaelangelo’s genius as well as the evolution of the art from the gothic to the Renaissance period. Even my teenagers were engaged! I’m so sorry I don’t remember her name as I accidentally deleted my phone note :( but she is from a quiet town between Pisa and Florence and is 29 years old (older than when Michaelangelo carved his David masterpiece-she made a cute joke comparing what she’s done to what he’s accomplished lol)—I hope this is enough to identify her to give her much deserved kudos! Highly recommend…just enough time to get a feel for the small museum and we stayed afterwards to see the rest as we were so inspired by our tour guide. Seeing the very first Stadivarus violin was also a highlight !

Fantastic tour and guide, would highly recommend! - Our tour guide was excellent and she was a wealth of knowledge and guided us through the David and Accademia Gallery with just the right amount of information and time to stop and discuss and take pictures. Would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to skip the line while also getting a great guided tour with someone who truly knows the history and the stories behind what you are looking at!
