Wonderful. This was truly skip the line. Not just “get in a shorter line”. Tour was an hour and it was all we needed. Guide would have stayed longer if we wanted. It was just myself and my husband. Very private

Very informative visit with guide Paola Angelini. She has perfect knowledge of Michelangelo’s “David” and his other unfinished statues. She speaks French perfectly. We had a pleasant time. To be renewed in the event of your next trip to Florence for a city tour.
