I booked a private tour...

5.00I booked a private tour because it was the only way to fit these 2 must see sights into our schedule. It was worth it because we were able to avoid lines (but not crowds) and could move through at our own pace. Marta was a good guide. Unfortunately, it was miserably hot and crowded and the earbud system used is mediocre at best. My daughter really loved the David and all the interesting details Marta provided about it. We were glad to have the opportunity for a private tour, just bad timing on our part.
Our tour guide was great...

3.00Our tour guide was great but we found that we didn’t see a lot and then found out we couldn’t come back. It was very rushed for almost $700 for 3
Great Tour, Don’t miss the Opportunity to Skip the Line with a Guide!

5.00Our guide, Midila was great and super knowledgeable with 16 years of experience! She made it so easy process, honestly very much worth the cost. They handle the tickets, help Shepard you through the process. She was very knowledgeable in not only the art, the city, the time period of the renaissance, etc.
Excellent tour

5.00Guido, our tour guide, was outstanding. He thoughtfully adjusted the tour’s pace to accommodate our 5-year-old, sharing engaging stories that captured her attention—particularly in the Uffizi Gallery and at the David statue in the Galleria dell’Accademia. Guido’s calm and easygoing demeanor made the experience seamless. We skipped all lines and accessed the top floors of both museums via elevators, avoiding the hassle of stairs. Beyond the tour, he also shared excellent tips for our upcoming visit to Venice. Highly recommended—especially for couples with young children who want to enjoy a rich art and history experience in just a few hours without losing their child’s interest.
Totally worth it!
