4.00Guide was knowledgeable but the tour really only covered the sculptures of Michelangelo and nothing of the rest of the museum. Highly recommend skipping the line to save time.
Great Tour Guide

5.00This was such a great experience, for two out of three of us it was our first time at this exhibit. The tour guide met us and handed us our earpieces, and we were able to easily navigate entrance in the tour process with them. I definitely recommend going this route for first timers!
Not so great

1.00Started too late. Late arriving group threw us off. Spoke too fast. Trust your audience by speaking more slowly. Not always easy to understand.
Helpful but not exceptional

Had we gone by ourselves, we would have seen the statue and skipped everything else. The tour helped give me a better appreciation for the artist and how he worked.
It truly was a skip the...
