We enjoyed our tour and recommend anyone who enjoys to learn to join Angelo on the tour. He was very engaging and knowledgeable and kept us wanting to learn more.

Even the title of this review is incorrect! It was not a 5 hour tour including the Uffizi, though that is how it was advertised and what I paid for. While our guide was wonderful, we were shocked when after two hours and only going through the piazza and seeing David, she started to say her goodbyes to us. While we met outside the Uffizi, we never went in.

Our tour guide was fantastic and knew the city and the museum well! Highly recommended! She was even able to provide us with in-depth insight into the sculptures and paintings from all sides and aspects.

David and academia tour was boring. The guide spit out facts but was very monotone and not entertaining at all. He was quite knowledgeable but not the best at making history fun. On the other hand our tour guide for uffizi made a museum tour holding thousands of paintings one of the funniest and most Interesting museum tours. His storytelling was just so entertsining, and throught provoking. He brought you back to the 1500s and you cam tell he is passionate about what he does. He was simply amazing!

This was an excellent tour that covered all the basics of the Renaissance. Both of our guides (can only remember Annette's name) were very knowledgeable and did a great job of setting the pace of the tour without rushing anyone. I felt like we had plenty of time to see the important pieces and although it was a long day, it wasn't overwhelming.

Did the morning and afternoon combo. Tour guide spoke excellent English, and very knowledgeable with all subject. With 2-hours of lunch in between, it was a great day! Highly recommend.

Very informative. Our guide Stefani did a great job and was very knowledgeable. The tour was a good pace. A little disappointed that we only saw the outside of the duomo.

We went on a girls trip with all different levels of art knowledge. She was able to hold her attention, funny, and knowledgeable. There’s so much to see, but she knew which pieces were most important and impactful. She also knew how to get around all the crowds. Loved it.

Two great tours, 2-hr each, which were perfect durations for initial introduction of these amazing sites. Annette the guide was superb, with clear English and a vast knowledge of Florence's treasures. We highly recommend this tour.
