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.

Chiara was an excellent guide. Her English was better than mine and she was extremely knowledgable. We learnt a lot I had mistakenly only booked for half the tour so didn’t get into the Uffizi. But we had probably absorbed more than enough by then.

Giovanna was excellent as a tour guide, her extensive knowledge of Florentine history and art was comprehensive. Listening to her interpretation of Boticelli’s paintings were in-depth and very thought provoking. Highly recommend her group tour of both the Accademia and Uffizi Galleries with City Wanders.

Excellent tour guide! The background and information of each place on the tour was well presented in a way that engaged the group.

Very knowledgeable and friendly tour guides. They kept us entertained while waiting on very long lines into the museums.

Great tour! Very interesting and factual. Soooooo much to see. Our guides were friendly and considerate of our needs. We went on a Tuesday, which is apparently the busiest day of the week. Beautiful places, loaded with history.

Wonderful and educated guides! The walking tour and Accademia guide was from Florence (Patty?) and knew so much about the history and our afternoon Uffize guide was British and well versed in her art history. So worth it!!

Great tours! I did the 9am tour which featured a guided city tour before the Galleria d'Academia at 10:30. There you have 30 min with the guide and then walk around yourself up until you meet back at the meeting point (Uffizi Gallery) at 12:30. Then you get 1.5 hr your there with another guide. I had Claudia and then Paulina as guides. Both were excellent!! Highly recommend. I think the timing of each tour was also perfect.
