Secrets of David - It was great, I learned a lot with the visit thank you so much, having the guide talk to you about secret things you only learn on the tour gives you to pay the ticket

Get to know Michelangelo's David - The guided tour was very good, because although it did not cover the whole academy, it was detailed enough in the places where we stopped, especially Michelangelo’s David; perhaps the only thing I would add is that it lasted a little longer to visit a little more and know more in detail.

Good option for a quick visit - Maria spoke a lot and fast. It was hard to absorb all the information. But very happy with the tour. Some of the tour participants were not very cooperative

Informative speaker, tour guide - The tour guide Aurora was very, very good. Very smart and explained so many things about art and was very very good at communication making sure we all heard everything. My only reason for rating 4 rather than 5 was due to the museum being incredibly crowded.

Ripped off! - Not worth the money we paid. Very disappointed in our tour guide. He was arrogant and misinformed on his history of Michael Angelo as an artist. He asked questions to the group and when someone provided their feedback, he made them feel inadequate. In addition, he only spoke about one statue and overlooked the rest of the art that was displayed. We were left to explore on our own. The tour was short and would not recommend this to anyone. If you are seeking for the true history of Michael Angelo, I highly recommend the Vatican tour in Rome. Excellent tour with explicit history.

Don't trust Viator - 1. Don't believe 'Skip the Line' means anything - you could be lining up for a long time 2. When they screw up they won't return your money - even though the tickets were printed with the wrong time, they wouldn't admit to a mistake
