Anastasia is the best... - This tour was a very nice experience especially if you want to skip major lines and learn about the religious history of Florence, Italy.Anastasia was our tour guide and she was excellent. Having a good tour guide makes a difference in the experience rather than going in with no prior explanations.

Fabulous detailed and efficient tour of the Duomo, Baptistery, etc! - Our guide, Anastasia, was awesome! She was very thorough and detailed with describing the Duomo, etc., the history and the architecture. The tour was very efficient as well. We appreciated the museum experience to see the beautiful doors to the Baptistery as well. She also gave us a ‘heads up’ as to what to look for on our dome climb. We gained a special appreciation for that experience thanks to her. Time and money well spent! Thank you!
