Excellence! - Laura was an excellent guide! We had a very small group and she was able to answer questions and was extremely knowledgeable about the art and history if the Medici. She is also excellent with younger tourists!

What a start! - The first tour of our visit and thanks to Riccardo, our guide, the greatest start we could have had. So knowledgable and full of details the visit was great and the added recommendations of less well known museums to visit added to our trip. We can’t thank you enough.

Surprising history! - We didn't know just how gorgeous the inside of this building was, and this tour was absolutely wonderful. I don't think the palazzo would have been half as meaningful without a guide to walk us through it! Our guide, Viola M, was very excited and knowledgeable about the palace and Florence in general.

Palazzo Vecchio - Excellent walk, very beautiful and quite interesting history. In addition, what contributed even more to we loved the visit was our guide Valentina. Sympathetic and familiar with the smallest details of the history of the palace. I recommend visiting the Palace and, if possible, doing it with Valentina.

Palazza Vecchio tour - The value did not match the price. We didn’t start until noon as it took the guide 25 minutes to pick up our tickets at the desk. She had to leave “early” at one o’clock apologizing for this. But we had paid $118 ($58) each for one hour. The guide provided interesting info and spoke good English and was very gracious. But too short a tour for the cost as we expected 2 hrs, not one.
