This tour turned out very good but it was not clear that this was 3 different tours bundled together. Instructions/information could use some clearer details but all in all we enjoyed all parts of this tour.

My husband and I did a three hour walking tour of Florence (including the Gallery Academia) with our guide, Elena. It was a great learning experience and fun to see the city on foot. Elena was incredibly knowledgeable about the Renaissance period, especially the works of Michelangelo. We learned a ton from her!

We visited for a day having taken the train from Rome to Florence (very eAsy and comfortable, by the way). We had the afternoon start due to our train time. Take an early train. But still our tour of the uffizi with Stefano was incredible. He was A superb and knowledgeable guide. His passion for the history and genius of the artists was evident. He gave us imany neat insights into the works. After a break we joined the walking tour at piazza San Marco with Alberto A, who was also a wonderful guide. His talk about the David statue
And the history behind it was fauntastic and truly moving. Great company!
