Marco was our guide. The tour began on time, very organized and a very small group. We booked a very early morning tour to skip crowds inside as much as possible. Marco would give us highlights and information regarding statues, paintings, buildings nearby etc. Recommended 1000% , yes a thousand!

We learned so much about the artists and their works on this tour! Our guide ( Claudia) was very knowledgable and shared that knowledge in a way that kept us listening. Way too many people and too much time in line to say we “skipped the line”.
Fantastic Tour

Marco was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic for the subject. He guided us through the tour with insight and humor and took care that we could see and feel the knowledge he was imparting on us. He literally made sure we stood in the exact spot for the best view of the art being described. We loved the interlude walk with Marco before our tour at the Ufizzi. The time flew by. We felt guided in the best possible way and have talked about Marco and his teaching skill ever since then. We wish he were with us on the rest of our journey through Italy. Thank you Marco. Your new friends from Maine and NY.
Great experience - I highly recommend!

My wife and I loved that we didn’t have to wait the ridiculous amount of time people were waiting to into these museums. We didn’t touch everything because these museums have tons of history of art work. Our Tour lady was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the city. Highly recommend this tour.
Great Tour

We had a very knowledgeable and passionate tour guide and learned a lot that we would have never known doing this on our own. Pick and early time of day and time of year. The crowds can be overwhelming.
