Our guide was super sweet and funny, and her knowledge of the Duomo and Florence in general was amazing. She pointed out so many little aspects of the Duomo that we would have never known about. The dome climb was a workout but 100% worth it; the views from the top are unbelievable. Bonus of the tour: we had private access to a balcony, about halfway up the dome—very cool."
