Our guide was awesome! Knowledgable and fun. She was also attentive to the needs and pace of her group.
Marco was an amazing guide and taught us so much about Michelangelo and the Medici family.
Very informative and knowledgeable.
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!
