The guide inside the cathedral was very good. She was able to fill the waiting time needed to enter the cathedral with information about the monument and the historical context. As far as the bus is concerned, the tour allows you to enjoy views of the city and get to know the exteriors.

We liked it and were impressed by the cathedral in Florence. Unfortunately, the rush of tourists was a bit big and so the waiting time of 2 hours was a bit too long.
