CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5Well- organised, informative, Clara made a good selection of paintings to speak about, for us non- historians. She gave us a very good picture of life during the Medici era.CCristina S
FamilyVerified booking5 days ago5/5Luigia was a passionate guide; she spent nearly twice as much time with us as originally planned for the museum tour. Before entering the gallery, she explained the history of the “happy alliance” between the Duchy of Florence and the Spanish Empire, helping us better appreciate all the splendor surrounding us. Luigia answered all of our many questions—she was extremely knowledgeable and approachable—and provided us with useful tips for exploring the museum on our own afterward, as well as for other must-see artistic sites in the city. Her presence was invaluable in making our visit one we’ll remember fondly. The cost seemed high, but it turned out to be a true investment for me and my two children in search of Beauty.MMr Alan S
GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5Manuela was the star of my party's trip to Florence. She was very personable and engaging without being familiar. She was soon characterised as a very professional and scholarly Art historian, deeply versed in the Renaissance and its painters. Her explanation of how (and why) the Renaissance artists broke with the Church traditions of the earlier periods was masterly and worthy of a full TV program, along with her detailed and intricate analysis of Giotto, Leonardo, Michelangelo and finally Raphael's painting. I thoroughly recommend her as a guide who loved the art she described, leaving us all feeling much more knowledgeable and wise.SSimone S
CoupleVerified bookingLast week5/5The tour, led by Viktoria, was an experience. We learned a great deal of interesting information about the most important masterpieces. We genuinely looked forward to each new painting, which was brought to life for us, and suddenly saw it in a whole new light. The guide introduced us to the paintings with such enthusiasm that we were completely captivated by her interpretations. Fantastic and highly recommended!MMarion M
FamilyVerified bookingYesterday5/5Marie is wonderful with adults and with our children as well. She’s particularly clear and a pleasure to listen to, and she shared a wealth of information with us in a very engaging way. I highly recommend her, especially since we’ve had the opportunity to tour with various guides, and she’s by far the clearest in her presentation. Thank you for this wonderful afternoon at the Uffizi Gallery.
