Our guide was very sweet and knowledgeable. She was quick and efficient and left us with no more questions to ask. The art was magnificent! We also learned how to make statues. Our guide went to school for this and knew how to do it herself. Best tour of our trip!

Francesco, our guide at Uffizi, and Mary, our guide at Galleria were superb and made both experiences amazing, thank you. At the Galleria, the 'skip the line tour' is a misnomer because there are long queues, even for groups, which is upsetting. I have a physical impairment which prevents me from standing still for even short periods and the skip the line tour was an incentive. There is absolutely no seating available for patrons who are less able and cannot stand in the queue.

The musesos and putting yourself in the artistic context. You have to be careful because they are two different companies in the combo. For me the best was the Spanish tour guide of my green tourist, it lacked a little more detail as it was very general, but the passion in telling it is unmatched. Each of the museums is something to see and to be impressed! It happened to me
