Excellent tour guide who clearly loves her city of Florence and all it has to offer! - Brenda was an amazing guide. She is proud of the city and her knowledge is amazing. She was fun, informative, answered our questions and let our interests guide many of her comments. Her knowledge of the David gave a whole new meaning for appreciation of the beautiful sculpture. Highly recommend the experience.

Cool way to see the city and learn about the history - Francesca is as beautiful as she is knowledgeable. Lots of walking but amazing to have seen the beautiful architecture, history, and of course the star of the show, David.

A memorable tour led by Brian - Brian was our local tour guide whose ethos was to create an experience rather than just pass on information. And he delivered. The tour was fantastic, we learnt so much and things that we could put into action straight away like photographing the unfinished sculptures and David in black and white for better definition.

Great start to a Florence trip - Great way to get grounded early in Florence. My wife wanted to see David and this also checks that box at the end. Our guide had a lot of history to tell and we were all ears. Amazing place and would definitely do again.

Must do for your visit to Florence - The tour gave us a great understanding of the history of Florence, highlighting some of the places to shop and eat. The David experience was amazing and without I would not have been able to appreciate the art as much.
