“We experienced a brief yet impactful and powerful story by our knowledgeable guide, Rocher. In fact, he shared more niche facts about the history of Michelangelo and the development of art history in Florence than any internet search will tell you. It's always nice to see the passion a tour guide has for the stories behind the artists and art. His storytelling also really brought us into a deeper understanding of Michelangelo's David - I think about the artwork all the time and craftsmanship Michelangelo used. We thank him for his time and experience. If you're a tourist in Florence, you will not regret booking a guided tour. It's one…”

“David and academia tour was boring. The guide spit out facts but was very monotone and not entertaining at all. He was quite knowledgeable but not the best at making history fun. On the other hand our tour guide for uffizi made a museum tour holding thousands of paintings one of the funniest and most Interesting museum tours. His storytelling was just so entertsining, and throught provoking. He brought you back to the 1500s and you cam tell he is passionate about what he does. He was simply amazing!”

We could have looked around more but it was so croweded. We got what we paid for, saw David and that was fine.”
