Irina, our guide, was...

Irina, our guide, was outstanding as she took us through the wonders of Bargello. Her knowledge of the subject matter was matched by her appreciation and passion for it. All of this, combined with effective techniques like occasionally sharing related photos from her IPad, enhanced the experience for us and brought it to life so to speak.

High Quality as Always

We could have done the tour on our own but wouldn't have gotten nearly as much out of it had we done so. Fillipo was very knowledgeable and brought our attention to pieces we might have overlooked. It was also heavenly that it was not crowded as other museums so we could spend time examining the pieces that intrigued us. We loved it! Highly recommend.
