For the real Michelangelo lovers.... it is special to walk in his footsteps in the house were he lived...
As a big Michelangelo fan this tour was high on my bucket list. As a cherry on the cake our guide was just as big a fan as me so we interacted on our love for this great son of Florence. Walking in his house gave a special feeling and seeing the works he did as a young man. We ended the tour at the Santa Croce were we emerged ourselves in the stories of the lives of a few of the great citizens of Florence and the art and history of both the church and the city.

Art and religious history
Wow, our tour guide was spectacularly knowledgeable in all things Florence! At the end of our one hour tour, it was as though we had been in an art religious history class. The basilica was beautiful, and we were very appreciative to our guide for all her knowledge and expertise.

Lisa was our exceptional Samata Croce and LeathervSchoo. Guide.
Our private tour with Lisa, our guide from Florence Pass, was exceptional in every way. She was very friendly and particularly knowledgeable about Santa Croce, its history and its art. Her English was excellent.

Church full of famous people
One of my favorite churches and a visit is a must when in Florence! There are so many well known legends who call Santa Croce their resting place. From Galileo, Dante Aligheri, Marconi, Machiavelli and so many more. The church is beautiful! Plus after the visit you can stop in at the Leather School not far behind the church! Remarkable!

So Informative!
Going one on one with my guide gave me an opportunity to feel his passion for the subject. I learned much about the Medici dynasty and how Michaelangelo is such an important part of Florence’s history. We spent time in the magnificent basilica learning about the important people who are interned there. And finally visited Michaelangelo’s house which also was full of history. My guide was friendly and highly knowledgeable. What more could I say! Molto bene!

Basilica di Santa Croce is a Wonderful Experience
The Basilica di Santa Croce is a wonderful church which should be included in your Florence trip. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and explained the significance of the artwork around the church and grounds. The church and beautiful artwork are spectacular....the history of the church is amazing.....and it is the church where Michelangelo, Galileo and Machiavelli are all buried. Highly recommend taking this tour.

Understanding Uffizi in shortest possible time
Julia, the tour guide was passionate about her job that she could help us appreciate the art, history of Medici family and the VIPs buried at Santa Croce. She was fantastic in her knowledge and communication.
