Best tour guide in Italy!

Kathryn_Y, Apr 2026

There are 3 of us, and we were the only people in our group. Our guide, Eleonora, spoke perfect English. She was extremely knowledgeable, and, since there were just the 3 of us, we could ask questions. The only downside was that all of the museums are closed on Mondays (which we didn't know when booking the tour), so lines were long! Eleonora used the time well, talking about what we were seeing on the outside & what we were about to see on the inside the whole time we were in the lines! She is by far the best tour guide I've ever had on any tour - ever! The Duomo complex is well worth your time! The building itself is amazing, and the artworks & artifacts are incredible. Some of the floors date back to a Roman times. Don't skip the museum!

Breathtaking views.

Kevin_G, Jun 2023

Giana, our guide, did a wonderful job both showing us the most interesting sights in/around the Duomo, but also mixed in stories to help bring medieval Florence to life. Her command of the English language was adequate, and she worked hard to ensure we understood her stories. The buildings were amazing and the views from the top of the dome are breathtaking.

Tour of the Florence Dome and Cathedral.

Christine_C, Dec 2022

Our guide was very kind, knowledgeable and understandable. We learned a great deal from him and throughly enjoyed our tour of the Florence Dome, and Cathedral.
