Our tour guide was thrown...

Jennifer_N, Jun 2025
Our tour guide was thrown in last minute as a sub for our previous guide due to an accident. Our guide did a good job, but she stated it had been a long while since she had visited the Bargello and was not fully prepared for the experience as she normally would have been.

Private tour of Bargello

Glenda was a delightful tour guide. She hit the highlights of this mostly unvisited museum in Florence with a lot of knowledge. She even took us 5 minutes away to a copy of St. George by Donatello on the side of the Guild Church since the original was being moved that day and could not be seen. The Bargello has some beautiful statues that Michelangelo and Donatello sculpted that you can walk right up to. Very uncrowded, so perfect for a short visit when you want to beat the crowds.

Wonderful guide

Anna, a historian, is an absolute delight as a guide with a real passion for the art and Florence. The only hiccup was that the instructions did not say where to meet so we were inside and she was outside. Regardless we found each other and had a delightful time. Highly recommend.

Amazing!

Ana was amazing! We so loved her starting with a description of the history of the Bargello itself. Her knowledge of the art, the artists, and their relationships was most illuminating.

Unforgettable experience! So much Florentine history!

Idalia_L, Aug 2023
Ana was our guide and was the best! The Bargello is worth the time, especially considering all the Florentine history and the Renaissance. Ana unfolded all the historical accounts in a very detailed and interesting manner. She was also very patient in answering our questions.
