Terrible experience. Time was wrong and the price is outrageously over charged. Would not recommend and would say actively stay away
Neighbor was so knowledgeable, friendly and concise. We learned a great deal on our tour. He even recommended a great lunch spot’n
Complicated process. Constant texts and emails prior to meeting point date, but then.......no one was there to validate our voucher!
Greeter to print tickets was not where he/she was supposed to be. We waited at assigned location for 30 minutes.
Salman was very cooperative n though we could not understand the location, he was calm n helped us in finding it. Post handing over the physical tickets he was available on call n answered all the questions.
Disorganized. Tells you to meet at some address to change your online vouchers for tickets. Nobody was there. Waited 45 mins and then left.
Lovely church and really amazing museum. The reliquary was fascinating. Slip the line was nice. Went in the morning so the crowd was relatively light.
This tour only covers a small portion of the cathedral, so it’s a good option if you’re mainly interested in seeing the dome itself.
The tour guide will also inform you that your ticket includes access to two additional locations and is valid for two days.
Important tip: Make sure to take screenshots of your QR codes on the first day! Otherwise, you may not be able to access the ticket link the following day, which could prevent you from visiting the other locations.
You must buy this ticket if you want to see the Duomo in a timely manner. They were super diligent in sending the tickets, explaining how to get there and answering any questions. Follow their timed recommendations and enjoy. We were so happy to have this ticket.
Directions for meeting were not clear and there were massive amounts of people and multiple groups. We called the tour guide who told us to hurry to the meeting place and when we got there they left. I called Biator and was told it was the tourist the day (at 1pm). Found another company who was much more accommodating. So now..I have paid DOUBLE for the tour. Would NOT recommend Viator for this. They were rude and said “everyone else found the group”. The Guide was not helpful at all when I called but another company was much more helpful. The Duomo is Florence is quite crowded and the designated meeting spot was not easy to find.
Very disappointing. The Duomo is being refurbished preventing seeing much of the cathedral.
One guest wasn’t allowed in due to her bag having 2 straps. It was a small fashion bag which she carried on her shoulder.
Avoid this tour! It is not a way to avoid the very long lines. It is not a fast tract option. The timed entry that you are buying doesn’t mean you get to avoid the long lines to the venue. It is also very confusing and hard to find the tour group to even get your tickets! I’ve asked viator for a refund but thus far they are refusing. Very misleading description and I would avoid at all costs! It also is very disappointing that viator is not listening to my account of our experience.
Not worth the money… an unguided tour is worthless in a city like this!! Find something else that has a knowledgeable person in charge.
The cathedral was closed. Fast track entry meant absolutely nothing as there was NO entry. Not even a partial refund was provided. Very disappointing.
Not worth buying fast entrance if you’re willing to wait in a line for 10 minutes longer. It wasn’t a skip the line entrance and it was extremely difficult transferring the tickets from the “guide” who wasn’t a tour guide. The app should directly send you the tickets. Not worth the money at all!!!!!
This is a third party ticket provider and a scam. In the United States it is called scalping, which is illegal. You will have to meet someone unofficial in a third party location. They gain access to your phone number and other information. Please do yourself a favor and buy from the official resources or on-site.
This is a scam. Buy your tickets at the location. There is no such thing as a fast pass. You will have to meet someone unofficial at a third party location.
Well worth spending the money to not have to line up for hours!!!!! It was easy to meet and collect the information for the tickets. Got access to the Duomo Cathedral, baptistery, bell tower and museum.
Well worth seeing and the meeting-point was easy to find. We still had to queue for 20 minutes to get it, so the entry is not all that "fast" !
Our guide was very knowledgeable and seemed very passionate about teaching us everything there was to know about the cathedral. If we had walked through there alone with no guide, nothing would’ve been of any significance.
The Florence Duomo and Campanile are spectacular! It is a very crowded area so it was a bit confusing figuring out where to go and exactly what we had tickets for. The person taking tickets said we did not have a "Skip the Line" ticket, but that is what we ordered. I highly recommend climbing the Campanile, but it is a LOT of steps and the stairways get very narrow.
It was my first tour. I asked for advise in the ti ticket office and showed them my voucher. The reply was we did not sell you that. It was raining heavily and windy. We did not know what to do. We missed the tour. I do think it would have been helpful if our guide rang us as he was able to What's app us. The next day we understood the procedure and we were successful in getting g the tour.
This was a a scam, there was no skip the line line. Paid $40+ for no reason and entry is free to the duomo
It was OK - I don't know if it was worth booking it through a third party - tickets are readily available at the location, and you don't have to watch the time and adjust your plans to a previously planned reservation, you can just buy tickets when it's convenient for you in the moment
Fantastic experience, must see. It is absolutely stunning, so much history, it’s fascinating. Highly recommend!
We were scammed. I purchased three tickets for the Duomo the evening before the date and aviator never showed up. Then a couple were at the Duomo at the same scheduled time and infmed me that the tour was canceled, even before Viator took my money for the tour. I was as scammed and want my refund.
This is an entrance ticket only, no guides. Other than visiting and seeing the Duomo, really learned nothing about it
Texted an issue and got right back to me. So simple and easy. I got confused on where to go and texted them and they helped me right away.
Well worth the money but the instructions were confusing. There was a meeting point but then a text was sent to me (that I didn’t see) that said just go and use the tickets in the text. So we spent quite some time trying to find the vendor at the meeting point. Finally when I called he was super nice and met us and explained that he had sent a text. After that it was super easy and convenient. I’d recommend this to anyone.
The Duomo officially opens at 10:15 (the Bell Tower opens at 10:00). Make sure you get in line EARLY! We got in line at 9:50, we were about 40 people back from the front, and by 10:15am the line was at least 250 people behind us. I recommend going immediately to the Crypt because the space is narrow and difficult to take your time to read the information and appreciate what you are seeing when it gets crowded - which happened about 20 min after we arrived.
Feel this was a fraudulent offer as the Duomo was closed. A company should not sell tickets to a closed venue.
