Exceptional Tour

Ruth_J, Jun 2026

If you plan to visit the Medici Museum, I would highly recommend this tour. And if you get Ivano as your guide, you will have the most informative and inclusive experience - he was exceptional!!

He'll be thrilled to know that his knowledge and passion left such a positive impression. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in Italy.

Elisabeta was interesting...

Robert_D, Apr 2025

Elisabeta was interesting and fun. Il magnifico was shafted on his tomb - he deserved better. Michelangelo’s facade should be constructed!

Response from Host, Apr 2025
