Time well spent.

Guido, our guide, was charming. He was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and passionate about his subject matter. He made the personalities and the history behind the Baptistry and the Duomo Museum come alive. Thanks to Guido we learned a great deal from the 90 minutes we spent on this tour. It was well worth the cost.

Ivan was a fun guide and had very interesting, little known, facts to share about the square. Get a guided tour whenever you can. It really makes the experience so much more enjoyable!
