It was off to a bumpy start in the morning as the tour was canceled minutes before we were to meet our guide. However, our tour guide operator worked diligently to get things set up so that we were able to make the major things happen for my birthday. We were able to do the Dome climb, which was absolutely amazing! Be sure to wear good shoes and take your time! View from the top was absolutely spectacular and should not be missed! Our tour of the academia museum to see the michelangelos David absolutely spectacular! Our tour guide was so fantastic and gave us the greatest timeline of Michelangelo from the beginning to the end! He was fantastics explaining the sculptures that lead up to the David. I can't thank him enough for giving me the most spectacular tour and explanation of this monumental sculpture! The reason that I did not give it a five star, was because we did not have enough time to do the rest of the tour.
However, what we did get to see was absolutely amazing! For what we did do and see it's definitely a 5star experience.

Thank you so much, Charlotte!
We truly appreciate your understanding after that rough start — and we’re really happy everything came together for your birthday in the end. The Dome and David are two unforgettable highlights, and it means a lot that you still found the experience amazing.
Wishing you many more great trips ahead — and hopefully another one with us!
