Great value for a great experience - Our tour guide gave us a very thorough explanation and description of the David statue, one of Michelangelo's masterpieces. This was a very good value.

David-love of my life. - Very nice. A little bit overly planned: after free time we were told to meet at one place then walk 1.5 km to the bus. Bus guide was very nice but reluctant to have us go straight to the bus after free time (avoiding a second cab ride for those of us unable to walk 1.5 km). The Academia tour was excellent! A lot of informative discussion. David is spectacular.

Michelangelo’s masterpieces. - It was well worth the money spent to have a tour guide and avoid standing in the long line going into the museum. Our tour guide was interesting and knowledgeable.

Great tour guide - Our tour guide was good and we were happy to skip the lines. Tour guide was interesting. We could understand her and she was charismatic. After the Michelangelo part we just weren’t as interested in the rest. It was just ok. We give Tour guide 5 stars her

Great guide … not sure about the rest - I will admit up front this tour clearly posted that admission was not included. Having said that … I’m still disappointed. The admission is another 20 which makes this tour massively overpriced for a small art gallery with its own website you can buy admission and an audio tour. Our guide was Italian and knowledgeable which is the main benefit. His passion for the art and history was amazing. The group was almost easy to find from the directions on the site and the guys running it friendly. They pushed our tour back 30 minutes and TRIED to reach us to inform so I give them credit. Still left feeling like I overspent for something an extra 15 minutes of research would have cost significantly less.

Terrible headset, heavily accentuated tour guide, don’t book this experience as we were absolutely disappointed. - The headset was so terrible that even though our tour guide was knowledgeable, it ruined the experience. I could only grab about every third word at best. The ambient noise in the museum is so loud that even though our guide spoke English and we were standing right next to her, we couldn’t understand what she was saying. We paid too much for too little. We should have just bought the regular tickets with the guidance provided by the actual museum. We were absolutely impressed by the statue of David, but we should have had a top notch experience for what we paid. At the end of the tour we expressed our disappointment with the extremely poor audio and the only response was, “this happens sometimes.” I told them they needed to invest in better headsets for both the guide and the participants but I don’t think they will make any changes. It’s unfortunate.
