Happy memories - The Duomo is amazing, and the express tour gave me just enough history to understand it, without too much detail. The guide made it fun and easy, and I walked away with great photos and happy memories.

mislead - "Small Group Tour Skip-the-Line". Probably our worst experience in florence. You mislead readers with these headlines to book tours and take money without offering anything. What else could "skip the line" mean. We paid you, to tell us come from 09.30 stand in line and when the cathedral opens you will enter (for everyone the entrance is free). what should anyone think that is? Also the small groups cannot be 25 people. that is not a small group.
