Florence Art and History Tour - Impressive tour by "Annette M." with Babylon Tours who was quite obviously well qualified and prepared. She shared a wealth of expert commentary and reflections for the artwork and in depth and detailed knowledge of the history of Florence, Italy, Italians, buildings, monuments, and statues. Although it was not said, Annette must be a historian. In addition, she was very easy to talk with her and a great host.

Incredible visit and tour of Florence - Giacomo is an incredible storyteller who transformed these museums and the city of Florence into a tapestry of interwoven narratives bringing history to life! He captivated the attention of a traveler as young as 11 and as old as 48 with his passion for the city he was raised in and clearly loves. We could have listened to him share for many more hours!

Great artist info; not overwhelming; the Davis is truly stunning. - Awesome tour. Guide was knowledgeable and interesting (Larisa). Also attentive to our needs such as thirst, bathroom, fatigue. Not overwhelming with too many details; just enough if you are a beginner at art history. Great seeing the David first!

Outstanding tour - Not too much art, not too much history, the tour was the perfect blend of both. Eleanora was charming, knowledgeable, and entertaining. We highly recommend this tour. The small group size was perfect.

Story behind the stories - Giacomo, Jack:as per the label, was amazing. His depth of knowledge kept us engaged throughout our morning with him. Getting the story behind the stories helped us make sense of the overwhelming offering that Florence had for us. Understanding the motivations behind so many of the pieces, including David, and the architecture of the city was fantastico! 🤗☺️
