“This experience is totally worthy, I recommend you download the app and the audio guide before going to the meeting point, arrive 15 minutes early and go in the morning if possible.”
Review of Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, with skip-the-line entry, audio or multimedia guide, Medici rooms, Vasari halls, and tower views.
“Skip the lines are a must and money well spent. Otherwise, plan on spending some serious wait time for the larger venues. As far as the tours themselves, all of our tour guides were very knowledgeable and their English was fine. However, for us the actual live guide was not a make or break, especially for the smaller museums or cathedrals. It would really depend on your specific preferences.”

Review of Florence’s electric golf cart tour, with Ponte Vecchio, Palazzo Pitti, Michelangelo Square, audio guide, price, and practical tips.
“It was a fabulous tour and we would recommend. Our guide Aldo was vey knowledgable, answered our questions and ensured we had enough information on each landmark/building. We didn’t use the audio commentary as Aldo was such fun and full of facts. He stopped when we wanted to stop, especially at the wine windows, which was utterly hilarious. And he stopped at a local church in the city, for a quick visit inside which was beautiful and very moving. Our trip took us over the bridge to get a beautiful Birds Eye view over the city. This was a great tour, we saw so much, we learned so much and…”

Visit Florence’s Santa Maria Novella with skip-the-line entry and a multimedia guide covering Gothic art, Renaissance works, and cloisters.
“It was great & the church and grounds were stunning. So beautiful & historic. The only thing that I felt uncomfortable with was being asked to leave my passport or drivers license in exchange for the audio guide. Plus that office closed at 4pm & we arrived at 3. It was quite rushed. Also, the audio guides were on iPads & it was complicated to make it work if the pages timed out! I didn’t even end up using it because of that.”
