Hidden gem, our guide was excellent, friendly, informative and always ready to answer all questions. I have forgotten the ladies name (sorry). She is definitely an asset to your company. I have already posted on social media to go here and essential to go with you guys to experience this in full.

This is a great experience and recommend to have it after visiting Academia, Pitti Palace and Palazzo Vecchio to answer some of your questions when visiting this place. Our guide tour was very knowledgeable and fluent in English, she was super nice ans patiently answered all of our questions. Definitely recommend this tour.
