Firenze: Omvisning i domkirkeområdet og billett til klatring i Brunelleschi-kuppelen

Our tour guide was great! The guide was very informative and took really great care of us, keeping us in the shade & out of traffic as much as possible. There really aren't cars in this are, but there are cyclists. I learned more about Bruneschelli, Michaelangelo, and other artists! He pointed out that the artist for the door to the baptistery put his own likeness in the door. Learned about the Roman architecture, how it was expanded upon, and learned about the significance of the placement of the baptistery and cathedral doors facing each other. Guide gave us helpful directions & times, baggage check info for our 3-day ticket. Climb up the Duomo was good exercise & worth it! Those who are less fit, like me, should train for it. Just go up & down stairs a lot for days ahead of time. fanny pack around waist instead of purse. Bottle water OK. no backpacks. Our climb was when heat was 102f/39c was cooler in the stairwell. Had a fan on a lanyard, which helped me staycool.Enjoy!Recommend!

We had a fantastic experience with our tour guide at Santa Maria del Fiore! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and added a great sense of humor to the tour, making the history come alive. Although the dome unexpectedly closed early due to the St. John the Baptist holiday, our guide went above and beyond patiently coordinating with staff to make sure our dome climb passes would still be honored over the next two days. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you missed out on booking a dome climb pass in advance.

We really did enjoy our tour, Claudio was fantastic and knowledgeable.
