Our guide, Michele, was amazing! He was engaging, knowledgeable, and had a genuine passion for art. We learned so much and would never have had the memorable experience we had without his expert guidance. Highly recommend!

Let It Be My Italy’s September Excursion
I am owner of Let It Be My Italy tours. My group and I enjoyed our experience very much and I plan on using your services in the future! Grazie mille amici!
Excellent! Totally recommended
Easy to get the tickets. Great communication with the guides, we found them easily. Fast entrance, organized, not extremely long but the explanation of David and the history around the sculptures was very useful. Gabriella is a great guide!
Maravilloso David de Miguel Angel
The tour is not very economical, but it was very good. Silvia introduced us to the life of MA in a very pleasant way, starting with her childhood, adolescence with the Medici until she became the great genius of the 3 arts (A, E and P). Very complete visit to the Academy
