The David, a miracle in marble

It is the 8th wonder of the world! Mind blowing! Spectacular! Michelangelo was truly one of a kind. Very easy to access through Viator. The guide’s description of each angle was enlightening and something I would not have considered. Watching the House of David series recently also brought this to life Even more.

Watch out for extra costs.

The tickets for the museum are not included in the cost of the initial Viator purchase. It may have been noted in the booking at the time of booking but I didn’t notice or expect that. It was a cash or PayPal urgently before start time. The tour itself was great. He was concise and thorough. Very fun and informative. My second time with a guided tour of the David and he does not disappoint.

David Tour Skip the Line

Priceless tour botched by changing patron stop off south of Arno River.

We appreciate the tour’s communication availability with us and attempts to get us in with our scheduled tour group. Cruise line tour parking outside of city limits completely changed time tables and made it virtually impossible to make our timed entrance. Please directly communicate with cruises and agents About your bus parking/drop offs. Inordinate walking times will preclude your partipation.
