Description

Accademia Gallery is one of the most visited museums in all of Florence. Its main attraction is the exquisite Statue of David, however, it offers many more masterpieces and notable works of art. Booking a private tour of the Accademia guarantees you will get the most out of your visit. Firstly, upon arriving at the meeting point, you will be greeted by the agency representative and introduced to your expert guide. Private tour guides come with years of experience and exceptional rating. Next, your guide will lead you to the gallery using a special priority entrance only pausing to pass the security check that is compulsory for everyone. During the following hour, your guide will ensure you won’t miss out on any of the main points of interest such as Michelangelo’s Prisoners and, of course, the Statue of David. You will learn a lot about both the art and the artists.

Amazing David

Anna was amazing! She took time to give us the background of Michelangelo before entering the main exhibit. Anna provided the details you wouldn’t find in history books. We learned who Michelangelo was as person, as well as why he was obsessed with perfection as an artist. She personalized the tour to learn about us, too. In the end, we felt like we’d made a Florentine friend. Thank you for such an amazing experience! John & Lori A.

Information Overload

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. However, she gave us too much information about too few of the exhibits. After an hour of information overload we had to ask her if we could tour the rest of the museum independently.

Informative and friendly guide

Martina, a Florence local, was a very personable and knowledgeable guide. She provided a good overview of the transition of artistic styles from medieval, Renaissance, to Manerismo.
