ヴェッキオ宮殿の物語 - メディチ家の秘密と神話のシンボル

This guide company was very proactive in communications and helped us alter our tour due to the unexpected civic closing of Palazzo Vecchio on the afternoon we were scheduled for. They were flexible and rescheduled for the time that we were able to do it. Our guide Yulia was very knowledgeable about the site and history, and answered all of our questions.

The museum is unheated in winter. There are not a lot of opportunities to sit down while the guide talks to the group.

Our guide, Daniele, is a master storyteller. He truly brought the era of the Medici to life. Daniele was able to answer all our questions and provided great detail. What a way to learn another history of Florence. Grazie Mille Daniele.

Very good tour and excellent explanation! Katarina's explanation and advice are very valuable.

Very good tour. Very interesting, learned a lot about Firenze and Medici family. Our guide Silvia was awesome!

We cannot overstate how fun today was—a highlight! Our tour was only our guide and the two of us. So worth it. Caterina was amazing! We felt as if our family member from University was telling us stories (and the back-story of intrigue and details not told in the history books)! She was immediately as if we had always known her. Very patient with our questions and also at once ensuring we did not miss something important that added depth to the story. We laughed and also were reflecting on the history as told through the art and sculptures. Of our two weeks in Italy (Rome, Florence, and Verona), this is our only private tour — and we feel so blessed to have had Caterina guide us! Her knowledge and approachability is another hidden gem of Florence!! I can’t imagine trying to understand the Renaissance, political Rome, the influence on/of the Popes, and the play of wealth and art … without a perspective on Cosimo Medici, his profound ambition to escape the “merchant class” label, and associate his family with nobility. Just wow, thank you.

What a wonderful tour! Guilia was the best, full of knowledge and interested stories about the Palace and the Medicis.

We had a lovely couple of hours in Florence doing the 2 hour walk with our Guide Chiara. She gave us lots of information. Clear and straight to the point and very enjoyable. Thank you Chiara

The first time we did a private tour. We tour the Vecchio Palace with Martina, Florentine guide. He gave us an introduction before going into the history of Florence and then we toured the entire palace explaining each of the rooms. Martina being Italian, Spanish masters it very well. It was a nice experience, to repeat. We will recommend this tour and this guide to all who travel to Florence.

We have been fortunate to have Martina for our visit to Palazzo Vecchio. It has been an INCREDIBLE experience, a Fiorentina versed in her land; magnificent private visit in a very professional but close, correct and friendly way, with a knowledge of the history of her city and her works worth admiring. Something unforgettable.
