Climb the Dome, Own the View : Florence Duomo Tour（ドームに登って、景色を所有）

We really enjoyed the tour, everything was great! Our tour guide Laura was awesome too, very interested and invested in all the information.

We were told to arrive 15-20 minutes before the start time but the guide arrived 18 minutes late with no explanation or apology. When we signed up for this tour we expected to climb the dome first which was what we wanted— we signed up for the 8:15am tour specifically to avoid crowds and heat. The day before the tour we were notified that we wouldn’t be climbing the dome until 10:30 and first was a tour of the outside of the cathedral and the museum. It’s not to say that wasn’t interesting even with a so-so guide, it just wasn’t what we expected when we arranged the tour months in advance.

Good length , unfortunately the baptistry was under construction and the cathedral was a holy day so couldn't enter. Was amazing tour and our guide Debra was great!!

Déborah is great guide, 5 star

PERFECT !!! Very Nice person !

Debora was great. Informative and a good time.

What an amazing experience! And our tour guide Laura was absolutely delightful and a calming presence. She gave us so many wonderful details and truly seemed to love this beautiful sacred place she was sharing with us. Now… This is not for the light hearted however! There are ALOT of stairs - nearly 500. The stair wells are narrow and ONE WAY - after the first 100 or so there is no turning back. The stairs are steep and uneven. You need to be in shape and calm or don’t even try this. The climb gets tighter and the stairs get steeper and harder as you get closer to the top. The top two levels are magnificent to experience. To see the frescos up close is a totally different experience than seeing them from the floor. They are HUGE and you are eye level with them. Just stunning. It will make you emotional - especially the catharsis of it all. Take your time going down. I got a bit dizzy on the way down. But so proud that I was able to do it. I’d like to thank my dog for taking me on those long walks all these years. lol. Definitely a bucket list item while you can physically handle it.

Anastasia was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and conveyed the information very well. The price-performance ratio was not quite right for me.

Very easy instructions to meet our guide, who was very knowledgeable, and moved us through the museum and facts about the Duomo at a good pace. The climb to the top of the Duomo was steep and narrow but this was well documented in the joining instructions and worth it for the incredible views

Anastasia was the best tour guide I’ve ever had! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and funny, and made the whole tour such an enjoyable experience. One thing I really loved was how she spoke fluent English but would also speak in Italian and then explain the word or phrase in English. I found this so cool because it made me feel much more connected to the Italian culture and gave the tour such an authentic feel. She was also very thoughtful with the whole group. She always waited until everyone was together before continuing and made sure nobody was left behind or separated. It really felt like we were experiencing everything together as a group. Anastasia’s personality made the tour even better — she was funny, welcoming and genuinely made everyone feel comfortable. I would absolutely do another tour with her and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Italy!
