Rondreisopties
Reisroute
We gaan terug in de tijd en stellen ons Florence voor in de tijd van de Renaissance toen geniale kunstenaars rug aan rug werkten en met elkaar wedijverden voor een betere opdracht en voor wereldwijde erkenning. “Hij ziet eruit als een bakker. Het marmerstof strijkt over hem heen en zijn rug is bedekt met een sneeuwstorm van snippers.” - zei Leonardo Da Vinci ooit over Michelangelo, en begon een lang verhaal van rivaliteit zodra hij David zag eindigen. Deze tour neemt je mee naar de tijd dat het grote marmeren meesterwerk werd gemaakt, zodat je je Michelangelo aan het werk kunt voorstellen! Neem de tijd om langer in de Galleria dell'Accademia te blijven en ontdek het Muziekinstrumentenmuseum met de oudste verticale piano ter wereld en de originele altviool van Stradivari.

Great tour. Guide Irena was amazing and very knowledgeable! Couldn’t have asked for a better person to show us around.
We went on three tours with Irina and they were all excellent. The tour to the Accademia was focused on David and its creation and journey. Irina is an entertaining and informative speaker and we enjoyed her descriptions and knowledge of how Michelangelo went about his art and comparisons with less talented sculptors. By including references to the various exhibits in the Accademia her account was fascinating and she combines this with iPad presentation of some of the history. It’s a complete breakdown of how David came into being and why it is where it is now. This could be very dry, but Irina makes it entertaining throughout. The other major benefit of booking with Irina is that she pre-books all the tickets and makes sure they’re available for you at the times you want and you never have to queue. To be highly recommended.
My husband and I really enjoyed our tour of the Accademia Gallery with Irina. She is a wonderful tour guide and we learned so much about Michelangelo from her. I definitely recommend this tour if you want to get the most out of your experience.
Irina was wonderful. Her amazing knowledge made the sculptures come to life. We would definitely go on another tour with her.
Irina was a great guide. She came with a tablet full of illustrations to show us as she talked. Very knowledgeable and continuously pointed out things to see that we would have missed without her guidance. Our questions were answered immediately and in depth.
We were able to be some of the very first people to enter in the early morning tour with our private guide, Irina. We were able to walk right up to David, take unobstructed photos, and see every detail Irina explained right up close. (Just 20 minutes later the room was packed with visitors and getting close would have been impossible!) She was incredibly knowledgeable and truly brought the history and process to life. She’s an amazing guide and I will be pointing my friends who travel to Florence straight to her. Don’t hesitate to book this one!
This tour was exceptional. Irina was really friendly and knowledgeable. There is no way we would’ve experienced David and the other works in the gallery were we to have done this tour on our own, and without her adding all of the extra insights that she did. If you come to see David, you should absolutely do so with a guide. And if you do, you should book this tour with her.
Our guide, Irina, was very knowledgeable and brought a lot of new information to our experience. The museum for David is admittedly small but learning all the new information regarding Michaelangelo and the David itself was enlightening.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It truly means a lot to know that the experience felt enriching and added something new to your visit. The Accademia Gallery may be small, but Michelangelo’s David holds such an incredible depth of history, artistry, and meaning—and I’m so happy you found those insights enlightening. It was a real pleasure guiding you and your family through the world of Michelangelo and sharing the story behind one of Florence’s most iconic masterpieces. I hope to welcome you back for more discoveries in Florence soon! Warmly, - Irina
Wear super comfortable sneakers. Indoor and outdoor. Lots of walking. But AMAZING experience. TOTALLY knowledgeable guide! 100% do it!!!
Dear Suzanne, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! I’m so happy you enjoyed the experience — and yes, comfortable sneakers are definitely the secret to exploring Florence properly. There’s so much beauty to discover both inside the museums and walking through the historic streets. It was truly a pleasure guiding you, and I’m delighted the Academia tour made your visit to Florence even more special. I hope to see you again for more discoveries in this incredible city! Warmly, Irina
Irina provided amazing insights regarding the David, the Academy and Michelangelo’s life/works. Strongly recommend this tour.
Thank you so much, Mark — your words truly mean more to me than I can say. It was an absolute pleasure sharing that time with you at the Accademia, and I’m deeply grateful that you felt the passion and care I put into telling Michelangelo’s story and bringing David to life. Guiding you through his world, his struggles, and his genius was a joy, and knowing that those insights resonated with you makes my work incredibly rewarding. Thank you for your kindness, your attention, and for taking the time to leave your recommendation. I’ll carry your words with me — they are a beautiful reminder of why I love what I do. 🙏✨
