Excellent

This does allow skipping the line for entrance to Accademia, Duomo and dome climb, which makes it well worth it. Plus private group access to the terrace. It was well organized with 3 staff members doing check-in. The guide was enthusiastic, knowledgable and fun.

My Guide was very knowledgeable - but what everyone needs to understand is that you don't have to wait in line. That is the best bang for the buck.

Know Before You Book

Are children able to take this tour?

Due to security reasons, children under 7 years of age aren't allowed to climb to the Terraces and are therefore unable to participate in this tour. Minors between the ages of 7-17 must be accompanied by an adult to climb the Terraces.

Is this tour accessible for wheelchair users or guests with mobility issues?

Due to conditions inside the Duomo (463 steps and fairly narrow passageways), wheelchair users, those with limited mobility, and anyone with claustrophobia unfortunately cannot be accommodated on this tour.

Does the afternoon tour follow the same route as the morning tour?

Only the morning tour will briefly enter the Florence cathedral. The afternoon tour will enjoy a view of the cathedral's interior from above during the Duomo climb. The visit to the Accademia Gallery remains unchanged.

What is the dress code for this tour?

Due to the religious nature of the Cathedral, all individuals regardless of gender must cover their shoulders and knees. You can bring extra coverings (scarves, etc) to put on just before entering the Cathedral. It is also prohibited to enter the Cathedral and climb to the Terraces and Cupola wearing flip-flops, slippers, clogs and shoes with heels.
