What makes this Private Florence Walking Tour different from a standard Accademia ticket?

A standard Accademia ticket gets you in the door alone, with a wait in line beforehand and no context once inside. This Private Florence Walking Tour includes skip-the-line entry, a private guide, and two more stops, Piazza della Signoria and the Bargello, that connect Michelangelo's David to the wider story of Florentine sculpture.
Is this a Private art historian guided walking tour, or just a ticket with a guide?

Yes. Your guide is trained in art history, not just site logistics, so the commentary goes beyond dates and names into why each sculptor made the choices they did.
Is this a good private tour of Florence for art lovers?

It's built for exactly that. This private tour of Florence moves at a pace built around looking closely, not checking sites off a list, with room to ask questions your guide can actually answer.
Is this a private tour of Michelangelo and Donatello's David statues?

Yes. You'll see Michelangelo's David at the Accademia and Donatello's David at the Bargello in the same afternoon, along with the public copy in Piazza della Signoria and a fourth David your guide reveals along the way.
Is this a good Florence art history private tour for a first visit?

Yes. As a Florence art history private tour built to explain, not just show, it works well whether this is your first time in Florence or your fifth.
How many people are on the tour?

We keep groups small (max 10) for an intimate experience—more like a night out with friends than a formal tour.
Where do we meet, and where does the tour end?

The tour meets at Plaza Santa Ana, by the statue of Calderón de la Barca, and ends at Botín, where you'll stay for dinner after the guided portion concludes.
What should I bring?

Comfortable shoes, a camera, and an appetite. The rest? We've got covered.
Can guests with mobility needs join this tour?

This tour includes some walking and a boat boarding process, so it isn't currently suitable for guests with mobility impairments or wheelchairs. Hearing aids work fine with the live guide audio, and we're happy to talk through details before you book.
