We had such a fun morning on this tour! Our kids were totally into the stories about Michelangelo and his famous David, and we actually learned a bunch too. The guide made everything really easy to follow and kept it entertaining for all of us. Definitely a must-do if you’re in Florence with kids!

Bob N. — United States Our guide Marko made Florence feel like a giant storybook, and our kids loved the games and fun facts about Michelangelo. Seeing David up close was jaw-dropping for all of us, and the tour kept a perfect balance between learning and exploring.
