Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had a wonderful day with our guide Paolo who customized our private tour. One day in beautiful Florence is not enough but we were able to see & learn about so much! I can’t wait to go back and have Paolo take me around again!

Amazing guided tour; Paula captivated me the for the whole duration of tour in spite of the rainy and cold weather. Her presentation was very detailed and in depth, and was greatly appreciated by the whole group. A must, if you happen to be in Florence!

Paula is an extraordinary guide. The 2 hours tour that she prepared for us was a treat in all regards. We all appreciated her expertise, her terrific sense of humour and her passion. I thought that I knew Florence, but now, after the tour, I realize that I only start really appreciating it.

We had a group of 8 people and shared the privilege of having Paula as our walking tour guide. We had perused the city the night before without knowing any of the history. Walking through it again and learning the historical stories brought Florence to a whole new level. She was smart, informative and passionate about her own city. I would recommend seeking out this wonderful guide and learning about the significance of its history and beauty. Thanks Paula!

I can highly recommend this tour if you want an overall introduction to Florence and its history. The tour was given although we were only two participants! The guide was sweet, knowledgeable and good at making the information interesting and visual.

Extremely interesting insights of history & art of Florence in both medieval and Renaissance era. We very much enjoyed the tour with Elettra, a very knowledgeable lady! We highly recommend it.

For a while, I felt that Florence's Renaissance environment had been generated this amazing person by the misty mistery of the past... That was just a foggy and rainy evening. Two hours with Poula were the best experience during my stay in Florence. Let the Florentians live!

does this include tickets to get inside the Duomo? Can you climb to the top of the dome? Is this a skip the line tour?
