Stop At: Galleria dell'Accademia, Via Ricasoli, 58/60, 50122, Florence Italy

We will go back in times and imagine Florence in the times of the Renaissance when genius artists were working back to back competing with each other for a better commission and for world recognition. “He looks like a baker. The marble dust flours all over him and his back is covered with a snowstorm of chips.” - once said Leonardo Da Vinci about Michelangelo, starting a long story of rivalry as soon as he saw David finished.

This tour will take you to the times when the great marble masterpiece were created so that you can imagine Michelangelo at work!

Take your time to stay longer in the Accademia Gallery and discover the Museum of Musical Instruments with the oldest vertical piano in the world and original Stradivari’s viola.

    Our guide, Irina was terrific. She was both knowledgeable and engaged by the subject. She also professionally assisted us in navigating the crowds outside the exhibit.

    The tour guide Eva brought all of the works to life. We loved how she described the sculpting. It was incredible. She was so knowledgeable and clear at explaining the history and methodology.

    We took this private tour with Irina early in the morning when the Accademia was quite quiet. The David statue is spectacular, made even better with the facts and history that Irina brings to life. Having a guide is really worthwhile and Irina has so much knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject, that really adds to the experience.
