Well Worth the Money Great way to experience the majesty of Duomo without crowds and in an exclusive setting. We enjoyed the info and seeing the city of Florence at sunset and in the dark of night. Our guide Gaida was very accommodating and informative. A side note is that if you do this tour in the fall winter or early spring, the view from the terraces will not have much daylight because you start the tour at 5:45.

Take this tour! The small group, and access to the terraces and chapel floor without the crowds was special indeed.. The views of Florence at sunset is breathtaking. Giada, our guide, was very knowledgeable and pleasant!
