Stunning
Amazing experiences being on top of the Duomo and almost alone. Our guide Giada was extremely knowledgeable, sweet, and able to explain everything in a clear and simple way. Being on top of the city is breath-taking

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.

Fun Experience - This was an enjoyable experience. Climbing the Duomo stairs at night and seeing the church with less crowds was worth it.
