Marie was a wonderful guide. She was so knowledgeable about all aspects of the museum. We learned some interesting facts about mideveal vs renaissance artworks, the dress and customs of ancient Florence, beautiful old musical instruments and especially learned about Michaelangelo's David. It was a fabulous tour. We highly recommend Marie.
