We spent a glorious afternoon with Paula at the Uffizi Gallery yesterday. Our family loves Art and History, but Art galleries can be overwhelming. Paula was a marvelous story-teller who made the world of the paintings come to life - she knew historical context to explain why the paintings were revolutionary or important, she knew which details to point out that we would be able to relate to, and she knew exactly where to have us stand to appreciate different perspectives. Her pacing was perfect - enough time on enough highlights but not so much as to be exhausting. We were enthralled the entire time. As a fun bonus, she also took us to a beautiful shady spot along the Arno river for a lovely view of the bridge and some refreshing juices. I highly recommend Paula!!
