Irina hat uns so viel mehr über die Geschichte der Medicis, Michel Angelos und der Päpste beigebracht als wir in einem Einzigen Buch/Guide hätten finden können - wir sind dankbar für dieses bereichernde Erlebnis

This is a great tour and Irina is one of the best guides we had in Florence. She gives great details on walking through the Medici family genealogy so that you can follow through the chapel. She also had great knowledge of the chapel architecture and the history behind it. The one relic she did not know about she went and researched it and contacted us to let us know about it. Talk about going the extra mile.
