We were the only couple on our private tour with Anthony as our guide. We had Anthony as our guide the day before at the Uffizi Gallery. The tour was fascinating. The Basilica was beautiful inside and out. So much history.

Had a great guide and were lucky enough to be the only 2 that had signed up for the tour that day. The Basilica was full of monuments to the famous Italians buried in the basement. Well worth the time.
