    The tour was very interesting and well organized. There was not enough people wanting to do a tour in French this day (I was the only one) so it was in English. But that was not a problem for me. The guide of the morning had an excellent English and knew a lot about Florence and art history. The guide of the afternoon knew also a lot about Florence and art history, and was very friendly. The museums are really great. The Accademia Gallery contains mainly a sculpture of Giambologna (Jean de Boulogne) and serveral ones of Michelangelo, including its David. It is marvellous. The Uffizi gallery contains mainly byzantine and roman works and Boticelli paintings. A lot of other paintings are very interesting too. Definitely worth the price.
