What a stunning beauty that the Florence Baptistery is - has such a good energy and feeling when inside, stooped in history, you feel very special to be here.

The Florence Baptistery is a reminder of the exquisite talent of Renaissance artists and craftsmen. The Baptistry is octagonal; its intended purpose is to baptize the believers of Florence. The Chistian faith was perpetuated. by the bronze doors, which narrate the immortal history of Christianity. The original doors were replaced by duplicates in modern days. The original doors are in the Museum. Brunelleschi's Dome is a related building, as is the Florence Cathedral. We saw the Baptistery. it is a testament. to Christian faith and Florentine artistry.

The Baptistery is under construction, a huge scaffolding occupies the entire center of the building blocking the entire view! The visitor is forced to look at the photos printed on the tarpaulin surrounding all the scrap metal, to replace what he should have seen! Even the ceiling of the dome is hidden by a net. A real scandal because despite these major inconveniences, the ticket remains at the usual price!

No value for the money

Wow! So impressed with our tour guide’s expertise and knowledge. She is finishing her masters in Renaissance Art and her passion for the subjects is so is so contagious. It was a magical experience. You should climb to Duomo at least once in your life for the up close views of the artwork inside the Duomo and the spectacular views of Florence. Just don’t climb it hungover or in wide legged pants. Wear tennis shoes and go when it’s cool outside.

Museum with various exhibits about the Basilica that can be visited via the Bruneschellini Pass. It’s conveniently across the Basilica and there were quite a few field trips and tour groups present. There’s multiple levels and we went from bottom to top. Restrooms are available as well as a water fountain. You go through a security check first and then will scan your ticket. You can purchase the Brunnelschini Pass and then use that to enter the museum at any time.

Elevators and stairs are available. There are also a couple of benches at the top level to sit if you need a break. We spent about an hour and a half to two hours here.

The guide was very knowledgeable and took her time to explain everything. The sites are beautiful and everyone that comes to Florence should visit, regardless of their religious believes. Art is universal! Loved the tour!

Very knowledgeable and charming guide. I would give 5 stars, but after asking us to arrive 10 minutes early, the tour company rep ( guy with the paperwork and earphones) showed up nearly 15 minutes late, with no apologies. So the 6 of us stood around being bothered by the usual Piazza del Duomo beggars and scammers for 25 minutes before the tour could start.

And the earphones were not quality, they were the old style flat sided little cones that do not stay in your ear for more than 5 seconds before getting loose, and then you can’t hear the guide.

Two recommendations for the tour company: more professional attitude to timekeeping, and get some earphones with the clip behind to keep them in the customers’ ears.
