Spiritual awakening by Michelangelo: discover the red thread that links David to the Sistine Chapel! This is not standard experience above David , this is the MarioGesu's tour with priority entrance , Mariogesu is a native guide and an actor that bring you inside Michelangelo's code , the creation process, a wonderful life message. His tour is high profile, aimed at couples, families with children and friends, for those who want to know the secret of Michelangelo. If the David is the fulcrum, the surprise will be to discover how the artist "surpasses" the David with his "Prisoners", just a few meters away, created through the "unfinished" style. By choosing this experience, easily understandable to everyone because it is expressed with images and metaphors (therefore easy to understand even for the little ones), you will participate in a unique perspective: the red thread that binds Michelangelo's entire work, the artistic and spiritual reason of the greatest artist of all time.

This was our best tour of David over the years. Mario’s interpretation of Michaelangello’s lifetime work was unique and interesting. A step above the standard tour guide prose.

Our guide Mario was fantastic. We do not ordinarily opt for guided tours, but in this case it was well worth it. His passion for what he does and knowledge of the subject matter is impressive. He made it fun and interactive. Very educational. Worth every penny!!

There were some SNAFUs with hot sun
AND it’s a lot of money ( 45 euros plus 20 euro admission fee-total of 65 euros per person.
Mario was great- very engaging and endearing . I know it’s all show, but when the tour is over you want to have a beer with the guy

Great tour, very informational! I would recommend booking this as Mario’s storytelling is something you can’t get from just a book

Mario was so informative and entertaining and his energy is envious. To see a famous statue is one thing, but to be pulled into the world of what the artist may have been thinking and some contextual history opens your eyes to something way more interesting and valuable. This was no boring talk-at-you lecture, but an engaging thought-provoking experience. A bonus: everyone in the group (Mario keeps it small) was engaged and friendly, so we felt like a little friend group for our short time together. Thank you, Mario. We hope to see you again!

Our guided Accademia tour with Mario was much better / more interesting than we expected. We had been to Rome and seen Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam / Man at Sistine Chapel, and Mario’s explanation of it — along with the magnificent David and Michelangelo’s unfinished sculptures — as a reflection of the great artist’s spiritual mindset and his creative process was fascinating. Highly recommend!

Very detailed explanation of Michael Angelo from the David to the Creation Painting in the Sistine Chapel. The flow was very interesting.
