This was a good evening in Florence- restaurant was lovely, the waiting staff were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble and the food was pretty good. The concert was in a church not too far away and it was good. Only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because there was no one there to meet us at any point in the evening, no one to show us where the church was and we were not really sure if we were heading to the right place or not. The waiter kindly gave us directions. Get your guide states that you will be met etc etc. maybe because it was raining they couldn’t be bothered. There was no cohesion between the group which was a bit sad. We could have booked these separately for much less and had the exact same experience. We thought it was going to be a group event and that’s what we were paying and hoping for. It was disappointing.

We so enjoyed our evening. The restaurant was wonderful both food and service. We enjoyed a nice meal. Then we walked around the corner to a little piazza and enjoyed the tenors in a beautiful old church. Their voices were mesmerizing. Ballet dancers were an added touch!

I really enjoyed this experience I only have two things that didn’t sit right with me, firstly was the meal before hand which wasn’t below average my boyfriend didn’t eat the desert as it was some orange flavoured weird cake. Pasta portion was ridiculously small not more than a 6 bites. Starter was probably the best thing. So I would say not good value for money. The opera its self was great and the effort was great and would see them again but wouldn’t book with the meal. Also note if you don’t sit at the front you can’t hear as well.
