We really enjoyed our tour with Dina. She was very friendly and knowledgeable and got the children engaged as much as possible. We did the tour as soon as we arrived in Florence to get our bearings which was a great idea. Great way to discover Florence

Dina is full of knowledge about her city — its history, its art, its architecture, and so crucially, its food!! But what makes Dina so special is that she is full of warmth and joy. She makes it a priority to make your tour exactly what you want and helps you (above and beyond) every step of the way. Dina made our stay in Florence so special and I will recommend her as a guide to everyone I know making a trip to Florence. Dina is an absolute 🌟 star

We had an incredible full-day tour of Florence with Dina as our private guide, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience! Our group consisted of two families with four teenagers, and Dina made everything seamless and enjoyable. She was so adaptable, adjusting the tour on the fly to meet everyone's needs. Her knowledge of Florence’s history and art was outstanding, and we truly appreciated the insights she shared. Dina's English was perfect, making it easy for us all to understand and communicate with her. We highly recommend Dina—she allowed us to maximize our short time in Florence! 100% would recommend!We had a wonderful time with Dina!

My son and I enjoyed our private tour it was all we were looking for and more!
Eleonora provided an individualized experience full of interesting facts and background information, and even sparkled a few refreshing more light-hearted pieces of information into our tour.
I definitely recommend Eleonora, and will book her again next time I will come to Rome.

Dina was the best! We booked a Highlights and hidden gems tour in Florence for my husband and 2 kids 15/13.
Dina was truly awesome. Communication was fantastic pre tour and during - she provided us with so many fun facts and interesting stories. (Ones you can’t google!) We saw sights, learned the history and her restaurant knowledge is A+.
Dina was so easy to be with, very personable and fun. She is also so kind and super helpful. My daughter, 13 missed the tour because she was sick. Dina had checked in with me to see how she was doing and if we needed anything. Wow! How incredibly thoughtful. Dina goes above and beyond. Don’t hesitate i highly recommend booking with Dina!!Best tour and guide! So interesting & fun!

Danielle was a fantastic guide! He accommodated my boyfriends pescatarian diet and his knowledge of the historical neighborhoods we navigated through made this so worth it! Danielle was so kind and friendly and had a smile on his face through the pouring rain on his birthday! We have already revisited the spots he took us to as well as the recommendations he made! So worth it!A Must DO!

We had a tour of Florence with Dina and from the moment we met, I knew we’d made the right choice.
Dina is a rare combination of passionate, deeply knowledgable, charming and funny.
I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who is thinking of doing anything with a local in Florence.
Her care, kindness and love for her city are unmatched in my opinion xTotally Enchanting

Daniele, we asked Daniele to take us to sights and neighbourhoods away from the highlights in central historic room. This he did admirably. Collecting the 4 of us from our hotel, he took us to places we would not have gone to or found by ourselves. His anecdotes and humour also enlivened the walk and have given us a very good memory of a part of hidden Rome. We will happily recommend Daniele and hope to be able to walk with him again on a future visit to RomeA walk through time

I have been to Rome many times but saw places on our tour with Simone that I had never heard of. Her knowledge of the social and political history was impressive and as a native Roman she was able to give nuances of the day tto day lives as lived today and in the past

What a great tour! Our guide Eleonora made us learn about some roman food specialties but also about the neighborhoods we visited and about Italian culture. She was so funny that the 2.5 hours we spent with her were flying. I could have followed her for a few more hours. Thanks for this wonderful experience, Eleonora!Great tour thanks to Eleonora

Daniele was an amazing guide and was like the dear Roman friend we all wish we had. His insights into Rome, Roman culture and history, architecture, and his knowledge of Italy as a whole is unmatched. Time spent with Daniele was time well spent, and my family and I were very happy to have spent 1.5 engaging hours with him. We wish it were more! I would encourage anyone who wants a kind, genuine, engaging and worldly Roman Friend to choose Daniele as your guide.The Roman Friend You Wish You Had

Our tour with Daniele was one of the best experiences in our 4.5 weeks in Europe. We did the tour with him on the first afternoon in Rome so was a perfect introduction. His explanations were clear and really interesting. He took the time to understand what we were interested in and incorporated this in his tour. We didn't go to the 'big'tourist spots in Rome - he took us to amazing street food (some of the places we revisited in the following days), we wound through neighbourhoods we may not have discovered on our own and had a really great three hours. Thank you - my husband and I really enjoyed it - and our three teenagers absolutely loved it. Excellent introduction to Rome

Did a tour with Eleonora today and she was amazing! Yes this was a food tour but we also learned about the history of Rome and the area we were touring while walking. We learned so many things about the different foods that the Romans love and how the foods were produced to make them more regional. We were warned to come hungry and we did however we still couldn’t finish all of the different foods we were offered. We couldn’t even eat dinner tonight because we were still full!!Amazing Food Tour!!

Daniele engaged the adults and 11 year old in the group equally. Daniele sent me a proposal for our tour that focused on Hidden Gems. Everyone learned something new! The best part was that it didn’t feel like a tour, it felt like we were walking with a good friend who knew the area. Can’t wait until we can return and book Daniele again!Perfect Tour Guide for Entire Family

Daniele was wonderful. His career as an architect shines through and gaves his comments authority as we toured central Rome. But his extensive knowledge of history, culture were outstanding. Friendly, easy going, of course. I would recommend EVERYONE take a Rome tour with Daniele., and do it the day you arrive !

We met up with Eleonora on a cold and very rainy afternoon, feeling miserable and thinking we didn't really want to do this tour!
Eleonora soon dispelled any negative feelings we had and we embarked upon a wonderful tour of some key tourists venues but also some little known "hidden gems". Eleonora was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and extremely good company.
We enjoyed an espresso in a nice cafe surrounded by statuary and a spritz in an upbeat bar popular with the locals.
we continued with the tour which included a visit to the Pantheon and Piazza Navona.
we almost forgot about the rain and cold. A very pleasant afternoon despite adverse weather conditions. A very pleasent afternoon despite adverse weather conditions

Dina is a wonderful guide. Her knowledge of the Medici family and the history of Florence is exceptional. I went on two tours with her and both were great.
Dina contacted me well before my arrival to ask any information or help that I might need and continuously was in contact during my stay. She even communicated with other guides of tours that I took to ensure the experience I received was not overlapped. She helped me with recommendations to local restaurants and boutique artisan shops.
She is generous and exceptionally well organised. I have a genuine respect for Dina and I am grateful and satisfied with her as a guide:
Highly recommended

Dina weaves the stories of art, history, culture and even the flavors of Florence into a masterpiece herself. The passion she has for her city and her ability to bring it all to her guests in an engaging and interactive way is magical. She invites curiosity and gives answers well beyond a tour book guide or script. She brings the Firenze she so passionately loves to vivid life. You could spend hours or multiple days with Dina and only want to explore more of this beautiful city with its rich history, art and culture. I can’t recommend Dina more highly.

I found this last minute. We didn't have a lot of time to spend in Rome and we all wanted to try some good, authentic food. Did not disappoint! Roberto was super friendly, laid back, really knew his local history as well as the food! He brought us around the area, through a passage basically only known to locals and the Jewish Ghetto was really interesting too! It was like walking around with a new friend. And even though its a "walking tour" don't worry, you dont have to walk and eat at the same time. Roberto found nice relaxing places to eat. We had a hard time finishing as it was so much food! Thanks again, Roberto & Stephano! Awesome way to see the real Rome!

Important!!! I hope I have your attention because giving 10/10 doesn’t do Dina justice. Dina went out of her way to engage our 17 year old niece during our 5 hour tour of Florence exploring and curtailing the tour to her interests! We learned so many interesting things besides having the best porchetta sandwiches during our Italy trip. We Highly recommend Dina - besides knowing her history and the local culture, she’s a wonderful, interesting, engaging person that makes your day extra special for any age. It’s our sincere hope to catch up with her on our next Italian adventure ❤️😊An Amazing Day!

I would love to write a fabulous review but, Roberto never showed up!!
We waited for 45mins and we never saw him. We even were asking people that looked a little like him but with no result. At our meeting time of 10.00am the square was not that busy so it was not as if you could not find us. We took photos to prove we were there and even asked a coffee shop there for a receipt to prove also.
After 45min we left and went to a fantastic deli in the square were we found out that Roberto does take his tours to. I have messaged Roberto via the app but received no reply. Worst thing also….
The money was still taken out of my account!!A No Show

Of course, it is impossible to admire all the beauty the historical centre of the Eternal City has to offer, but the walking tour sure was a great start.
Our guide Simona was really nice and knowledgeable . She both fed us facts and legends about each site we visited. Se took her time, didn’t rush and we got to see some parts of the city we wouldn’t have seen otherwise and we got to put some things into context.
I highly recommend.Rome kick off tour

What an exceptional experience with Dina from initial booking through farewell. Dina immediately reached out to confirm our tour and asked about any special requirements (interesting for a 13yr old). She touched base in the days before our tour, including the evening before to remind us to have breakfast, bring water, etc. On the day of our tour it was 100+ degrees in Florence and Dina made sure to keep us in the shade, stop for breaks, and find the best shady spots. Her knowledge of Florence and its history is fantastic; she kept the stories interesting and engaged with our daughter throughout out the day. She truly went above and beyond to make this a special experience; from taking pictures, making dinner recommendations, sharing the BEST Cappucino spot and sharing her art history knowledge. We can’t recommend Dina enough - she’s fantastic, you will be lucky to spend a day with her!Fantastic Florence with Dina
