Hola! Encantado de conocerte

Francesco

Welcome! My name is Francesco.

As a proud Florentine with deep roots in this incredible city, my heritage in Florence spans many generations. Florence has always been the centerpiece of my life and the source of my greatest inspiration.

I studied Foreign Languages and Literature at the University of Florence. Since 1992, I have worked as a licensed Local Guide, sharing my passion for this city’s history, art, and culture. Over the years, my enthusiasm for guiding has only deepened, enriched by decades of experience and a love for storytelling.

My passions include history, art, and music—especially musicals. I take great pride in two of my greatest treasures: my talented daughter, a musical performer, and my personal library, home to over a thousand books.

For me, beauty in all its forms is something to be celebrated.

I hold several qualifications that enhance the tours I offer:

• Licensed Local Guide

• Hiking Guide Licence

• Second-level Sommelier Certification

• Jubilee Guide Certification

• Ambassador of Florence Greenway Certification

• ...and more

Join me for an unforgettable journey through Florence. Whether it’s uncovering hidden gems or immersing yourself in the city’s rich history and culture, I promise to guide you with the same passion and dedication that has inspired me for over 30 years.

Francesco’s tours of the Uffizi Gallery and Accademia Gallery were incredibly insightful, informative and memorable. Francesco’s knowledge of history and art are extraordinary and we learned so much about Florence, the “school of the world”, during his fascinating tours. Francesco is an engaging storyteller, and a flexible, accommodating and kind tour guide. We look forward to enjoying more tours with Francesco during future visits to Florence and highly recommend Francesco for any tour of Florence! Brilliant Florentine tour guide!

Francesco is an exceptional guide with a wealth of experience and knowledge! If you’re planning a trip to Florence, don’t hesitate to book him — you won’t regret it. His expertise in the history of Florence and its art is absolutely outstanding. We had the pleasure of spending the morning with Francesco as he expertly guided my family of four adults through the Uffizi Gallery. His ability to highlight key pieces and provide rich context for the art and its historical significance truly brought the Renaissance to life. Navigating the Uffizi can be overwhelming, with its vast collection and crowds, but Francesco made sure we maximized our time. He knew exactly where to take us, helping us appreciate both the well-known masterpieces and the hidden gems. Francesco’s passion for art and history was contagious. His tour prompted lots of great discussion at the dinner table later that night. His friendly, approachable demeanor made the experience even more enjoyable. We are already looking forward to booking him again on future trips to Florence. He’s more than just a guide — he’s a true ambassador for this beautiful city!Experienced & Exceptional Guide
