Fantastico!
Fabio was great. So informative and pleasant tour. Fabio was terrific! He was quite generous with us as Italian language learners. He switched effortlessly between English and Italian throughout the tour for us, allowing us to practice our Italian. An absolute wonderful and refreshing experience….

Perfecto
Eduardo, was excellent from the moment we booked on line. Always responded to texts right away, answered questions, guided us through the process of booking tickets.
We met at the perfect time of the day, entered the Uffizi, and were swept up in his in-depth narrative of the history and art we witnessed. We loved our tour, and Eduardo’s perspective. We wished we booked him for all of the museums.

Dina is Wonderful!
Dina was our host through the Uffizi Gallery for our family. She was delightful from beginning to end and so very knowledgeable about the beautiful works of art in the gallery. Experiencing the Uffizi was SO much more meaningful with Dina to help us understand what we were experiencing. She brought the art and artists to life, as well as those who commissioned the art. Her English is wonderful, too! Thank you Dina for a wonderful experience!
Tour of masterpieces & insights at the Uffizi!

Superb!
Dina shared insights seamlessly combining art, history and local knowledge to keep us enthralled the entire tour. We are an older couple and appreciated her thoughtfulness in shaping the tour to our interests and physical limitations. She knows where all the shortcuts, elevators and WCs are! Our only regret is for not booking other tours with her. Thanks again Dina!
