Federica is the guide to choose
I can not say enough about what an amazing 3 hours I experienced with Federica. She made my short solo trip to Florence memorable, informative and friendly. Her knowledge of history and art is notable and I felt like I could have talked to her all day. I suggest booking with her in the beginning of your trip because she gave me excellent recomendations for other things to do. I will be back to experience more of Florence with Federica.
