Great tour with a knowledgeable guide
We did a tour with Eduardo as our intro to Florence . He was very communicative , friendly and accomodating from the start . He spoke very well and was clearly knowledgeable about all the history and interesting stories of Florence . We were entertained by his stories, we all learnt a great deal and he gave us great tips on things to see and do for the rest of our time there as well. I will definitely recommend Eduardo for anyone looking for a personalised walking tour in Florence !

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!
