Tour With Ana - A True Gem of Florence
I am so grateful that I had a tour with Ana today in Florence. Not only is she able to clearly explain the real treasures and history of Florence, she is obviously very passionate about this amazing city, it's history and culinary delights.
The unexpected bonus was that I really enjoyed our conversations about life from someone living here and will remember it forever - I feel that I will definitely be back to Florence 🙏

Florence with Martina
Martina was far and away the best tour guide we’ve had. She showed us little hidden gems throughout the city that we would never have noticed. She tied in history with the art and context to bring it all alive. She was excited to show us the city and modify her plan to accommodate our wishes. Fantastic tour and guide.
