Francesca is an excellent guide and is hugely knowledgable about history, politics and the history of art. We covered a lot of ground in our three hours with her both literally and metaphorically (lots of questions asked and answered). She gave us a fantastic recommendation for lunch in Brera allowing us to avoid tourist restaurants.

Perfect day
Francesca was an excellent communicator from the start, answering all my messages and requests very promptly. She met me at the exact time and location that I requested. She is very knowledgeable about the history of Milan and took me to many points of interest, hidden museums and churches that I would’ve missed. She also informed me about many cultural aspects of Milan including the food and fashion scene. Very enjoyable 3 hours. Efficient crash course on Milan, since I had very limited time

Better than most tours of Florence
I like that Elisabetta was able to tell the stories of Florentines from medieval times to contemporary history. She knew a lot about culture, food and neighborhood hidden gems. I have been to Florence countless times and Elisabetta was able to show me new things. I highly recommend!

More Than We Expected
We had a wonderful time being taken around Florence with Michelle. He was very comfortable and genuine with tons of interesting information about the history of the city and great food recommendations. Michelle is a kind soul and is definitely someone we’d like to see coming back in the future
