Hello and welcome to Florence!
You can call me Giuly :)
With a degree in Italian Language and Literature, my passion for Italian culture, language, history, art, and cuisine has always been a driving force in my life. This love brought me to Florence, the incredible birthplace of the Renaissance, thirty years ago. Ever since, I’ve been captivated by the magic of this city, and I can’t wait to share that excitement with you! Together, we’ll explore every corner of Florence, uncover its hidden stories, and journey through the ages to where the Renaissance began.
In addition to my academic background, I furthered my education here in Florence by studying Tourism and Marketing. My studies opened opportunities for me to work as a translator and interpreter in Italy, bridging Italian and Turkish across various fields—including business, tourism, politics, government, and law. To expand my expertise, I completed specialized training to become a licensed tour guide of Florence. For the past 12 years, I’ve been honored to work as a professional tour guide in Florence and Tuscany, sharing my passion and knowledge with visitors from all over the world.
I’m here to help you experience the magic of this region with tailor-made tours designed around your interests. Whether it’s a Florence city tour, visits to Tuscany’s charming towns, wine tastings, concerts, operas, local festivals, antique markets, gourmet experiences, olive oil tastings, or shopping for unique finds, I’ll ensure your time here is unforgettable.
