Fantastico!

Fabio was great. So informative and pleasant tour. Fabio was terrific! He was quite generous with us as Italian language learners. He switched effortlessly between English and Italian throughout the tour for us, allowing us to practice our Italian. An absolute wonderful and refreshing experience….

Enjoyable tour

We had an enjoyable time exploring Florence with Guily. It was a combination of a food and city tour. The tour was informative and interesting.

Florence Guides - Explore Florence

Even when visiting the major tourist attractions, your private guide in Florence will be able to add more to your trip by filling you in on their local knowledge of the facts, the background, and the details of what you’re seeing. Not only will you get the local inside scoop on the bigger attractions, you’ll also get to discover the hidden gems in Florence that aren’t listed in most tourist guide books. Your private guide in Florence will take you off the beaten track so you can experience Florence like a local, and explore smaller and less well known attractions and neighbourhoods.

Whether you’re coming alone or with a group of friends, your Florence private guide will love showing you around their city with pride. Their local know-how will mean you have all the tips and tricks you need to navigate the city with ease. They’ll make sure you get the most out of your trip even if you’re there for just a short amount of time.

Your private guide in Florence will start by asking you more about what you like to do. They’ll then create a program and recommend tours and attractions based on your specific interests. So there’s no need for you to be researching for weeks before your trip or leafing through guide books to find what you might enjoy. You can simply turn up in Florence and your Florence private guide will recommend you an itinerary which offers an experience of the city that no guide book can provide! And best of all, they’ll be at hand to offer advice and tips throughout the course of your trip. Want a taste of authentic Florence cuisine? There’s no better way to sample the local dishes than with a home cooked dinner by your local host.

Other than recommending where to go and what to do in Florence, your local host will be able to guide you on the best way to get around and can even take you around. This saves a lot of precious travel time, especially if you’re on a short trip and want to squeeze in as much as possible before you leave! If you need help conversing with other locals or making any bookings at all, your Florence private guide will be more than happy to help. Get ready to enjoy a truly unique and personalised Tuscan experience with your guide by your side!
