Wonderful intro to Florence!
Elizabeth was a wonderful guide and showed us around the less touristy part of Florence. We enjoyed sampling the locals favorite foods and spend some time in the market. We tasted things that we wouldn’t have ordinarily tasted with her guidance. I’d highly recommend any tours with this company. It was an intimate tour with only the four of us and we learned so much!

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!

Marco is a wonderful art historian & guide
We were so fortunate to have Marco as our guide at the Uffizi. He is a great art historian who was able to shepherd us through the large collection and give us a more complete background on the amazing works of art. He is professional, patient, and kind. We highly recommend Marco to guide anyone visiting Florence’s museums and cultural attractions.

A magical Uffizi Tour
Michele was fantastic, charming and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the Uffizi that we visited. He started giving me wonderful details and history from the moment we joined the queue to enter.
I had a great experience and would highly recommend this to anyone who has limited time to visit Florence. I loved this tour and Michele was a large component of my satisfaction.
