Amazing tour and amazing guide

If we could give our guide, Aldo, 10/5 we would. He was kind, considerate and super knowledgeable. The walk through Florence was amazing as were the Medici Chapels. This was our best tour in Florence by far. Highly recommended.

We booked a small group...

We booked a small group tour and it ended up just being my husband and me which was a nice surprise. Guisy was a wonderful guide and we enjoyed our morning with her. We learned so much about Florence’s history during The Renaissance and the role of the Medici Family.

A Truly Unforgettable Florence Experience with Emilia!

Emilia was the absolute highlight of our trip to Florence! Her charm, warmth, and deep passion for her city made every moment unforgettable. She brought history to life with such enthusiasm and insight, making us feel not just like tourists, but like welcomed guests in her hometown. Emilia’s energy and love for her job are contagious — she truly made our Florence trip the best it could be. If you’re visiting Florence, do yourself a favor and book a tour with Emilia. She’s simply the best!

Medici Walking Tour Florence

Anthony was the BEST, most fun, most informative guide I’ve ever experienced. Very knowledgeable on ALL the statues, highlights, answered our questions. Knew what was going on in the city, told us more than we could ask for. Highly recommend this guide. Ask for Anthony. We had the most memorable visit to Medici. Best tour ever.

Best Florence walking tour!

Wonderful walking trip through Florence. From Pza Signoria sights, Ponte Vecchio, Pza Republica, San Lorenzo crypt and the Medici chapel to Central Mercado and many special sights and insights along the way. Antonio was incredibly well versed in Italian history and Florentine/Tuscany history which made our walk interesting! We highly recommend this tour!
