Excellent Orientation to Florence

Our tour was very good. Our guide had a very good knowledge of Florence's history which made the tour both enjoyable and entertaining.

Viewing Florence with new eyes

Alessandro was amazing, we discovered a new side of Florence and he had a lot of patience with my 90 year old grandma. The information he gave us was really interesting.

It was interesting...

It was interesting leaning about the Medici and Pitti families. Also our guide gave us some options to visit after our tour.

Private Florence tour

Our guide was amazing. She met us at our hotel, and gauged our interests to customize our tour. She guided us through the city providing us with extensive details about the history and timeline of the key city sites. It was a nice pace and hit all the highlights. It completely changed my opinion of the city to see it through a historical lens, as I had been underwhelmed prior to the tour.

Okay tour - not worth the price compared to other tours.

Very nice and knowledgeable tour guide, but the tour is a bit too average for the price. It was nice to hear about the city but it was too focussed on general info and fun facts that felt very disjointed rather than a good overview of the history and setting of Florence. We left having seen a lot but knowing very little about the greater history and significance of Florence. Overall, compared to other tours we did in Florence, this one lacked a clear narrative, context, and structure and relies too much on random information about art and architecture.
