"We had an absolutely fantastic tour of the Uffizi and the academia to see David. Cristina was warm, welcoming and did a great job trying to get our children engaged. We also helped us customise the tour to ensure we had break for the kids and was helped us book all the tickets we needed to skip the lines.
She is super super knowledgable about the art works, buildings, and history, and delivered everything at the perfect level for us.
I would recommend Cristina to anybody who wants a great guide in Florence. "

Great Food Tour with Ana!
"My husband and I recently took the food tour with Ana, and it was a wonderful experience. She took us to several local spots we would not have discovered on our own, allowing us to try new foods and explore parts of Florence we might have otherwise missed. Ana knows so much history about Florence that she shared with us along the way. We also appreciated that it was a private tour, just the two of us with Ana. This was definitely a highlight of our time in Florence and we highly recommend her!"
"We had an excellent tour with Alessandra! She was very friendly, knowledgeable and so enthusiastic about the beautiful city of Florence. We realized that we had art in common, specifically street art, and she introduced us to an amazing gallery & artist!! She told us of a free chamber music concert and we ended up going to it. It was definitely an unexpected highlight. We told her that we were going to Tuscany for a few days and she recommended a few beautiful places to visit. We ended up going to those places & would have never known if it hadn’t been for her!! We feel that she went above and beyond for us on our tour. It was an absolutely amazing experience and we highly recommend Alessandra!!"

"My family enjoyed the walking tour of Florence with Cristina. She took extra steps to make sure our 5-year-old daughter felt included and had fun. She showed us some unique spots we wouldn’t have seen on our own. You won’t go wrong with choosing her. "

Wonderful time with Dina’s friend!
"Dina had a family emergency and helped us out by getting us another tour guide who was phenomenal. Michell was so knowledgeable and I never once felt lost. He led us through the chapters of art history so effortlessly. We had so much a great time. Thank you Dina!"
"We had a great afternoon with Matteo. He did a great job of keeping the tour interesting for us and out 3 kids, under 12. The explanations were sufficiently detailed and was able to provide in depth explanations to questions. He also did a great job with suggestions for other parts of our trip. Would definitely recommend!!"

Knowledgeable, encouraging and friendly
"Cristina tailored her Uffizi tour to suit our different requirements. She gave a good chronological history of the art that we were seeing and showed us how we could identify the different periods based on the style and technique of the artist. Cristina was very encouraging and gave positive reinforcement when we recognised features in the paintings which confirmed the point she was making. We were surprised how much we learned about the Medici and their place in the social, political and religious history of Florence.
Cristina’s English was superb and she communicated with us clearly and eloquently.
Thank you Cristina for a great start to out holiday in Florence."
