Our guide planned a comprehensive walking tour of the city. It was easy to meet him at a designated point. As a Florence native, he shared many interesting and uncommonly known things about Florence.

We did this tour after morning travel from Rome, so we were a bit tired. I would suggest you have some rest before this tour as it is a walking tour for 3 hours. Our guide had so much knowledge about Florence, but she seemed to get a little irritated because we did not know as much as she or we were not as engaging as she may have liked. She was a very kind lady, but I would make sure you are well rested.

This tour is perfect for people who either don’t have much time in Florence or who want to orient themselves to the city at the beginning of their stay. Sara was an excellent guide. Of all of the private tours we took on this trip (Rome, Vatican, and Colosseum) Sara was the most knowledgeable of the guides. We were traveling with a toddler and Sara was always willing to stop for a short break to feed or diaper the baby. Excellent private tour and a great value. Thanks so much, Sara!

Excelente nuestro guía Luis, muy atento, paciente y ameno, se adaptó a nuestro ritmo, ya que teníamos una persona mayor en el grupo, y nos ilustró con muy buenos comentarios y anécdotas. Nos encantó el recorrido por la ciudad, y luego la frutilla de la torta, el David de Miguel Ángel. Lo recomiendo totalmente.
